VPS Request for two websites
Hi LET,
I am looking for a VPS that can support two websites. I am currently hosting my startup website and a photography site. The photography site will get very low traffic and my startup has just started get a some visitors, but will be small amount.
Budget = $8/month <
Wants:
DDOS protection
US-Based
1GB-2GB ram
At least 1GbPS link

Budget is more than enough for our new ultra-fast NVME SSD KVM VPS plans: http://www.smarthost.net/vps-hosting.php?ims=let
I recommend @Francisco KVM slice: [https://buyvm.net/kvm-dedicated-server-slices/](https://buyvm.net/kvm-dedica ted-server-slices/)
DirectAdmin makes taking care of two simple websites painless and you can easily scale up storage with an added block storage slab if you start to run out of space with your pictures.
Would I be able to use the 1GB or should I opt for 2GB?
Honestly you should be fine with 512MB if you are just looking to host two small websites. If you use full page caching, they could become two high traffic sites without the need to use a bigger plan...
You can check @eva2000's centminmod (https://centminmod.com) for an easy to run optimized stack.
DA comes with all plans, so whatever you like.

Is NY sold out?
Why is your openvz vps more expensive than your NVMe=?
From your experience so far: How much resources (especially RAM) does DA need when only used privately (not for hosting many clients)? I remember you saying smth. like DA recommends 1GB RAM so taking that into account wouldn't 2GB RAM make more sense here, or is the actual RAM usage way smaller?
I got a lot of people running it on 512's w/o complaint.
The only heads up I got from the developers was to make sure there was a swap partition available during install time since the compilings can get a bit busy.

Knew that question was coming... :-)
Older legacy platform, more expensive for us to run currently.
We actually get less revenue generated out of those nodes proportionally compared to our newer KVM NVME nodes.
Eventually the OpenVZ offerings will get migrated on to newer hardware platforms, reducing our OPEX costs, and we'll lower pricing on that.
But for now...we're just pushing the NVME KVM platform hard, and have tons of excess capacity and availability there.
