Where our data comes from

Provider and plan details come from each provider's public pricing pages and documentation. We record resources (vCPU, RAM, storage, bandwidth) and the advertised monthly price, and refresh them regularly. Prices still vary by region and promotion, so we always tell you to confirm the final figure on the provider's own site.

How we rank

Our value score is a transparent calculation based on the resources a plan includes relative to its price. It is not influenced by any provider relationship. When we recommend plans for a workload, we filter by the recommended sizing and rank by value, with managed plans first only where a managed setup is genuinely advised.

Independence

We are not paid by hosting providers and take no money to feature, rank or review them. Links to providers are plain outbound links. Our only goal is to point you to the best value host for your needs.
