For Lao Zuo's vast netizen group, the demand for VPS host is also increasing with the need of building a website.

Please search for relevant comments and offers before you consider it.).

In 2021, the competition among the major cloud service providers will be particularly fierce, but it should be favorable for our users, so that the cost will be lower and the choice space will be larger. However, if we are building a website or a stable project, we should not be too cheap, but more stable and service oriented. Different businesses have different characteristics, and any business and line cannot be stable all the time. What we need to do is regular observation and data backup.

Friendly Reminder ： The following is a list of commonly used domestic and foreign VPS hosts and servers introduced by Lao Zuo. They are all host products, not tools used for bad purposes. All hosts need to be used for regular station building and other regular purposes.

Summary of VPS selection and use

The cheap VPS host can be used for learning, testing and drilling projects, and also for building websites. No matter which VPS we use, it is better to back up data regularly to avoid accidents. Relatively speaking, we need to pay more attention to these problems for cheap VPS hosts. Any business, even the old brand, has instability or service lag. We need to always pay attention to our own products, because only our own choice and experience are the most important, and comments can only be reference.

PS: If we choose any domestic or foreign VPS host company, we must use it regularly. If it takes up CPU resources for a long time, as well as functions such as SPAM that are not allowed, it will be banned from servers or even accounts by the company.
