This Is the Best VPS Host in Europe (and probably the world) 

i also heard that if someone tries to ddos you, contabo takes away the server. so apparently they have no protection either lol

yup, it's not reliable at all, happened at the worse time for me. 3 days in a row (Germany server). No notifications. It's using a very old system I think.

@@cmdaltctrjust look at their control and billing panels lmao

@@lilgoonch7525 your fault for not using cloudflare lol

I have been with Contabo for about 5 years now. The real problem with it is it's shared vCPU. I have recently been experiencing bussy node syndrome meaning I have to reboot my VPS every hour or so since someone is hogging resources. If you can get on a non bussy node Contabo is worth it for an amazing deal, I as of late have been hitting against this a lot. In general avoid shared CPU's as they tend to get oversold. I'm seriously considering moving to an VDS to avoid this issue.

They ban Crypto servers too. Although you can use it for the rest and it's a good option.

Okay, I can look into this. The 200MB/sec is simply the maximum speed at which data can come into and leave your VPS.

@@TonyTeachesTech How many visitors manage in 200MB/sec

@@mushi2881 assuming each page is 2 MB, that's 100 visitors/sec

@@TonyTeachesTech Thanks

@@TonyTeachesTech that's Mb/s, with a 2mb page you can do 12.5 users a second

You bet!

not true, 5eur/mth and then dozens per months just to add a panel and ssl..

​@@davidepattibiomed89these are more so luxury items. You only pay for them if you or your customers need them. I've been using letsencrypt for free ssl for years. As well as I'm able to manage my hosting needs via ssh, but there are also free to use panels out there. You are paying a premium for ease of use. Also keep in mind that a piece of the panel pie needs to be kick backed to the panel maker. It's a lot cheaper on a small scale then hiring a webmaster, if it really is an issue you can take a few days to learn the required skills to use an linux shell.

Contabo setup fee is $7 which is nothing compared to resources available and considering you'll be hosting on their servers for years to come!

@@talleyrand9530 Their resources are the problem here. You just get some „up to“ and nothing guaranteed. About the years to come: that’s something you could say about every provider you choose.

@@starfox-germany I don't follow dude. I set up my server with them on Sept 28 and everything is going great! And it's all there, RAM, CPU, and Space I can monitor it from the terminal and it's real I don't get why you're questioning their offer.

@@talleyrand9530 Maybe because I used their servers for more than just 5 days.

​@@starfox-germany Hey man. 2 weeks later, it looks like you were right. Response time is horrible and it's costing me more than the money I saved with Contabo. Any good alts? I have a library website for downloading classic books and it gets around 2k visitors a day.

use ovh

How did you determine that these hosting services have strong issues on ddos securing and nulling ips?

@@TonyTeachesTech Firstly out of own experience and here in Germany, they do not have the highest reputation. The issue accrues usually over a longer time span. If you search a little you can find numerous experiences of the same issues especially with DDOS attacks or IP'S which are spam listed. Anyway, their prices are great even though I found that the performance isn't generally as good on a VPS from them. Another huge difference is that its a way less easy on contabo to set up proper clusters or even Kubernetes. OVH you can read the same about them but I haven't been there. I have Heztner and DO at the moment. I do like Hetzner even though there are several reports of physical drives getting pulled in their german data center by the German police. I don't know for the US once, that's where I am with them.

All providers are expensive for managed servers

Hi Jordan! Check out this video for getting started with a WordPress site on Contabo ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_RmyrIQ75zo.html

I know. I touched on this subject in another one of my videos ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yjk36fv3Km4.html ... I use Let's Encrypt (free) pretty much everywhere ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ghZXFyIyK1o.html

This is something I can look into

I think I looked into this, but this information wasn't public. I would have to do a speed test or ask their customer service. Side note: unless you have streaming or loads of concurrent users, this limit won't matter much

Vultr depending on the location you get ranges from 1gigabit shared port to 10gigabit shared port, the faster locations for network are Dallas and Miami

I'm not sure. I haven't done any email hosting with Contabo yet

Ports open ... But in case u sending spam emails .. They will ban your accounts

I'm using contabo port 25 for email service.

Don't use them for email servers. The IP reputations are very low.

@@varunaeeriyaulla what you recommend then for web hosting and email hosting?

Haha you're absolutely right! Whoops :)

There is no limit

No. These are mostly used for "headless" servers that you only interact with them via a web browser or command line.

Contabo is comparable to Vultr, but lacking in some features. Regarding performance, I have a video coming out Thursday that compares Contabo to Vultr, Linode, and DigitalOcean

It will not be possible to hide your IP address as this needs to be public information so you can access it on the internet. Am I understand you correctly?

@@TonyTeachesTech No Tony, for example if someone type my ip they need to be redirect to my main domain, how to do that?

@@TonyTeachesTech Thanks Tony 👍❤️

Not at this time

You're welcome :)

I don't know as I did not track these metrics

@@TonyTeachesTech Okay. I found the Hosting Solution. StackLinux

If you'd like to host multiple websites on Nginx: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-P7W4iYkFaOU.html If you'd like to host multiple websites on Apache: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lGSRDV2IQhw.html

That's correct

Very welcome

You're welcome

Sorry, I'm not sure how to help you

👌

Great thanks!

That really depends on your use case. Cost would be one benefit of Contabo

Yes. And if you're looking for an actual PC with a GUI and Windows, check this out ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-npRMUjHSw8o.html

Great to hear that

I do have this video about Vultr HF ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CdJVFaXOSZc.html

@@TonyTeachesTech I saw that one, what i mean is a video thats shows contabo and vultr high frequency side by side

You can get an official core count with a command like lscpu

@@TonyTeachesTech Thank you. I didn't know that, so I've opted for a 6 vCPU, next time ill choose the lscpu .

I'm not sure I understand your question

It is possible to configure a computer like a server but you have to do the setup or pay someone to do it for you. There may also be show stoppers depending on your internet provider and router. You'll need to not be on double NAT and be allowed to open ports(port forwarding) also some ISP's straight up don't allow you to selfhost. It's going to take some learning to be able to do it. If you life in a western country it likely would cost more in opportunity cost in hours then you'd spent on renting from Contabo in the next 5 years. Also keep in mind hardware, energy and internet costs. As you are working on a very small scale you cant get good rates like these hosting providers.

Are you familiar with any VPS providers based out of Singapore to get me started?

​@@TonyTeachesTech I am not sure if there are a mainstream/well-known and dedicated Singaporean VPS/hosting company, since I'm not a Singaporean myself. But for Asia region, every major cloud company has Singapore as their sole Asia region service (while in Europe for example, they have bunch of data centers in a different location). The major company that has Singapore includes Vultr, DigitalOcean, Linode, Google Cloud, UpCloud, etc. I feel like everything has to be Singapore-centered (from every Asian online games server, to web-applications) even though there are now multiple commercialized data centers that I can think of. That includes China (mainly monopolized by Alibaba cloud) and one in Jakarta (Fairly new like, BiznetGio.co.id) or even in Australia (but to be fair they are geographically so far from everyone else lol). I am always wondering, is it true that Singapore's cloud infrastructures or data center is better for Asian in general? I am sorry if I am missing something. Tips: I heard that UpCloud has the best Singapore VPS since they claimed to have a superior Storage performance and Compute performance than basically everyone else. Hopefully you can help Asian out with this one, sorry if this turned out to be a full essay lol, and pardon my English.

@@TonyTeachesTech updates: Digital ocean has Singapore and Mumbai India data centers. Vultr has Korea, Japan and Singapore, Google Cloud has Taiwan, Singapore, Hongkong, Japan, Korea, and Jakarta. Maybe you can start by comparing this different available locations, but still everyone else mainly has singapore for asia server. Only the giant cloud company seems to have at least 2 options for Asia region.

​@@vrsx Thanks for doing this research. It might take a while, but stay tuned for a video on this topic :)

Not that I've come across

Any luck?
