Stop shopping on signup prices alone

The cheapest line on a pricing page is often a temporary list price, not what you will pay in month 13. Hostinger KVM tiers are the clearest example in our set: the intro rate can look like a Contabo/Hetzner win until renewal.

Our position: rank on the price you will still pay after the promo — or treat the intro as a deliberate short lease. If you need predictable burn for a client or a SaaS, prefer DigitalOcean, Linode, Vultr, or Hetzner list rates.

Use the VPS Finder with a real RAM floor, then open the price tracker so you can see when our stored list prices move. Sibling reads: RAM per dollar · Cheapest VPS guide.
