Our Virtual Private Servers are a combination of the latest server-grade hardware components and industry-leading virtualization software OpenVZ. Each VPS is a truly unique and private environment with its own guaranteed resources and full root access. This system gives you the same level of root access as a dedicated server whilst sharing the cost of the hardware. With a VPS you are virtually running your own server but at a fraction of the cost. Our international VPS packages are hosted in Los Angeles, USA and offer unlimited bandwidth.
