Title: USA VPS's by CrownCloud | Starts at 0.4 BTC/Month !
Post by: CrownCloud on July 08, 2012, 01:33:45 PM
Hello,

The VPS is a new product of : CrownCloud (http://crowncloud.net)

You can "reserve" a VPS now by placing a order here, we wont take any payment now, payment will be taken only when we're launching the VPS's.

The VPS's come in limited stock for each plan and "reserving" a spot now will be useful if you want to get a high quality VPS

What If I change my mind ?
Sure, No problems, the VPS which you "reserved" will be given to someone else who also "reserved" one.

So I reserve now and get the VPS now ?
No, The VPS will be created only after we launch the service and payment for the VPS is made.

Follow this link to reserve one, Please use a valid email ID, as that's the only way for us to contact you.

Hello,
I wanted to get a general idea if you would be interested in buying a VPS in the US ?

The VPS will be a new product of : CrownCloud (http://crowncloud.net)

The VPS plans and pricing would be* :

Plan 1 :
Guaranteed 128 MB RAM
10 GB HDD
100 GB bandwidth
1 IPv4
Cost : 1 BTC / Month

Plan 2 :
Guaranteed 256 MB RAM
20 GB HDD
200 GB bandwidth
1 IPv4
Cost : 1.5 BTC / Month

Plan 3 :
Guaranteed 512 MB RAM
30 GB HDD
300 GB bandwidth
1 IPv4
Cost : 2 BTC / Month



Extra IPv4's will cost extra, IPv6 will roll in later for free.

*Cost and specs may increase or reduce with change in BTC / USD price.





Prices aren't particularly competitive. And now for
the stuff that really matters:

What's your policy wrt running one of those on the VPS:

   - torrent node
   - bitcoin node
   - tor node

Hey,
Prices will reduce with increase in BTC / USD price.

Torrent node = Yes, As long as it does not affect network, is legal and brings us no trouble.
Bitcoin node = Yes, As long as it does not hammer the Disk too much.
Tor = No (Just for safety reasons / may allow later)

That still won't make them competitive on a USD basis.

It will make them worse, in fact, especially if you've bought
a long term contract in BTC.

In other words : you have zero competitive edge.

We could look into offering more resources with the current pricing. More bandwidth and harddisk storage and a few extras like offsite backup storage.

Apart from that the other things like tor/torrents are to be decided by the data
center and afaik tor is not allowed by the datacenter.

Look, not trying to give you a headache here,just
trying to figure out in what way your offering is
different from the gazillion VPS resellers out there.

Why is buying a VPS with you using bitcoins in any way
better than buying a VPS from a random provider and
paying with my credit card ?

Hey,
Yup, your points are completely valid and I've thought about them and noted them.

Well reasons to buy from CrownCloud are :
- We're here since the last 6 months
- We've proven good uptime and reliability with our other offerings.
- We don't overload any of our services and provide proof of it, for example we provide network usage stats of all our vpn nodes.
- We Accept Bitcoin :D
