Why VPS prices are hard to compare
Three things distort VPS price comparisons. Introductory pricing: many US brands advertise a first-term price that doubles on renewal; we record the regular price and note the deal on the provider page. Excluded items: some clouds bill the IPv4 address, root storage or VAT separately. Billing terms: annual or multi-year prepayment can cut the monthly equivalent by a third or more. Price per gigabyte of RAM is the fairest single number, and it is shown in every table.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a VPS cost per month?
As of October 23, 2026, a VPS costs $0.48 to about $40 a month for typical plans. Across our 160 providers the median entry plan is $5.59, a 1 GB plan costs a median $5.00 and a 4 GB plan $17.00 (from $3.00 at ServerCheap). Windows adds a licence of roughly $5–20 a month. The cheapest plan we track is Scaleway at $0.48.
What is the cheapest VPS?
Scaleway at $0.48 per month (STARDUST1-S: 1 vCPU, 1 GB RAM, 10 GB SSD, unmetered traffic). The cheapest-VPS ranking lists every plan at $5 or less.
Why is a Windows VPS more expensive?
Microsoft licenses Windows Server per core, and providers either build that into the plan or add it as a monthly fee, usually $5–20. Windows also needs more RAM than Linux, so the smallest usable plan is larger.
Is a VPS cheaper than shared hosting?
The cheapest VPS plans now cost about the same as shared hosting ($2–5 a month), but you manage the server yourself. Managed VPS plans with cPanel cost more, typically $20–60.
