Alternatives to Linode Shared CPU: 1GB RAM, 1 Core

Linode offers a wide selection of VPSs with shared CPU cores from data centers in Europe, North America, Asia and Australia. All of these services have the peculiar Linode characteristic of being tremendously overpriced regardless of the costs of network peering, electricity, wages and the red tape in the country and data center they operate from. Let's analyze their cheapest, entry-level plan, which has a CPU core shared with other tenants on the host server and is configured as follows:

Linode 1GB, 1CPU (shared core)

  • CPU vCores:1 (model may not be chosen)
  • RAM: 1 GB
  • Storage: 25 GB SSD
  • Bandwidth: 1 TB/month
  • IPv4:
  • IPv6:
  • Location: Worldwide
Price: $5.00/month

The VPS is billed monthly and its price is constant across all the locations in which it is offered, so that Singapore—one of the most expensive locations on Earth for data centers—ends up having the same price tag for the state of Washington. Compare this to some contrasting alternatives currently found in our database, shown right under here; you can search for more VPSs using the form on the sidebar. All results are dynamically generated from the database. Note that the monthly prices displayed below were obtained by dividing the annual prices by 12.
