Get A Free Dedicated Server For 90 Days

Filed under Web Hosting

EDIT : THE 90 DAY OFFER HAS ENDED AND HAS NOW BEEN REPLACED BY A 50% REBATE.

Jumpline must be out of their mind. They are offering you a free VDS (Virtual Dedicated Server) for 90 days, no purchase required. How cool is that?

What Is A VDS?

VDS means Virtual Dedicated Server. It’s also known as a VPS or Virtual Private Server.

Basically, there are three types of web hosting:

Shared Hosting: Users are sharing a single webserver. This is usually the cheapest type of hosting.
Virtual Dedicated Server: Users have full control over their own virtual private server. The virtual web server is hosted on a shared physical server.
Dedicated Server: Users have their own physical web server. This is usually the most expensive type of web hosting.

Why Should You Have A VDS?

Flexibility: You get full control over your webserver so you can install whatever software or tool you need to run your online business. You can also manage all of your webserver’s configuration files.
Performance: Although you are sharing a physical server, there are a minimum of resources (memory, CPU, etc.) assigned to your VDS. And unlike shared hosting, having the full control of the OS gives you the possibility to tweak your webserver’s performance settings.
Security And Reliability: When you host your website on a shared hosting account, you are at the mercy of other users. So if one of your “neighbors” hosts an unsecured website on the same server, then you are at risk. With a VDS, every user has their own independent operating system so if it’s being attacked, it won’t affect your server.
Scalability: As your resources (hard disk, cpu, memory, etc.) are all virtual, upgrading your server is done within a couple of clicks and no downtime (or very little).
Price: A VDS offers all the same features as a physical server but for just a small fraction of the price.

And Why Would You Go With Jumpline?

Jumpline has a very dedicated and professional staff comprised of people who actually care about helping you. They can easily be contacted by phone, email or through their ticket system. Phone calls are answered within 30 seconds and tickets are resolved under 2 hours.

That reason alone is enough for me to recommend Jumpline.

But there are other reasons, just compare their price and features to the competition:
