    Never heard of any of them TBH. I've never been in the market to buy a VPS though. May I ask why you're looking at one exactly? I see a lot of people purchasing them when they could easily get away with decent shared hosting.

    Well, there's two reasons. First, I want to get to know my way around a server so I can help others with it and just have the knowledge. The second is that I have 3 site ideas in my head, and I would rather host them all on one server rather than multiple hosting accounts.

    Fair enough, sounds like a VPS might well be for you then ;) Good luck!

    Never even heard of these companies, your question about them may be better targetted at web hosting talk if you've not already asked over there

    I haven't heard of them but that doesnt mean they are good or reliable. Your best choice is to search for review on them. Like Ashley said you can also try WebHostingTalk.

    That was one of the ones I was looking at. They have great plans. I'll probably go with them. Why do you want me to contact you if I do?

    DirectSpace have a lot of bad reviews about them at WHT, so much so, I'd avoid them like a barge pole...

    l0l Ashley.. well its up to the OP, he needs to do his own research and not listen to others. Tierney, its best for you to review each one, and choose.

    I have a referral link :P. If you don't mind, also if you go with them you might want to see about 10% as a token to get you to buy. I asked and received. :)
    I'm using them and I have not had a spec of trouble or downtime.

    Sweet. I'll probably go with them, then. And it'll be a while, but I'd be happy to use your refferal link. :)

    Ooo...really? Damn. They looked so promising.
