I have been using Web Hosting services since 2009. I have tried all types of hosting from Shared, Virtual Private Server (VPS) to Dedicated Servers. Every hosting type has advantages and disadvantages and use cases. Shared hosting is best for low traffic static sites while VPS server is best for medium traffic which comes with impressive scalability and upgrades on the go.
In this article, I will list the best and cheapest VPS Hosting providers in 2020 that I have come across after extensive research and at times being ripped off by providers. The list is totally unbiased, I have not received any freebies/compensation from any of the mentioned providers nor there is any affiliate link. So lets begin!
