    Thumbs up Is there really any free VPS hosting?

    I've seen many people talking about Free VPS.

    I googled for it about an hour but just found some dead links.
    Also I can see some people providing free vps for posting on their forums,
    but my actual question is if there are companies providing free vps hosting,
    and are those for really free and not a trial?

    I'm definitely looking for one, if yes please mention their website.

    Sure there are if by free you mean no money, many companies will sponsor you if there is something in it for them such as traffic or sign ups.

    There are also VPS hosts with affiliate schemes, put the work in and get credit to redeem against a VPS.

    With current IPv4 issues, I think no where and it won't be (exceptions may exist but not more than very few).

    Sponsorship or affiliate may be much more possible, though.

    But there is free Shared Hosting, and that is for sure! you may get a free subdomain as well, and others lets you point your own domain to it just like paid shared hosting. The return is usually that they have paid upgrades that you can do when you need more resources than the free account.

    free as in beer... no. through proper sponsorship or affiliate programs, probably yes.
    SysAdmin.xyz
    Having severs with customer data on it without proper monitoring is like having one night stand without using protections - eventually, there will be an 'oh s**t!' moment.

    Best of Luck looking for "free". Like others are saying, maybe a swap if you have something the host could use or maybe a bonus for selling, etc. But nothing in life is free.

    I remember seeing low-resource IPv6 VPSes offered for free a while back, so they definitely do happen.

    However, you can get VPSes (with IPv4, of course) almost for free. I have seen (and gotten) VPS deals for under 10 EUR per year.

    ISPServer at least used to offer a trial. I believe it was just a regular VPS that they reset once per day.

    As far as I know, there are no providers, who offer a free VPS service and also for life time.

    I saw a place that gave free VPS for life for charities... But since I don't run charities, I didn't care much to remember who it was.

    Perhaps not too on-the-topic here...mycpanel.co.uk, which got its 5 seconds fame for providing free VPS, seems to be in deadpool now as well, their website does not even resolve at the moment...

    If there were a location to get a free VPS allot of illegal activity would be coming from those IP address.

    Seriously you can find a VPS for less that a dang burger from Burger King, A month. I cannot understand why why people have issues with the prices on hosting there is nothing so cheap you will spend on monthly. You spend more money on toilet paper and a pack soda. Than on a hosting account that can bring you money.

    It does not make a difference if it's $0.01 or $10,000 if you have no way to get the money to the host.
