Cheap ≠ oversold at vShield
Most VPS under $5/mo share the same physical cores between 20 to 50 virtual machines. When a neighbor runs a heavy workload, your site slows down. This model is called overselling.
At vShield, even plan S ($12.99/mo) runs on KVM with strictly reserved vCPU and RAM. You pay more than some low-cost competitors, but you get predictable performance — that's the trade-off we stand behind.
Same technical foundation as higher tiers
Plan S includes NVMe storage (40 GB), unmetered 1 Gbps connectivity and automatic DDoS mitigation — the same features as Gold or Enterprise plans, just at a smaller scale.
When your traffic or workload grows, upgrading happens from the client panel. No migration to handle, no IP change, same support team.

Frequently Asked Questions - Cheap VPS
Price, dedicated resources and upgrades.
Is a cheap VPS oversold?
Not at vShield. Entry plans also use KVM with reserved vCPU and RAM. You do not share cores with neighbors.
What's the starting price?
$12.99/mo for plan S, with NVMe and DDoS mitigation included.
Is anti-DDoS included on small plans?
Yes, on all plans, including entry-level.
Can I upgrade later?
Yes, from the customer panel. No complex migration to plan for.
What use cases is it suitable for?
Website, small game server, bot, staging or personal project. When traffic or players grow, move up one tier.
How does vShield compare to OVH or DigitalOcean on entry plans?
OVH and DigitalOcean offer cheaper plans (from $3-5/mo), but on shared infrastructure or with optional DDoS mitigation. At vShield, plan S at $12.99/mo includes reserved KVM vCPUs, NVMe and DDoS mitigation — no optional line items to add. The positioning is: 'the cheapest dedicated VPS', not 'the cheapest period'.
