Hi guys, I read a lot of posts on BHW, I reply on a lot of threads created by other people but rarely create my own so I wanted to share something with all of you, some of you might already know about it but some might not and it could help the ones just starting that are low on cash.
So here it is, a way to get a free Windows/Linux VPS for 1 year, here are the specs :
- 30Gb Hdd ( you?ll have around 11Gb free after the windows is installed, could be more if you install linux)
- 1Gb of RAM
- 1 virtual processor at 2.49Ghz
- OS: Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard or several versions of linux
- 1GB monthly free traffic ( if you go over they will charge you $0.12 per 1Gb which is almost free as well
)
What you will need :
- a credit card - you will not be billed but it's required to create the account
- a phone number - they will call to verify identity (robot not human)
- 5-15 minutes to set everything up the first time
How to get it? It's simple, it's an Amazon offer for all new AWS accounts, here is where you start :
Hit the get started today button and follow all the steps they put you through, at the end you will have your very own VPS, free for 1 year. Be prepared to spend a little time filling everything up as they didn't exactly make this a 2 step installation program as wordpress
You have all the info you need to do it on your own, in case you want step by step instructions to do this, I spent most of today creating this post about it, if you get stuck anywhere maybe it can help.
Hope everybody likes this freebie, let me know what you think
