I have a python program that scrapes personal information from behind a login. The way it works the program logs into the website. enters the data(saved in a .txt file list) into one of the search field one at a time then scrapes the data one by one and stores it in an excel. Currently i am running this from my laptop. But i can only run it when im not using the laptop as it interferes/ distracts w.e i am doing.

I thought about using a RDP to install python and run my program 24/7. But i don't want to use a hacked one as all data will be lost if its get caught out.

Can anyone recommend a reasonable priced non-hacked RDP or an alternative method of hosting my program?

Thanks in advance
 
Try Heroku. It's a cheap, secure, fast cloud platform with nice documentation.
 
Other options: get the cheapest (but dependable) vps/dedicated host that the money can buy.
Aws, digital ocean, linode comes to my mind; although I haven't really hosted any python site/script with aws and linode yet. Should work fine though.
 
I used to use hyonix RDP. They have a BST here and the support is great too.

Agreed, hyonix does work for me. Running a few small ones over there, but on Linux.
 
Thank you for the replies I will do some research on each recommendation :)
