Your choices may vary depending on your budget, but all our recommendations will allow you to easily switch from a shared hosting plan: you would be paying same or less amount of money.
DigitalOcean
A very popular VPS, with great API and a number of operating systems to choose from. You can make use of a number of data center locations. Some of them have IPv6 support. Snapshot images are also great – you can easily restore your VPS from a snapshot. Plans start from $5 per month, but you can opt out to per hour payment to test how they work. SSD disks are provided with every plan.
Linode
This VPS provider is known for its stability and needs no introduction. Like DigitalOcean, they have SSD disks for each plan.
Vultr
Some say that Vultr supersedes DigitalOcean. We can say that by all means they supersede by the number of locations, and they are little less cheaper than DigitalOcean’s already quite affordable plans.
Bonus. Russia based VPS
If you’re looking to establish business in Europe or Asia, it is best to choose a VPS hosting plan with data center closest to your customers. Russia is a popular choice if you’re looking for cheap VPS in Europe. The datacenter in this case is usually located in Moscow. The main downside: to register, you have to either use Google Translate or possess some Russian language skills.
FirstVDS
The most prominent Russian VPS hosting provider with plans starting from $5 / month. Provides SSD disks with both KVM and Xen virtualization types.
