Ahoy Sea Dogs!
Today we will examine a VPS which claims to be “cheap” and “seo”. It sounds really sweet to my pirate ears, so let me introduce CheapSeoVPS now!
Their history starts in June 2012 as cheapseovps.net / cheapseovps.com . From the start they were providing Windows VPS machines packaged with SEO tools and then they introduced clean Windows VPS boxes.
VPS offer
CheapSeoVPS tempts us with 3 different lines of boxes offered. The first one is a quite standard line of VPS machines (with SSD based alternatives available).
The second one consists of Windows VPS with preinstalled SEO tools. The last option is to get an individual account on a big machine packed with tons of SEO tool goodies. Let’s open the treasue box and see the details.
Windows VPS line
This is a fairly standard, sweet priced line of Windows boxes. You can also get SSD backed alternative setups.

What is the differene between a Windows VPS with SEO tools and a remote desktop account?
If you get a VPS you will be a real captain of the machine – you’ll get an administrator account. You can install and uninstall any program you wish. You will have guaranteed resources available. You will get also some SEO tools preinstalled for you.
If you choose a remote desktop account you will be one of many users on a big shared Windows box administered by the provider. You will have access to the SEO tools already installed and nothing more.
Support and Terms of Service
I had a bit of conversation with the CheapSeoVPS support team, asking them many questions. The response time varried from 5 minutes to 1 business day. It’s ok since we’re in different time zones. All my questions were answered and I’m happy with the support provided.
As for the Terms of Service – we do not get any kind of money back policy: all sales are final, our account could be terminated on provider discretion. VPS hosting policy is short and clear “We do not except email spamming without proxies.”. It’s SEO VPS, aye!
VPS Benchmark
Our CheapSeoVPS test server is the smallest 768MB RAM machine virtualized using the QEMU technology. What our benchmarking tools say about this VPS?

The CPU and RAM speed is good, however the disk speed is below average.
Now let’s see the network performance. Average download speed on 1 Gb/s port according to speedtest.net is 478.46 Mb/s , while upload is an amazing 966,46 Mb/s – both rock stable. Wow!
With results like that I just had to test it with another peer server located in other country. What I got? 376.27 Mb/s download with 759.61 Mb/s upload. It’s still very, very good.
There is about 380MB of RAM occupied after the startup, which is a standard value for this kind of machine.
To make the testing complete let’s check the responsiveness.
Place | Avg. ping |
Germany | 15 ms |
USA / Chicago | 105 ms |
CheapSeoVPS servers are located in France. Average ping time is very good and shows that you can work comfortably when connecting from Europe. If you’re US based you’re network packets will have to sail through Atlantic Ocean, so will have a standard over-Atlantic
experience.
I’m trying to convince Chris from CheapSeoVPS to let us test one of the Windows SEO packages and measure the real seo performance.
Thank you for your honest review. I just wanted to tell you that all our SSD VPS servers are located on Canada. Let me know if you like to test these too.
