VPS servers
Prices in 2026
- Due to changes in legislation, from January 1, 2026, LLC Mchost becomes a VAT payer. The cost of all services provided starting from 01/01/2026 will be increased by the amount of VAT 5%.
- This change has nothing to do with an increase in prices for services; the entire proceeds of VAT are paid to the budget.
- Legal Notice: mchost2026.pdf
- We regret to inform you that from January 1, 2026 there will be a price increase.
- The price increase is forced: all our partners and contractors have already made adjustments to their prices for 2026 and we have to compensate for this difference.

FAQ
-
What is VPS hosting?
Renting a virtual server is the ideal solution for those who need complete control over their environment. You get dedicated resources: a CPU, RAM, and storage on high-speed drives. It’s a full-fledged Linux server where you decide which software to install. We use KVM virtualization to ensure stable performance without interference from other users. Your project runs on dedicated resources, which is critical for online stores and complex applications. The server will be ready to go in less than 10 minutes after payment — simply select a configuration in your account dashboard.
-
How do VPS servers differ from virtual hosting?
With standard hosting, you’re limited by the provider’s settings and share resources with hundreds of neighbors. A VPS is your own private space with guaranteed vCPU and RAM specifications. Here, you work via SSH, customize the web server to your needs, and aren’t dependent on third-party scripts. If traffic increases, scaling is available in just a couple of clicks — simply add more power. This approach ensures predictable loading speeds and high uptime, which is crucial for business projects. You pay for actual resources, not for abstract disk space..
-
What type of virtualization is used on VPS?
We use KVM technology — the industry standard for high-quality isolation. Each virtual machine is allocated physical CPU cores and its own memory block. This prevents situations where someone else’s load “freezes” your site. Thanks to this, you get genuine disk subsystem and network performance. This foundation allows you to run resource-intensive tasks, from databases to Docker containers. You can be sure: the advertised specifications match reality, and the server runs stably 24/7.
-
Which Linux distributions are available for installation on VDS?
In the control panel, you’ll find the latest images: Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, and CentOS Stream. Our support team will advise you on which distribution best suits your tech stack to avoid conflicts and unnecessary configuration in the future.
-
What is root access and why is it needed?
It’s superuser privileges that give you full control over the system. With root access, you can modify web server configurations, install any modules, and manage services without restrictions. Connecting via SSH using a key provides secure access to the terminal from anywhere in the world. This freedom is essential for developers to test code or configure complex environments. If you don’t want to spend time on administration, we’ll help with the basic setup, but you’ll be the one deciding what to install on the server.
-
How is the server rental cost calculated?
The price is based on the configuration: the number of cores, the amount of RAM, and the type of storage. Discounts apply for long-term rentals, making the use of powerful servers more cost-effective.
-
Can I migrate a website from another hosting provider?
Yes, we assist with project migration. We transfer files, databases, and email accounts with minimal downtime. For popular platforms, we have ready-made instructions to simplify the process. If you have a custom solution, our support team will guide you through the optimal steps.
-
Is there a trial period for VPS?
Yes, we offer a 3-day trial period with an activation fee of 300 rubles. This is an opportunity to test the actual performance of NVMe drives, connection speed, and the convenience of the control panel under real-world conditions. The server will be deployed in less than 10 minutes — you’ll immediately gain SSH access and be able to test your technology stack. If the configuration works for you, the activation fee will be credited toward the main payment. If not — simply delete the virtual machine, and no additional charges will apply. This format helps you evaluate the quality of KVM virtualization and the performance of our support without any long-term commitments. We are confident in our service, which is why we give you time for thorough testing before you buy.
