I'm on a low budget.
AutomatedVPS isn't over priced, it's hyper-v quality. However I haven't tried them so i don't know if their hardware/network is good.
Meybe i got a VPS for you, just an old computer you can use it to connect (terminale server) you could use if you want, say your price its always good.

I am actually selling a 2 GB $50 that is powered by hyper-v. "http://www.vpswebserver.com/", i googled "Hyper-V VPS" same price as automated. Now if your looking to go cheap, go linux you can get hell of a burst with a good provider.
boltin i was referring to prices compared to like, frantech or VPSLand, but true, in reality its not overpriced at all.
1. so is that good for a server with 50 people or more?
It can depend on your source too and many other factors. Supposedly with a decent source, yes.
2. If not are there any other cheap hosting companies?
MeoHost.com - Hosting my friends server, no lags at all.
Lowest Plan: Dedicated 512 Mb Ram, 25 Gb Guaranteed Disk Space, 500 Gb Space $14.50 .

I'm aware that our site isn't amazing, I didn't make it and wasn't part in its creation. I do know a new design is in the making, but I was referring to the fact that the system was based on WordPress, that everything on that website is free (the design, the hosting, the owner isn't paying for anything), that he has no support/billing system and all he offers is a Buy Now PayPal buttons...
Morhsn, what really matters is cheap. Like I said, I have a friend who has a VPS there, in fact I do too. I'd be willing to give a free demo on my VPS I have with them. What matters is the VPS itself! I have never had a downtime with them or a resource problem.
I see many successful host with out a panel, it does help.
Wordpress is the best out there for managing website, I actually use it to get my websites added to google in under 24 hours, then delete the installation. Oh yeah, its a module I use to get listed in google its not a feature that comes with wordpress. Your design looks like crap to Morhson, the graphics looks like a 3 year old did it. It is just horrible. Not Web 2.0, not clean.

56 Errors! "Errors found while checking this document as HTML 4.01 Transitional!"
Google: "Best Blog Software" - Wordpress
Morhsn, you'd never purchase from them cause your a hosting company owner? Duh! No I am not trying to make you look bad, but you shouldn't point the flaws of others if you are with a flaw.
I talked to David, the owner, he says that he will be using whmcs soon.
I'd buy from a 5 year old, if the VPS was solid, in uptime, resources, and support. Which MeoHost.com has so far done.
Edit:
Let see MeoHost Markup Validation if they have any errors in their web pages codes:

"This document was successfully checked as XHTML 1.0 Transitional!"
Looks like David's website is cleaner then yours and the images look cleaner, yours looks like you were high and scrambled words on the backgrounds of your images on your site.

Yeah, don't use VPSLand.
I'm with them now(Switching as soon as my PayPal e-check passes), and to say, they are shit.
The support is extremely long(I file an emergency ticket and it's answered 4 hours later, what the hell?), massive overselling,(The VPS would spike to around 80% CPU Load without even the server running.), loads of crashes,(Sometimes it would just block me from accessing it from RDC, for no reason.)
Don't use them, go for a better company.
Use www.worldstream.nl
WorldStream is cheap, but support isn't fast. I am one to say, because took them 3 days to reply to my email. I asked them a few questions and some were answered, some not. (The ones answered, were answered in 1 day, pretty good within 24 hours). The follow up on the ones they skipped took 3 days. I Test again and same thing if you keep contacting them they will ignore you. I wasn't spamming them, just honest questions. Please note that it is a European Company, and has VAT and Windows cost extra. USA dollar compared to EUR will be like toilet paper. You get taxed if you do not pay every 6 months, they add $12 for paying monthly.
I recommend them if your poor, cause they are cheap.
I am just pointing out the facts, as I have tried many companies.
Worldstream does not setup on weekends. As for speed, it is pretty average.
Offshore? Not really a difference, if they get a DMCA you will be terminated. It's just a European Host, latency will be higher which can be bad for players connecting from other places. The ping difference for me is around 100ms, not a big difference. I have a cable modem.
Edit: I also heard VPSLand crashes, wait I experienced that too myself when I was there, good thing I switched.
Boltin,
I don't own a hosting company, I simply work for one.
The minimum respect you can give to a person is to say his name right, even if it's a nickname
You said what really matters is cheap. Well, With the pricing they have on their website it's more than obvious that what they're doing is incredible overselling. It's probably some kid that bought a server and is overselling it to 50 customers.
We on the other hand, promise you that we will never place more than 10 customers on a node.
All I said was that I don't care if WordPress helps or not, it looks bad. Don't you think that a normal company could afford WHMCS before they start selling things? It's so obvious that the customer is just resellering some cheap host and oversells it, tries to make a few bucks on the way.
As I said, we're working on a website for ourselves as well, and I really don't care about what you think about our design or how many errors it has. It was designed to be helpful to customers, so it has WHMCS with SSL, which seems really basic to me!
I'm 95% certain that either you are the owner or you're getting something for posting that reply.
You're willing to give me a demo on your VPS? Really obvious that you're trying your best to make that company come out good.
You have no point in replying to this reply since I'm in no need for childish flame wars.
