You stack 1 to 32 slices, billed monthly, with root access, Linux or Windows, and optional Webuzo, DirectAdmin, cPanel or Plesk. Managed support kicks in at 8 slices, or $24 a month, and DDoS protection is free.

InterServer dedicated servers

Build-to-order dedicated servers start at $149 a month for a 12-core AMD Ryzen 9900X with 64 GB of RAM and go up to $720. All list 1 Gbps unmetered bandwidth, IPMI console access and DDoS protection, with 10 to 100 Gbps links, bring-your-own IP and BGP on request.

InterServer shared hosting prices

Shared hosting costs $2.50 for the first month, then $7, and every term shows its renewal: $15 for six months then $42, $30 for a year then $84, $60 for two years then $168. It includes DirectAdmin, weekly backups, CloudLinux and Cloudflare CDN.

InterServer refunds and uptime guarantee
