Why BuyVM

Things that should cost extra. They don’t.

DDoS filter, free.

Layer-3 / Layer-4 mitigation on every IP. Same gear we use to keep our own panel up — pointed at your slice, no extra charge, ever.

1 Gbps unmetered.

1 Gbps in, 1 Gbps out, per IP. No bandwidth meter ticking down. We measured the link, not your packets.

Real KVM, real root.

Your kernel, your iptables, your bad ideas. Real virtualization — not a container with a marketing layer on top.

Boots in 54 seconds.

Median across all regions, last 30 days. We benchmark our own platform every hour and post the results.

Anycast from $3/mo.

Drop a /24 onto our edge across 4 cities. Used to require a peering meeting and a suit. Not anymore.

14 years, same team.

Founded 2010. Never sold. Never rebranded. Same people answering tickets that wrote the panel.

Network

Four cities. One backbone.

Carrier-neutral facilities, direct peering with the eyeball networks your users actually live behind.

"Six years on the same $7 slice. Price hasn’t moved. Uptime hasn’t moved. I forget it’s there. Highest compliment I can pay infrastructure."
