How to order VPS Linux/Windows in Client Area

Overview

Virtual Private Server or VPS is a type of hosting service that allows individuals and businesses to host their websites and applications on a virtual machine that runs its own operating system and has dedicated resources such as CPU, RAM, and storage. It is called a “virtual” private server because it is created by partitioning a physical server into multiple virtual servers, each with its own operating system and resources.

In this article, you will learn how to order VPS from the client area.

How to order VPS Linux

1. Log in to your Client Area account.
2. From the main menu go to Cloud Services > Order new service.
3. From the side-menu Services select VPS Linux.
4. Select the suitable VPS plan and click Order Now.
5. Choose Billing Cycle and configure your desired options:
   • VM Image: Choose your operating system distribution.
   • Control Panel (Optional): Select your desired control panel add-on. You can keep it “None” if you don’t need any.
     
     Note

     Not having a control panel in VPS hosting can result in difficulties managing your server and increase human interaction using command-line due to the lack of user-friendly tools, such as DNS manager, emails, etc. It's recommended to use a control panel to simplify server administration tasks and ensure well performance and automated software updates of your VPS.

   • Hostname: Represents the name associated with the server's IP address. For example (name.server.ly) 
   • Root Password: Server root password
   • NS1 Prefix and NS2 Prefix: Represents the first part of your custom nameservers, where you can simply fill in these two fields with “ns1” and “ns2”.
   • Additional Information: If you want to log in to the VM without using a password, you can enter your public key in the OpenSSH format (e.g. ssh-rsa) in the SSH Public Key field.
   • Additional Services: Select your preferred plan from CloudLinux, Imunify360, or Softaculous.
