Sites with visitors in China
Hong Kong and Japan servers offer CN2 routes aimed at mainland China, and the Hong Kong plans cost the same as US-West.
WordPress and small web apps
NVMe storage and full root access let you tune the web server, caching and SSL yourself, from $7.99 a month.
Developers who need a server now
A new VPS is ready in 1 to 5 minutes, with a browser console, one-click reinstall and more than 20 Linux images.
Budgets that cannot surprise you
US-West and Hong Kong plans have a fixed monthly traffic quota, and going over slows the connection instead of adding per-GB charges.
How much does BrainHost cost?
BrainHost has no free plan: its KVM VPS plans cost $7.99 to $24.99 a month in US-West, and paying for a year costs the price of 10 months.

What happens when my BrainHost traffic runs out?
