After 3.5 years of running ZenSix, I've found my sweet spot when it comes to how many clients I can handle before I have to hire new support agents and buy more servers. I don't like hiring new support agents or buying new servers. It's a pain in the ass.
So... I'm going back to a system that ZenSix has used in the past: The Waiting List. I currently have one empty server (and a few spots on other servers) and when that's full, I'll close the doors to the public (for VPS ordering). Anyone who wants to sign-up for a ZenSix VPS after that point will have to put their name on the waiting list and wait until a current ZenSix client cancels or gets terminated. But before that happens, I'm giving WF members a chance to get a 512MB VPS at a VERY reduced rate. There are about 20 spots and they might sell out in a day or it might take two weeks. I have no idea. I'm not advertising this anywhere else.
The Deal
For the first year of service, you can get a VM-512 plan (see zensix.com for more information) for just $99. The plan is normally $14/month or $168/year. That means you'll be getting it for just $8.25/month if you average out the price. So, you'll get:
During checkout enter the promo code: 512promo
Questions:
Are these managed or unmanaged?
These are UNmanaged VPS plans. That means you are responsible for everything. We make sure the hardware and node keep running, you take care of everything else.
Do you offer cPanel or DirectAdmin?
No, if you want either of those you'll have to purchase your own license elsewhere and install it yourself. We do offer a free admin panel called BoxCtrl and will install that for you if you wish (you must use CentOS 32-bit).
Do you offer Windows?
No. Linux only, and by default you are setup with CentOS. There are other Linux distros you can install yourself from within the VPS control panel.
Can I run a scraper, proxy, IRC, torrent, send bulk email, etc...?
No.
Where are your servers located?
You'll either end up on a server located in Kansas City, Missouri or Albany, New York.
Can I upgrade later?
No. Due to the nature of this promotion (and the fact that I'm not going to oversell a server), you will not be able to upgrade the RAM or Bandwidth until your first year of service is up and the promotion has ended.
Why are you going to make ZenSix private? Shouldn't a business want to grow and expand?
I hit my goal of living comfortably and working from home a long time ago. If I let ZenSix continue to grow I would be trading money for time and stress. I have no desire to own a giant hosting company with hundreds of employees. Like I said, this is my sweet spot and I want to stay here.
How Do I Order?
You MUST order the yearly package or the promotion won't work.
