ihostart was established in 2020, located in Romania, primarily offering Romanian VPS and dedicated servers, with a default bandwidth of 1Gbps.
I discovered this company last year when I wanted to build my own resources. Later, I communicated with their business team, and their server cost-performance ratio is very high (28TB HDD storage is only 36 euros per month). The business staff are also very nice, and if you use it long-term, you can negotiate the price. Later, I got busy with offline business and shelved my self-built project.
The official website recommends using Paypal for payment, while virtual currency requires submitting a ticket to obtain the address for manual payment. It is suggested to buy one month first to test the performance; if the results are good, then submit a ticket to change the payment cycle.
This type of complaint-resistant server is suitable for overseas sites, but not suitable for domestic sites. This company also allows for seedboxes (BT sites), Piex servers, etc., basically a fully open platform.

I was particularly interested in their dedicated servers, with 10 cores, 20 threads, 128G DDR4, and 486TB HDD for around 500 USD per month. Then, I planned to buy a fast server in the West Coast for CDN, which would be very enjoyable for building overseas sites.
