Behind the Scenes: How We Deploy Your VPS in Under 2 Minutes

hosteons June 12, 2025 Leave a Comment

At Hosteons, speed and reliability are core to our hosting philosophy. One of the most common reactions from new customers is:

“I just placed the order… and my VPS is already online?”

Yes, most VPS orders are deployed within 2 minutes—ready to use with SSH or console access. So how do we do it?

Let’s take you behind the curtain.

⚙️ 1. Optimized Infrastructure with RAW Disk Format

All our KVM VPS nodes are preconfigured for high-speed provisioning using RAW disk format—not LVM or ZFS. This ensures:

Faster disk I/O during deployment
Minimal overhead from volume management
Compatibility across all major Linux distributions

This streamlined storage setup is a major contributor to ultra-fast provisioning.

⚡ 2. Instant Provisioning with Virtualizor

We use Virtualizor as our VPS control panel, tightly integrated with our billing platform. Here’s what happens the moment your payment clears:

VPS is deployed from a cached OS template
IPs (IPv4 and /64 IPv6) are instantly assigned
Hostname, root password, and optional SSH key are set
VPS is booted and available for SSH or web console access

All this happens automatically—no human intervention required in most cases.

🔁 3. Real-Time Billing & Order Processing

Through our client portal, powered by WHMCS:

You select your plan
Submit payment
VPS is provisioned automatically within ~2 minutes

We support a wide range of global payment options, so no matter where you are, you can deploy instantly.

⚠️ Important Exceptions

While most orders are provisioned instantly, there are a few scenarios where manual review may be required:

🪟 1. Windows VPS Orders

These are usually provisioned instantly too, unless the password you provide contains special characters not accepted by Windows setup.

✅ To ensure fast deployment, use a password with:

Uppercase & lowercase letters
Numbers
No special symbols like @, #, !, etc.You can change the password after initial setup via the control panel.

🕵️‍♂️ 2. Payment Fraud Screening

Orders paid via PayPal or Credit/Debit Cards are automatically screened for fraud.
If the fraud score is high, we manually review before provisioning.
Orders via crypto, Alipay, QRIS, Dragonpay, etc. are usually processed instantly without delay.

🌍 Global Locations

We offer VPS from 8 world-class data centers:

🇺🇸 USA: Los Angeles, New York, Dallas, Portland, Miami, Salt Lake City

🇩🇪 Germany: Frankfurt

🇫🇷 France: Paris

All plans come with native IPv6 /64 routed subnets, included free of charge.

🧰 Pre-Secured Setup

Use our initial VPS setup script to:

Harden SSH
Add sudo user
Setup UFW/CSF firewall
Install Fail2Ban
Enable automatic security updates

You can be fully secured within 5 minutes of deployment.

✅ Conclusion

At Hosteons, we’ve built an automated, optimized, and global VPS platform that gets you online in under 2 minutes. While edge cases may need manual review, 95%+ of VPS orders are deployed instantly—so you can focus on what matters.

🔐 Automatically Install Fail2Ban with Smart Jail Detection on Your VPS (Script by Hosteons)

hosteons June 3, 2025 Leave a Comment

Here’s a complete WordPress blog post draft to promote your Fail2Ban Auto-Installer script from GitHub:

🔐 Automatically Install Fail2Ban with Smart Jail Detection on Your VPS (Script by Hosteons)

At Hosteons, we’re committed to making server security easier for everyone. Whether you’re running a small VPS or managing a fleet of Linux servers, protecting against brute-force attacks is critical.

That’s why we’ve created a Fail2Ban Auto-Installer Script that not only installs Fail2Ban but also auto-detects and enables jails for common services like SSH, Apache, and Nginx — all in one click.

👉 GitHub Repository:

https://github.com/hosteons/Fail2Ban-Auto-Installer-With-Jail

✅ Key Features

Installs Fail2Ban on Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, and CentOS
Detects installed services (e.g., sshd, nginx, apache) and enables jails accordingly
Skips jails for services not found on the system
Handles log file paths intelligently based on distro
Verifies and restarts Fail2Ban only if configuration is valid
Smart checks if Fail2Ban is already installed
Minimal and safe — logs errors clearly

🧠 How It Works

When you run the script:

It detects your Linux OS flavor.
Installs Fail2Ban (if not already installed).
Checks if apache, nginx, or sshd is active.
Adds only the appropriate jails with correct log paths.
Restarts Fail2Ban and confirms its status.
Provides clear output so you know it’s working.

This ensures Fail2Ban doesn’t fail due to missing log files or services — a common issue in manual configurations.

📥 How to Use

Download the script:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hosteons/Fail2Ban-Auto-Installer-With-Jail/main/fail2ban_auto_installer.sh
chmod +x fail2ban_auto_installer.sh
./fail2ban_auto_installer.sh

That’s it. The script handles the rest!

At Hosteons, we’re constantly working to improve your hosting experience. We’re excited to announce that all new VPS orders now include a /64 IPv6 subnet by default — no justification required.

🚀 What’s New?

✅ Key Benefits

No need to request or justify a /64 subnet
Automatically provisioned during VPS setup
Ideal for containers, custom routing, and IPv6-based apps

💡 Self-Hosting vs SaaS: Why Developers Are Moving Back to VPS

hosteons May 15, 2025 May 15, 2025 Leave a Comment

In recent years, Software as a Service (SaaS) has dominated how we consume tools — from CRMs to project managers and even basic email. But in a surprising twist, developers are increasingly ditching SaaS in favor of good old-fashioned self-hosted applications on VPS (Virtual Private Servers).

At HostEONS, we’re seeing a growing wave of developers deploying self-hosted solutions like Nextcloud, Ghost, Outline, Forgejo, Matomo, and more. Here’s why.

🏗️ The SaaS Problem: Convenience with a Cost

SaaS makes it easy to get started — no server configs, no deployment — just log in and go. But that simplicity comes with hidden tradeoffs:

💰 High monthly fees
🔒 Limited control over data
📦 Feature gating and vendor lock-in
📉 Performance throttling on lower-tier plans
🔕 No control over updates or platform decisions

SaaS is convenient, but you’re renting access, not owning your workflow.

🔁 The Shift: Developers Reclaim Control with Self-Hosting

Today’s developers are tech-savvy and privacy-conscious. Many are turning to VPS-powered self-hosting to take back control — and not just for cost savings.

Here’s why self-hosting is making a comeback:

✅ 1. Full Data Ownership

Self-hosting means your data stays on your terms — not in some multi-tenant cloud environment. Great for:

GDPR-conscious projects
Security-focused devs
Auditable and transparent operations

✅ 2. One-Time Costs, Not Monthly Drain

Most SaaS tools start cheap but scale poorly. Self-hosting on a VPS is:

Cost-effective
Predictable
Scalable without high license jumps

You pay for what you use — not for every user or feature toggle.

✅ 3. Customizability

Open-source, self-hosted tools are often highly customizable. Developers can:

Change UI
Extend functionality
Connect to internal systems without API limits

Try doing that on a closed SaaS dashboard.

✅ 4. Learning and Empowerment

Self-hosting helps devs:

Improve their sysadmin skills
Master Docker, NGINX, systemd, backups
Build portable infrastructure knowledge

Perfect for freelancers, devops engineers, and indie hackers.

✅ 5. Tool Independence

SaaS services can get acquired, shut down, or pivot. With self-hosting:

You’re in control of updates and versioning
You’re not forced into UI overhauls or “enterprise upgrades”
You can run the exact version you want — forever

🧰 What Developers Are Hosting on VPS

Some popular self-hosted apps we’ve seen deployed on HostEONS VPS plans include:

🚀 Nextcloud (cloud storage & collaboration)
📝 Ghost (blog/CMS)
🧠 Outline or Logseq (internal wikis)
📈 Matomo (privacy-first analytics)
📦 Forgejo / Gitea (self-hosted Git platforms)
💬 Rocket.Chat / Mattermost (chat servers)
📂 FileRun or Seafile (file sharing)
🌍 OpenVPN / WireGuard (self-hosted VPNs)

Need inspiration? We even wrote a guide on How to Install WordPress on a VPS

🖥️ Why HostEONS for Self-Hosting?

We make it easy for developers to self-host without hassle:

✅ KVM VPS with full root access

✅ Free snapshots & backups

✅ Free Blesta license

✅ 1 Gbps (or 10 Gbps for VDS) port speeds

✅ Locations across the US & EU

✅ Flexible payment options — including crypto, Alipay CN, and local gateways

✅ Affordable yearly plans (starting from $17.99/year)

👉 Explore our VPS plans

🧭 Conclusion

SaaS still has its place, but developers are increasingly realizing the power, control, and freedom that comes with self-hosting on a VPS. It’s not just a technical decision — it’s a philosophy of ownership over access.

At HostEONS, we’re proud to power that movement.

🚫 Why Hosteons Doesn’t Oversell Resources — And Why That Matters

hosteons May 7, 2025 Leave a Comment

In the hosting world, the term overselling is everywhere. Many VPS and shared hosting providers stack more clients on a server than it can truly handle, betting that most users won’t utilize 100% of their allocated resources at the same time.

At HostEONS, we take a different approach — we never oversell critical resources like CPU and RAM. Here’s why that matters for your VPS performance, stability, and peace of mind.

❓ What Is Overselling?

Overselling happens when a hosting provider allocates more virtual resources (CPU, RAM, etc.) than physically exist on a server, assuming not everyone will use them fully at once.

Example:

A server with 64 GB RAM sells 100 GB worth of VPS plans.
If every VPS tries to use its full RAM, the server becomes overloaded, leading to crashes, slowdowns, and frustrated users.

🚀 Why HostEONS Doesn’t Oversell

We believe in transparent, reliable hosting. Here’s what we do instead:

✅ Strict Resource Allocation: Each VPS is assigned real, guaranteed CPU(VDS), RAM, and disk space — no tricks.
✅ Consistent Performance: Whether it’s peak hours or low traffic, your VPS performs as expected.
✅ Better Stability: No noisy neighbors saturating shared resources and causing downtime.
✅ Long-Term Trust: We build customer loyalty through reliability, not short-term gains.

🛡️ Why This Matters to You

For Developers: Predictable environments = smooth deployments.
For Businesses: Reliable websites and apps = better user trust & revenue.
For Agencies & Resellers: Confidently host your clients knowing your backend is solid.

When hosting providers oversell, you pay the price in lost performance and downtime. We think that’s unacceptable.

💡 HostEONS Hosting Highlights

Intel Xeon & Ryzen KVM VPS
Free Snapshots & Backups
Free Blesta License
Multiple Locations: US & EU
Fast NVMe Storage (Ryzen Plans)
One-Click Control Panel & Instant Setup

✅ A Track Record You Can Trust

How to Get a /24 (256 IPs) With Your VPS at Hosteons

hosteons April 15, 2025 April 15, 2025 Leave a Comment

At Hosteons, we understand that some projects or business use cases require a large block of IP addresses — such as a /24 (256 IPs). While this is a fairly advanced setup, we do support it under specific conditions.

That said, to ensure our network stays clean and isn’t exploited for abusive activities like spamming or bulk mailing, we’ve implemented strict policies and checks around such requests.

🚫 Why We Restrict Bulk IP Allocations by Default

As per our Acceptable Usage Policy (AUP), we do not allow bulk mailing, newsletter distribution, or spam-related activities. These policies are in place to protect:

✅ The reputation of our IP space

✅ Our network infrastructure

✅ The deliverability and quality of service for all customers

However, we also recognize that there are legitimate mailers and infrastructure users who need large IP allocations — and we’re here to support you, as long as you meet our criteria.

✉️ SMTP Port is Blocked by Default — But Can Be Opened

Due to the high potential for abuse, SMTP (Port 25) is blocked by default on all our VPS plans.

But if you’re a verified, legitimate user, we will gladly open SMTP upon request — just raise a support ticket. This helps us protect our IPs from blacklisting and ensures better overall email deliverability.

📦 Terms & Conditions for Allocating a /24 IP Block

We take abuse prevention seriously. If you’re interested in getting a /24 block (256 IPs), you’ll need to meet the following requirements:

💵 Pricing

$2 per IP per month
Must be paid annually in advance

💳 Accepted Payment Methods

To avoid abuse and payment disputes (often initiated by bad actors after service suspension), we only accept the following for /24 IP orders:

✅ Credit Card (with 3D Secure authentication)
✅ Cryptocurrency
✅ AliPay
✅ Other secure payment methods❌ We do NOT accept PayPal or FastSpring for /24 IP allocations.

🔒 Responsibility & Abuse Policy

If we receive spam complaints or detect RBL (blacklist) listings, your SMTP access will be blocked immediately.
In case of multiple violations or serious abuse, your VPS may be suspended or terminated without any refund.

These terms are strict — and deliberately so — to protect our customers, our IP space, and our business from spam-related abuse.

💬 Interested? Let’s Talk

If you’re a serious customer with a legitimate need for 256 IPs, we’re happy to assist.

👉 Simply submit a ticket and our team will guide you through the approval process, pricing, and next steps.

🙏 Final Thoughts

We know the conditions might seem a bit tough, but they’re essential for maintaining a clean, reliable, and secure hosting environment.

We’re proud to support responsible and legitimate users, and we’ll go the extra mile to make sure you have the resources you need — without compromising on security or ethics.

🛡️ Let’s keep the internet clean, fast, and fair — together.

Why 24×7 Support Matters — And How Hosteons Delivers It, Every Day of the Year

hosteons April 12, 2025 April 12, 2025 Leave a Comment

Whether you’re managing a mission-critical website, deploying a new app, or just running your personal VPS — one thing’s certain: issues don’t follow a 9 to 5 schedule.

That’s why at Hosteons, we provide true 24×7 support, all year round — including weekends and holidays. No “we’ll get back to you Monday.” No long delays. Just real help, when you need it most.

🧑‍💻 What Does 24×7 Really Mean?

Plenty of hosting providers advertise 24×7 support — but what they often mean is:

A chatbot after hours
Delayed responses overnight
Email-only support with 24–48 hour SLAs
Tier 1 agents without real resolution access

At Hosteons, we take it seriously. When we say 24×7, we mean it:

📩 Submit a support ticket any time, any day
🔧 Get real, human responses — not bots
🕒 Fast replies — even on weekends and holidays
💡 Help with everything from reboots to complex technical issues

🌍 Global Infrastructure Means Global Support

Our customers span multiple time zones, from North America to Asia — and your business doesn’t stop when ours sleeps.

That’s why we’ve built a globally distributed support team to make sure someone is always there:

VPS issues? We’re on it.
Need RDNS changes at midnight? Handled.
Web hosting not resolving? Already being checked.

No matter when you need help, we’re ready.

🚀 Why This Matters to You

Whether you’re a solo developer or running a growing business, downtime or unresolved issues can cost:

💸 Lost revenue
🧠 Wasted time
😤 Frustrated customers

✅ For developers:

Get technical answers fast, even during late-night deployments.

✅ For businesses:

Stay confident that your infrastructure is backed by real people.

Deliver better service to your clients, knowing we’ve got your back.

Uptime Transparency Done Right — How Hosteons Shares Real-Time Server & Network Status

hosteons April 11, 2025 Leave a Comment

In the world of web hosting and VPS services, uptime is everything — but transparency about that uptime is often lacking.

Many providers make vague claims like “99.9% uptime” or display the health of a single test server — but they don’t show you what’s really going on across their entire infrastructure.

At Hosteons, we believe in doing things differently. That’s why we offer real-time, public monitoring of every server in our network — not just one or two per location.

✅ Why Uptime Transparency Matters

When you’re running a business, deploying client projects, or even just managing personal applications, downtime = risk. But without clear visibility into a provider’s network, you’re left guessing:

Is the issue local or global?
Is it just me or is the entire node down?
How quickly does the provider respond to incidents?

Most hosting companies only show selective stats or display one server per location — which can easily mask problems or give a false sense of reliability.

🌐 Introducing Hosteons’ Public Uptime Status Page

We’ve made things simple and honest.

👉 Visit: https://status.hosteons.com

Hosted and monitored independently by HetrixTools

This page shows:

💻 Every VPS node (not just one per location)
🌐 Web hosting servers
🧰 Backup servers
📡 DNS resolvers
🔌 Network-level uptime

This isn’t just a “pretty dashboard.” It’s raw, verifiable data, and it’s always public.

🔍 What’s Different About Our Approach?

Feature	Hosteons	Typical Providers
Public uptime monitoring	✅ Yes	❌ Rarely
Monitored by 3rd party	✅ HetrixTools	⚠️ Often self-hosted
Per-server visibility	✅ Every VPS node shown	❌ One server per location
Includes backup/DNS systems	✅ Yes	❌ Not shown
Open to everyone	✅ No login needed	❌ Hidden or internal only

We don’t just say “we’re transparent” — we prove it, 24/7.

🛡️ Why This Benefits You

You can check uptime history before ordering a plan
Monitor your node’s performance independently
Hold us accountable (we welcome it)
Feel confident knowing we’re not hiding outages or degrading service

📉 What Happens During Downtime?

If a server or service experiences downtime:

It’s reflected immediately on our public page
Our team receives alerts via HetrixTools and responds proactively
You can monitor status in real-time — no need to wait for vague updates

🔄 Building Trust Through Visibility

We don’t just want to sell you hosting. We want to earn your trust — and that starts with honesty and accountability.

By using a third-party service (HetrixTools) and displaying per-node stats, we put transparency first — not marketing spin.
