£5er a month? haha right well all good options are out of the window.
digitalocean would be your best best if you know your stuff but by the sounds of “decent support” I guess you don’t.
TSO host are nice and friendly but don’t rely on any emails sent to / from their system as it’s shockingly unreliable. They have more downtime than they’d let on with their cloud service so stick to their cpanel offerings.
If you want an account on a £300 a month server that has a lemp/lamp stack then send me an email. The price is £10 a month but I guarantee you won’t get anywhere near the speed it’s offering for less than £50 a month.
Emails however… I’d tell you to use a 3rd party supplier like zoho or gandhi because I don’t like inboxes clogging up the server. If wordpress is your thing… then you are talking to the right dev.
If you were interested in spec…
AMD 2x Opteron 4386 x16 Core
128GB DDR3 Ram
SSD storage with 6gbps sata3 drives for the bulkier stuff
Nginx and Apache 🙂
