Re: VPSPriceTracker.com — VPS search engine & price tracker

I checked a few at random and almost all of them showed a slightly lower price [perhaps there are some conflicting parts in the backend].
- I also noticed your platform seems to be showing the yearly and above plans as a monthly plan.

I swear that's a feature not a bug
That happens because all the prices are normalized to monthly billing intervals even for providers that don't offer monthly billing, and when a provider offers yearly billing, the monthly prices are obtained by dividing the yearly price by 12, which generally have some discount, i.e. if a service sells for $3 per month, it may also sell for $30 with yearly billing, giving two months of discount. The reason I normalize prices this way is to permit the comparison of the services without too much effort on my side ... I should probably add a toggle in the search form to switch between the payment cycles, but that would also come with its own problems too, because with this toggle, if a user chooses to only search for services that offer monthly billing, all quarterly and yearly services would become invisible. It's a little mess
That's great, but the way you've labeled it is a bit strange [Monero (XMR) payment, as opposed to cryptocurrency payments]. BTW, you might want to add another search parameter based on the type/types of crypto processors/gateways that each one of them uses on their platforms [some of them come with geo-blocking, so it'd come in handy for some users].
Yep I get it! I initially made the search engine without too much focus on crypto, and only included Monero among the search parameters because I've seen that this currency is often requested for VPSs, while Bitcoin per se not so much. But I'm constantly working on it and I'll keep your feedback in mind! I think I'll probably add Bitcoin too after I'm done implementing a pile of stuff that I've been working on since mid August.
