So, you want to make some cash and you think you might do this by getting your own Virtual Private Server (VPS). Who knows you might be able to make some cash and get your hosting paid for at the same time if you believe what a lot of people are saying!
First things first you’re going to need a VPS (aka Virtual Private Server) and you can get a VPS from a LOT of different providers that are out there. Compare a few and pick one you think is better than the rest and get started.
Well like most ways to make money it’s a tad harder than just buying your very own VPS and telling all your buddies you’ll host their websites for a lot less than what they’re paying now!
See when you start checking out Virtual Private Servers it’s important to know a few things, like what kind of uptime is your virtual machine guaranteed, because what a VPS is and when it comes to fixing a virtual machine you will be at the tender mercies of the company you have signed up with to provide service on your virtual machine.

If they insist do it for FREE and when they need service tell them you don’t do that for FREE accounts and then refer them to a real ISP and save your friendship!
If it were me there is ONE THING, I’d use VPS downtime for it is mining cryptocurrencies. You can go ahead and get your personal hosting via a VPS and then when there is room figure out how to set it to mining whatever type of cryptocurrency you want. There are ALL KINDS of mining companies that would love to have you mining their crypto and will provide you with pretty much everything you need to make some extra cash with your VPS.
So, as I’ve said before “you pay your money and you take your chances” so if you’re going to try to make some extra cash with a VPS make it with the
