*📜 Plan description

VPS STANDARD is the balanced mid range offer in the SERVER4YOU lineup and targets users who outgrow the smallest instance but still want a cost efficient virtual server. This plan doubles the CPU and memory of BASIC to 2 vCores and 8 GB DDR4 ECC RAM and increases storage to 500 GB HDD, providing enough capacity for multiple websites, a handful of application containers or more demanding databases. Like all plans in this family it comes with a 100 Mbit/s connection and one IPv4 address plus zero setup fee, and pricing starts from 4.99 USD per month, making it attractive for agencies, developers or small businesses that need more headroom without moving to a dedicated machine. STANDARD is well suited for running several production sites, modest shop systems or groupware solutions, especially when combined with caching and proper resource tuning.

The SERVER4YOU VPS series focuses on affordable virtual root servers with predictable resources, available in data centres located in the USA and France. All tariffs in this line share key characteristics such as DDR4 ECC memory for better data integrity, unthrottled 100 Mbit/s connectivity and one public IP address per server, while the number of vCores, RAM and disk size scales with the chosen plan. Customers can usually choose between common Linux distributions and Windows Server templates and manage their systems entirely on their own, making these VPS offers a low cost alternative to classic dedicated servers. Ordering is done online, setup fees are waived for the current generation of plans and new servers are provisioned automatically within a short time window. Typical use cases range from web and application hosting over mail, backup, voice or game servers up to small business workloads that need an isolated environment with guaranteed resources.

📄 Editorial Review

SERVER 4 YOU is a classic budget server host centered almost entirely around virtual servers (VPS) and dedicated servers, not beginner shared hosting. The brand dates back to the late 1990s and today operates as a mass-market server provider with data centers in Europe (Strasbourg, France) and the USA (St. Louis, Missouri). The whole setup is built for people who want a lot of raw resources for relatively little money and are comfortable administering their own systems.

The entry layer consists of virtual servers in two main lines: Virtual Server SSD and Virtual Server HDD. Both use KVM virtualization and scale up to around 6 vCores, 32 GB RAM, and either sizable SSD space (up to roughly 500 GB) or larger HDD volumes (up to around 2 TB). Connectivity for VPS sits at 100 Mbit/s with unlimited traffic, so there is no separate bandwidth meter to watch—just the usual fair-use expectations. These VPS are oriented to Linux users; if someone wants Windows Server, they are expected to choose dedicated hardware instead.

Above that sits a Virtual Dedicated Server (VDS) range, aimed at users who want fully dedicated CPU and disk resources while staying in a virtualized environment. Typical configurations bundle dedicated CPU cores, 8–16 GB RAM and large HDD storage with the same unlimited-traffic policy. This works well for workloads that benefit from predictable performance—small game servers, busier forums, internal tools—but don’t yet justify a full physical box.

The core of the catalog is the dedicated server lineup. Customers can choose from older but proven Intel Skylake and Xeon E3/E5 systems, more recent Intel Core models, and high-end AMD Ryzen 9 platforms. RAM ranges roughly from 32 GB up to 256 GB, storage combines SATA HDD, SSD and NVMe, and network ports go up to 1 Gbit/s. Every dedicated server includes at least one IPv4 address (with options for more), unlimited data transfer, and a small Acronis backup quota so there is at least a basic off-server backup in place from day one.

Software freedom is another key point. Servers can be installed with AlmaLinux, Debian, Ubuntu, Rocky Linux, Proxmox or Windows Server on dedicated machines, all managed directly through the PowerPanel interface. Plesk is tightly integrated and available with a small free license for a limited number of domains on dedicated servers, while cPanel/WHM can be added as a paid option for those who prefer that ecosystem. There are also templates for Pterodactyl so a server can be turned into a ready-to-use game-hosting panel with minimal manual setup.

Overall, SERVER4YOU is a "power user" host: quick deployment (usually within hours on in-stock models), broad hardware choices, and a modern OS stack, but with the clear expectation that customers are comfortable with Linux or Windows Server administration and do not need managed hand-holding. Someone who just wants a simple shared WordPress plan is not the target here; someone who wants cheap, bare-metal or VPS capacity in Europe or the US very much is.
