[tor-relays] Cheap exit-friedly VPS provider

[spiros_spiros at freemail.gr]

I have an exit on Wedos since April and so far things have been well. I receive the usual abuse/hacking/nastiness complaint and respond politely within 72 hour. The only issue is on Atlas the exit doesn't yet have exit flag, but I am assuming this is down to bwauth issue etc etc. 

Will happily recommend.

Hi Alexey-san,

I'm running tor exit relay on VPS from amerinoc and they didn't seems
to have problem with that. I mentioned that when I asked them to change
abuse e-mail for ip-address and they were ok with that.

However I would definitly recommend you to take look at this list:

I also heard that https://hosting.wedos.com/en/ are very tor friendly
and they're really cheap (about 100 bucks/year).

Hello everybody,

A couple of months ago I decided to run a Tor exit relay. I
contacted several VPS and dedicated providers and ended up using
PulseServers, because they offered unmetered fast channel for
~$13/month and were Tor-friendly. Only after installing and
configuring the relay I realized their IPs are from OVH AS and
they are OVH resellers. I understand OVH AS'es already dominate
the network and should be avoided if possible, so I have 2
questions:

1. Is there a comparable alternative? 100 Mbit/s unmetered (or
20+ TB of traffic) for less than $20/month. I imagine cheap
OpenVZ virts can't handle even 100 Mbit/s anyway, so I'm not
looking for top performance, but I want something that can do at
least 50 Mbit/s 24/7.

2. If one decided to use OVH AS, are VPS that OVH sells directly
good enough? They have virts as cheap as 2.99/month with at least
10Tb at 100Mbit/s (http://www.ovh.com/us/vps/vps-classic.xml)

I can't say for exits, but I use the OVH Classic VPS ($2.99/mo) to
run one of my relays. It's not an exit node. I let them know about
it and paid a year in advance. No problems whatsoever with them
thus far.
