VPS hosting for scrapers and headless browsers

Run scrapers and headless browsers on a VPS with unmetered transfer and full root access, and pair it with proxies from the same account when a site needs them.

From $5.99/month · USD · availability varies by region

Dedicated IPv4DDoS protectionFree backupsFull root access

Overview

A steady place to run collection jobs.

Scheduled jobs need a machine that is always on, with transfer you do not have to count.

No per-GB transfer bill

Collection jobs move a lot of data. Transfer on the server is unmetered at the plan’s port speed, within the acceptable use policy.

Headless browsers welcome

Full root access lets you install Playwright, Chromium and their dependencies. Browsers need memory, so size the plan for them.

Proxies on the same account

Residential, mobile and datacenter proxies are billed per GB from one balance, for sites that treat hosting addresses differently.

Pricing

Start small. Leave room to grow.

Monthly pricing in USD. Unmetered transfer at the plan’s port speed. Save 20% with annual billing at checkout.

Workflow

From an idea
to your next deploy.

Pick the plan for the workload. Check the region before you order.

01

Size for the browser

Plain HTTP scrapers are light. Headless browsers need more memory per tab.

02

Deploy and schedule

Install your tools, then run jobs on a timer so they survive reboots.

03

Add proxies if needed

Start without them. Add a proxy tier when a site blocks the server’s own address.

Answers

A few things worth knowing.

Which plan do I need for scraping?+

It depends on the tool. Scripts that fetch pages over HTTP are light. Headless browsers use far more memory, so pick a plan with room for the number of tabs you run.

Is transfer metered?+

Not on the server: there is no per-GB charge, only the plan’s port speed and the acceptable use policy. Proxy traffic is billed per GB separately.

Do I need proxies as well?+

Not always. Some sites restrict addresses that belong to hosting providers. If yours does, route those requests through a proxy tier.

Can I run Playwright or Puppeteer?+

Yes. Our guide covers a headless browser on a VPS, including the system packages it needs.

What am I allowed to collect?+

Follow our acceptable use policy and the terms of the sites you visit. Collect public data, respect rate limits and do not collect personal data you have no right to.

Will every website accept requests from the server?+

No. No server or proxy guarantees access to a particular website.
