Cloud VPS

Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting is a perfect option for web professionals who need flexibility and power for their projects. It divides a physical server into several virtual machines, powering each user with dedicated resources and root access to the server. With virtual private servers, you stay in complete control—freely customise the operating system, control panel, and software to match your needs. While you manage the virtual server, the Bulud team keeps the physical hardware fast, stable, and available. Bulud offers unmanaged VPS services using Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) technology, an open-source module for Linux that helps create many separate, secure virtual servers inside a single physical machine.

Virtual private servers are ideal for building complex projects like resource-intensive websites, modern web apps, multiplayer game servers, or WordPress multisite environments. Unlike shared web hosting, your CPU, RAM, and disk space are guaranteed and isolated from other users. You can install your own operating system and fine-tune the software stack to match your workflow. A Linux VPS grants even more flexibility thanks to the open-source ecosystem—perfect for tech-savvy teams who need performance and control.

A Virtual Private Server (VPS) is a virtual machine that carves out dedicated server resources on a physical node shared with other users. Virtualisation software partitions the hardware into multiple private environments so each tenant gets reserved computing power without interference.

We offer a variety of Linux-based operating systems including CentOS, Ubuntu, AlmaLinux, Debian, and Rocky Linux. Pick the distribution that fits your project best during the VPS setup, and adjust it later as needed.

Key advantages include scalability, reliability, flexibility, and granular resource allocation. VPS hosting lets you scale vertically, ensures high availability through redundancy, and offers flexible billing tied to your actual usage.

Traditional VPS plans live on a single physical server. Cloud VPS distributes your environment across multiple nodes in a wider infrastructure, delivering better redundancy, elastic scaling, and resilience against hardware failures.

Cloud VPS keeps the same core benefits as a traditional VPS—scalability, reliability, flexibility, and dedicated resources—with the added bonus of on-demand scaling and underlying redundancy across the cloud platform.

Dedicated Servers

A dedicated server is a physical machine exclusively leased to a single organisation or individual. No resources are shared, so the entire hardware stack is reserved for your workloads.

Unlike shared hosting or VPS environments, a dedicated server is not partitioned between multiple tenants. You hold complete control over CPU, RAM, storage, and networking—ideal for mission-critical applications or heavy traffic.

Dedicated servers deliver enhanced performance, full control over server settings, improved security, and guaranteed access to the entire hardware footprint. They easily absorb traffic spikes without degrading user experience.

Scaling a fast-growing project requires headroom. Dedicated servers unlock consistent resources, deep customisation, and stronger security—perfect for businesses ready for their next stage.

  • Power your performance with raw processing power so every click and page load stays lightning fast.
  • Take complete control with root access—tune configurations, install software, and design the environment your way.
  • Achieve reliability with stable hardware and predictable performance unaffected by neighbouring tenants.
  • Secure a dedicated IP address to strengthen your online identity and support SSL, email, and compliance needs.
  • Fortify security with isolated infrastructure and tailored protections against emerging threats.
  • Scale on demand—add resources easily as traffic and business requirements evolve.

Payment

You can pay using popular credit and debit cards. Available methods may vary slightly by service, but every transaction flows through trusted gateways for a smooth checkout experience.

Yes. We use secure, reputable platforms with SSL encryption so your financial data stays protected end to end. Always look for "https://" in the address bar and rely on familiar payment gateways for extra peace of mind.

Web Hosting

Web hosting is the service that stores your website files on remote servers and delivers them to visitors across the internet. Providers allocate server space, maintain uptime, and ensure your site stays accessible worldwide.

Dedicated server hosting gives you an entire machine for one client. Because no resources are shared, you receive maximum performance, customisation, and capacity to handle large-scale traffic or specialised workloads.

Start by evaluating the type of site you are running, the traffic you expect, performance goals, budget, and how much technical management you want to handle. Match these needs to the features and resources of each plan.

Absolutely. Bulud hosting plans scale with you. When traffic, storage, or compute needs increase, upgrade seamlessly to unlock additional resources without downtime.

SSL Certificates

An SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate encrypts data exchanged between a visitor's browser and your website. It keeps sensitive information—like logins and payments—private and tamper-proof.

SSL certificates safeguard user data, build trust, and help you meet modern security expectations. Many browsers also flag unsecured sites, so SSL is essential for credibility and conversions.

Look for "https://" at the start of the URL and a padlock icon in the address bar. These indicators confirm that the site is encrypted with a valid SSL certificate.

Modern SSL implementations introduce minimal overhead. The boost to security, search visibility, and user confidence far outweighs the negligible performance cost.

VPS Console

A VPS console is a control interface for managing and monitoring your virtual server. It brings together configuration tools, resource insights, and maintenance utilities in one dashboard.

Simply log in to the Bulud client portal and open the VPS section. From there, access the console through your browser to administer the server remotely.

Use the console to reboot or shut down the VPS, install or update software, manage files, monitor resource usage, and inspect server logs without needing direct SSH access.
