GoDaddy offers both Linux and Windows server based VPS hosting packages. There are 4 different plans – Economy, Value, Deluxe and Ultimate. All of these plans come with unlimited bandwidth, 3 dedicated IPs and an SSL Certificate free of charge for first year of hosting term. Economy VPS plan provides 1GB memory and 40GB storage. This increases to 2GB memory and 60GB storage in Value VPS plan. The Deluxe VPS plan ups it further to 4GB memory and 120GB storage, while the highest Ultimate VPS plan caps it to 8GB memory and 240GB of storage space. Godaddy claims that it takes just a few minutes to provision a VPS and will take care of backups, patching and monitoring the security status of the server. Other administration tasks are either handled by the customer or Godaddy team, based on the level of management chosen (Self-Managed, Managed or Fully Managed). For fully-managed VPS plans, you need to pay an additional fee.
