How cost per GB of RAM is calculated

USD/GB RAM/month = the lowest qualifying recurring monthly catalogue price in USD divided by the provider-published RAM in GB. For example, $8/month for 4 GB of RAM is $2.00/GB/month. Non-USD prices are converted using our stored exchange rates. Rankings use unrounded values; the column is rounded to the nearest cent (positive values below one cent appear as <$0.01). An em dash means no comparable value is available, and those plans sort last.

The sample is the matching plans currently tracked by ServerSearcher, not the whole hosting market. Each plan counts once, even if offered in multiple locations. The calculation uses current prices with a one-month minimum term, a listed monthly cost greater than 1 in the original currency, and an available positive exchange rate. Longer-term offers and checkout promo codes are not included in this metric. The monthly price beside it is shown in the provider’s listed currency.

This is a recurring price-to-specification comparison, not an independent performance benchmark. Lower cost per GB of RAM does not establish better CPU, storage, network, uptime or workload performance. VAT, setup fees, promotional terms, regional pricing and availability can affect the final bill; confirm these with the provider. Prices and exchange rates change as the catalogue refreshes; the timestamp above identifies the catalogue refresh, not an immutable study snapshot. See our data and ranking methodology.
