Ask HN: Linode equivalent of Dedicated Server?

I've been using Linode/Digital Ocean for most of my side projects and I'm quite happy with their service. For one CPU intensive project, I need a dedicated server. What do you recommend ? I'm looking for a reliable dedicated server with lots of CPU power and no-downtime issue.

I'm using .co domain for couple of my side projects [0] and they rank well. So, from SEO point of vew, it's as good as .com.

Thanks. I'll fix that.

yeah, I should add that. I thought it was too common for target users. Thanks.

> Is there a good reason to prefer yours ?

Maybe not, yet. But over a period of gradual improvement, it may offer something unique to certain niche. e.g beginner users, who would prefer a tax calculation tool with a clear and easy to understand step by step guide, followed by some tax related advise etc (something similar to what you've recommended). Thanks.

No. Data never leaves the browser (temporarily stored on client's browser using sessionStorage).

yeah, I couldn't find anything else.

Points noted. It's the initial version of what I wanted to build. I'll add more features gradually as I get some input/suggestion from the users. Thank you.

I thought I'm just extracting the final_download_link, so it would be okay. (As, in the end, content is getting served from their CDN)

>> Wonder how long it will stay live though.

Would you elaborate that ?

Thanks.
