Galloway, NJ, 6th May 2013 — Linode, one of the 18+ cloud providers available through Cloudways, had announced last month to double the disk storage and memory (as part of its Linode NextGen program) on its current hosting plans, while keeping the same price structure. With this modification, Linode now offers up to 576 GB in digital storage to existing and new customers.
It is the second time in 6 months that the New Jersey based VPS and cloud hosting provider has tweaked its service plans. Earlier in December this past year, it increased data storage limits alone.
Following suit, Cloudways clients can now opt for any of the Linode hosting bundles for half the price. One of the biggest advantage Linode has over its competitors is its low priced bandwidth rates — with free bandwidth up to 1TB we’ll consider that as non-existent.
Here’s what the revised Linode Hosting plans look like at Cloudways:
