Liquid Web pricing and plans

US VPS host where the same server can be self-managed or fully managed

Liquid Web sells VPS servers that can be self-managed or fully managed, on a 10 Gbps network with unmetered inbound traffic. We list each size’s regular “starting at” monthly price from Liquid Web’s own price table, without its two-month 50% promotions; management, Windows or a control panel can add to it. Liquid Web lists nine data centres in the US, the UK, the Netherlands and Australia, but its VPS page does not say which sizes each one sells, so it is not on our country pages.

We earn nothing from Liquid Web.

Plans and derived unit cost

The final two columns are computed from the monthly price, which is how you spot the tier where a provider stops being good value.

Offer on Liquid Web's own page today: 50% off the first 2 months on 10 plans, then the regular price. See the 10 offers and what the first year costs

All figures are the providers' own published list prices in USD, on-demand monthly. The index was last refreshed 2026-10-14, and every row shows the date its own price was read. Nothing here is live or negotiated pricing. Where a provider bills a public IPv4 address on top, it is added to the monthly price, the ranking and every cost per vCPU or per GB, and the row shows the parts: the server, any disk priced apart, and the IPv4 charge. Some prices exclude VAT or need a commitment; the plan notes say which. Check the provider's pricing page before you commit.

Every Liquid Web plan and price

All 21 plans in Liquid Web's own price list, read 2026-10-14. Regular "starting at" prices, with Liquid Web’s two-month 50% offer shown where the page lists it; management, Windows or a control panel can cost more. Transfer is outbound; inbound is unmetered.
