Hi, Guys. I have a VPS and I don't use it much.

So, can anyone tell me what Can I do with my VPS. (Already searched Google, tell me something new instead of hosting websites, servers etc).

So, can anyone tell me some good methods from which I can make some money.

P.S: If any of you want, I can lend my VPS for a decent price aswell.

VPS Specifications:

6 core

12GB ram (Can be extended to 16GB)

80GB HDD (Can be extended to 150GB)

1Gb/s connection

 

Regards

Well....

I know this is surprising, but most people purchase a VPS with a purpose already in mind.

Let it expire, save the money you get from owning the VPS and put it to other use, such as food or whatnot.

There's no easy "set a VPS up and make money" thing except for some shady stuff.

Do you have contract obligations? If not expire it. If you do, you might do some things like:

- Bitcoin mining;

- Shared hosting;

- Game server;

- Sending (legal) e-mails for 3rd parties;

- Owncloud (Similar Dropbox);

- VPN/Proxy;

- Satbox;

- Voip server;

Etc etc :).

That response was tongue-in-cheek.

Don't run a TOR exit node unless you know what your doing and the implications of it.

I did some searching for TOR exit nodes, found one that actually logs it's traffic publically.

Back to the topic, you could run a server on it? Teamspeak or some other voice server might serve a good purpose.

Ohk, Thank you everyone for your valuable comments.

I don't know, how to setup all this.

Can anyone link me to a suitable turorial, that explains how to setup a server on VPS. :)

The #1 way you will make money on this, is to cancel it and just pocket what you were spending if you don't need the high end VPS.  It's a guarantee, no fuss, in your pocket cash.

All the things like bitcoin mining, or data processing etc, wont ever outpace what you pay a cloud provider for a vps to break even or make a profit.

Oh my god, I joined this Forum because I thought I will learn new things, but you guys are raging me.

And I did Google search but I'm getting same things like Host website, Servers etc. nothing new.

Anyways, Thanks.

Seriously, you are welcome to be around here and all...  Glad to have you on board.

Just expecting a bit from folks to tell you what to do and all.

Making money is something few do with VPS unless they've developed something substantial as a niche or product offering.   Develop something or get some clarity on what you intend to do so someone can point you to a How-to.

Was you given it or won it or something?
