Thanks @Brandon<\/a> offer me the Virtual Server free for a month.<\/p>\n

The detail of the Server from the ordering page:<\/p>\n

  2. \u2022 10GB Storage<\/li>\n

    The normal price is a little expensive. So I run a small testing after I received the email about the server.<\/p>\n

    Now it is $5.00 \/mo<\/a> with promotional code “LET” [Update : 2012\/07\/20] <\/span><\/strong>

      This server has 4 E5-2620 CPUs. It is really powerful.<\/strong><\/p>\n
    5. Operating System<\/li>\n

      So far everything goes perfect. And I am planning to build a WordPress on it.<\/strong><\/p>\n
      But I will reinstall the Debian System for personal way.<\/p>\n
      The SolusVM is very convenient to reinstall the OS with some clicks.<\/p>\n
      But the root password need to reset after the server online. Good or not?<\/p>\n
      For me, I can accept that.<\/p>\n
      Finally, I build a WordPress Blog with the review of this server. The uptime will list on the page.<\/strong><\/p>\n
      That\u2019s end. Enjoy yourself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
