Special Launch Offer now available! 15 Oct 07
Our special launch offer, “buy 6 months get 6 months FREE”, is now available to purchase. We’re currently only taking payments via Paypal (PayPal account not required) for the launch offer, although we can accept bank payments via CHAPS for those customers who are unable to use PayPal.
The launch offer is limited to 2 special offer boxes per customer and there are only 100 available in total. The offer will close on 29 October (in 2 weeks time).
** UPDATE ** (1 Nov 2007): We’re extending the launch offer for another week as we’re still working on our “proper” payments system. Those customers who have already signed up for the launch offer will get another month free :)

Brightbox looks very promising and it’s tempting but I’m still not sure about paying 6 months up front for an as yet unproven service. Lifetime accounts for early adopters would be interesting and I for one would be happy to risk a large initial payment if it was against something like this.

Hi David – surely if you’re concerned about the service, a smaller up front commitment (e.g our launch offer) offers lower risk than a larger up front commitment (e.g for a “lifetime” account)?

Yes I see your point. I guess I’m just just a bit jealous of a couple of other developers I know who took lifetime VC accounts at Joyent while I’m paying monthly fees for all my hosting requirements. Looks like a great move in retrospect.

To be honest, I put “lifetime” offers in the same category as “unlimited” diskspace/bandwidth offers that some ISPs pretend to offer. I’m probably going to write a blog post about it actually.
We prefer the wysiwyg approach to pricing :)
