VPS/VDS hosting in China

Sorry, we have nothing to offer yet

The VPS and VDS market in China continues to develop, but it remains highly regulated and under the control of government authorities. Due to mandatory ICP licensing requirements and restrictions on direct ownership of data centers by foreign companies, it is difficult to form a reliable list of the best VPS/VDS providers with Chinese servers.

In this regard, today it is impossible to compile a full-fledged Top 10 VPS/VDS providers, represented directly in China, without appropriate contacts and official cooperation - the list remains empty.

For those who are focused on the Chinese market, a reasonable alternative are services located in neighboring regions with good Internet infrastructure and direct communication channels with China. These are primarily Hong Kong, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia. Such locations provide low latency and acceptable traffic cost, provided that the selected provider has direct connections to Chinese operators.

It is important to check with technical support about the availability of such direct channels, because without it traffic may be routed through remote nodes, for example, Los Angeles, which increases delays and costs.

The main difficulties in choosing VPS/VDS providers in China are related to legal restrictions (especially the requirement of ICP license), as well as the fact that the list of international companies with servers operating in China is limited.

As a result, at the moment there is no updated rating of the best VPS/VDS providers with servers in China. Alternative regions remain a more attractive solution for most projects dealing with Chinese traffic.

We recommend keeping an eye on the market, and considering proven VPS/VDS providers in Hong Kong and neighboring countries where infrastructure and support are of a high standard.

When new data and direct cooperation opportunities in China become available, the rating will be updated and supplemented in due time.

It is important to check with your ISP for direct connections to Chinese Internet operators (BGP Peering with Chinese networks). Without such direct connections, traffic may be routed through remote locations (e.g., the US), resulting in increased latency and cost. It is also a good idea to look for Chinese-oriented user reviews and test connection speed and stability yourself.
