Keep a clear view of your hosting.

Four concrete differences to help you choose based on your priorities.

An account without name, email or phone.

Our hosting account is created with a personal token. The documented AWS process requires a name, a verified email address and contact information. The criterion concerns account information; it does not claim that a bank card is mandatory in all new AWS processes.

At AnoneHost

The hosting account is created with a token, with no email or phone number.

At Amazon Lightsail

A name, a verified email address and contact details are requested during the AWS signup flow.

The traffic volume is advertised as unlimited.

The AnoneHost VPS plan advertises unlimited traffic. Lightsail provides a transfer allowance and bills excess outbound traffic per GB depending on the region. You are therefore comparing a billing method for transferred volume, without generalizing to all internal or inbound exchanges at AWS.

At Amazon Lightsail

The token-based hosting account is separate from the information required to register a domain name.

Unlimited traffic describes the transfer volume stated in the plan. The bandwidth remains that of the plan chosen.

The comparison covers the inclusion and billing method of the backups advertised. It does not compare their retention, restore time or measured performance.

Unlimited traffic does not mean unlimited bandwidth. Bandwidth remains that of each plan.

The questions that make the difference.

Does Amazon Lightsail always require a bank card at sign-up?

That is not what this comparison says. The account point compares the information requested in the documented AWS process with our token-based hosting account. It does not generalize bank card requirements.

Which Lightsail snapshot cost is compared?

The cited source states 0.05 USD per GB per month to store manual and automatic snapshots. The comparison concerns Linux or Unix instances and the backups advertised in our Linux VPS, not backups of other AWS products.
