What is a VPS?

A Virtual Private Server (VPS) is like renting a powerful computer that lives in a data center somewhere in the world. Imagine you’re using a computer that isn’t in your home—it’s hosted online and accessible through your internet connection. Think of it as having your own private workspace on the internet.

Why Use a VPS?

• Keeps Your PC Free: A VPS lets UltraScrapper run continuously without using your own computer’s power.
• Works 24/7: Even if you turn off your computer, the VPS keeps running. This is great for tools like UltraScrapper that benefit from constant use.
• Remote Access: You can log into the VPS from anywhere—your home, a café, or even your phone.
• Scalability: If you decide to manage more LinkedIn accounts or handle larger workloads, you can upgrade your VPS to handle the extra work.

How Does a VPS Work?

A VPS is essentially a portion of a larger, physical server that has been divided into multiple "mini-computers." Each one operates independently, so you get your own secure environment. You control this virtual computer, just like you control your laptop or desktop.

Using a VPS with UltraScrapper

1. Install UltraScrapper on the VPS:

   Think of the VPS as a machine dedicated to running UltraScrapper. You log into this machine remotely, install UltraScrapper, and let it run without worrying about your own computer slowing down.

2. Stay Online 24/7:

   Your VPS is always connected to the internet, so UltraScrapper can run continuously, even if you turn off your personal computer. This maximizes the number of profiles you can browse daily.

Setting Up a VPS

1. Choose a VPS Provider:

   Some good options include Contabo, Vultr, and DigitalOcean. These companies rent out VPSs at affordable rates.

2. Select a Plan:

   • For beginners, a basic plan with 2-4 GB of RAM and a single CPU core is enough.
   • If you want to manage more LinkedIn accounts, choose a plan with more power.

3. Access Your VPS:

   • Once you’ve rented a VPS, the provider will send you login details.
   • Use a program like Remote Desktop (built into Windows) to connect to your VPS.

4. Install UltraScrapper:

   Download and install UltraScrapper on the VPS, just like you would on your home computer.
