$5? That's tad expensive in most of world. It's often better to use free tiers (https://github.com/ripienaar/free-for-dev) or $1 / $2 VPS (https://lowendbox.com/)

What I HATE about these VPS deals from lowendbox is my past experience of getting burned multiple times on VPS systems that have terrible uptime, become randomly unresponsive and the the provider being unresponsive, shutting down, or disappearing one day. I don't know if things have improved but I tread carefully because at some point my time and sanity become more valuable. Id love a microinstance for the cheapest possible price but I dont have a way to measure average uptime reliability.
