Not actually a server that's spinning up though is it?
You seem to get a locked down VPS. Looks like a Debian distribution, but no root access, no installing packages.
Couldn't find a link to their site in the article: http://jumpstarter.io/

I'd like to know that as well. It's interesting that they focus on WordPress. A custom WordPress install could potentially have several requests that make up a given page. Wordpress isn't really designed with reducing the requests in mind.
A request is a http request. Wordpress is getting increasingly better at keeping requests lower. And it's all up to a user how they optimise; they can get it down to just a couple of requests if they wish.
You may want to rethink that.

That seems a little weird. Let me put this in context, if I host my server on digitalocean for $5 a month or what ever, and let's say I have 1,000 visitors a day, which is rather small for a blog. And let's say I have a css file, js file, 10 images, and a website. That's 13 http requests assuming that nothing is cached. That translates to 390,000 requests a month (assuming 30 days), which is 90,000 over your 300,000…
You also assume nothing is cached, whereas only if those were all uniques would that be likely. Which is generally unlikely.
Our price is based around quality. Both the fact that we grow with you, and the fact that we strive to make every task you need to do, ridiculously easy.
The only metric used by them 'request' is not explained neither through the website nor FAQ found on Github! Good luck with taht. And i really hope it does not mean, what it means. If so it's darn expensive. perhaps more than MT.
Thanks for your feedback.

It's all relative. We save you time, and make sure your service is always up. We work with you through any pain points you have. If your server goes down, and you lose an hour of your time. You've already lost that difference. You also assume nothing is cached, whereas only if those were all uniques would that be likely. Which is generally unlikely. Our price is based around quality.

We do need to add it to the website, and to our brand new Github FAQ we're in the process of building. But a request is a http request. :) Thanks for your feedback.
on a sidenote, you have entered pretty much competitive market with tons of 'major players'. Deep down in our hearts we all know, what 'quality hosting mean'. They are all the same. some of them suck much other less. They all have down time. It's only up to you pay more or less for having almost same service from any of them. You are only good for them as long as, you have steady traffic than spikey ;)

So with 300,000 I get something like 10,000-15,000 pageviews which is pretty much nothing.
