For someone new to self hosting can you recommend cheap VPS to try simple things with? Can pay by hour like some cloud servers let you do or pay full month in advance.

I have an actual 1,20$/month VPS with vpshostingservice.co and it has a static ipv4 address, 1 vCPU, 1GB RAM and 15GB SSD storage and unmetered bandwidth.
