$0.01 VPS from HostGator without sending verification
Hello, I know there's many tutorials on how to get a cheap VPS from HostGator, but unlike them this tutorial also shows you how to get your VPS without having to send verification like a picture of your passport, drivers license or the credit card that was used in your HostGator account purchase.
So enjoy this tutorial and I hope you gain something from it.
Ok let's start
Go to HostGator.com and press on VPS HOSTING

Drag this from Level 3 to Level 1

Press on Existing and write your domain

Ok when you did all that press Order Now!
Fill all the fields in with correct information and make sure you choose PayPal as paying method.
When you get to the Promotional Code part write TEXAS and press Validate.
When you're done with all this press Complete Your Order - Setup VPS Now
Press Pay Now and you should get redirected to PayPal
If you have a PayPal account with credit card on you should use that, but otherwise you can just press on Don't have a Paypal account? and you can just use your credit card like you normally would.
