Sure, any free feature is attractive
I would suggest webmasters to look for a minimum uptime of 99%. In fact, even 99% is actually too low - it really should be 99.5% or higher. The host should provide some sort of refund (eg prorated refund or discount) if it falls below that figure.
Well and good if it protects against any attack for free.
I think its great. What's the capacity of the DDOS attack ?
Yes it seems attractive. However, you must mention how much of the DDoS attack would it be able to shield the VPS from. Also, would a dedicated hardware assigned to it ? (of course not i guess). So I'm guessing the protection would be on software level, and that is not very effective against medium to large DDoS attacks.
Have a search for sh3lls.net
Personally, I think it would be more attractive as a paid add-on, in order to segregate users who expect attacks from those who don't.
For free? :)
Of course we would like that... But it's not possible.
True DDOS protection costs providers a lot, so you cannot get that service for free.
Good combination for your site fe is vps + external mitigation services. But that also wont be so affordable, but still if you want decent ddos protection, you have to pay.
