Plex / Jellyfin FAQ
- How are these Plex / Jellyfin rankings calculated?
- We apply consistent scoring to comparable monthly price (USD), specs, refund notes, benchmarks when available, and latency-tier signals. This page adds a use-case shortlist on top of the baseline scoring. See Methodology for details.
- Why do you show “indexable plan pages” counts?
- Plan detail pages are only published when the plan has enough comparable signals (benchmarks, measured latency, refund signal, tracked price history, or reviewed notes). This keeps the site from generating thin/duplicate pages while still letting you browse the full dataset in VPS Finder.
- How should I validate the shortlist?
- After picking a budget tier, validate latency from your real user locations, then run a quick CPU and storage test on a trial instance. Always verify pricing and policies on the provider checkout page.
