I guess the best VPN site is very relative, but I think I’ve got a good idea of some pretty good ones to recommend to you. I’ve listed a few services below, with details, and then at the bottom I’ve organized them into the top three. That way there’s a bit of something for everyone. Some people like details, and like making educated decisions. For those people, this isn’t, and/or won’t be, the only VPN review post they read. But for people like me, I hate researching stuff, and I want a simple 1-2-3 answer.

1. Hide My Ass
For all basic users and most advanced users, the features of HMA are more than enough. They offer the most stuff, for the cheapest price. That is the simple reason that they’re number one on my list.
2. 12VPN
There still are some things that HMA doesn’t offer, and what they don’t have 12VPN sure does. A large variety of VPN protocols and even some custom options for users in China and other countries where PPTP and L2TP have limited access. There are lots of customizable options, and if you’re not worried about where your VPN server is located, $79 for ten US city locations is a great price (remember than other services are charging the same for just one location)
3. StrongVPN
They’ve got a comprehensive service that has just about everything. Click on your country to find a VPN package that’s best for you, and live support can help you with any questions you have. Setup may be confusing for a newbie, but doable with the help of PDF files and live support. This is still a very ‘strong’ choice even though it’s ranked as number 3.
