Create a Linode account to try this guide with a $ credit.
This credit will be applied to any valid services used during your first  days.

A Linode account is your gateway to deploying and using Linode’s products and services. If you’re new to Linode, see the Getting Started guide to learn how to sign up for an account and deploy your first service.

Multiple Users

Every account can have multiple users, each with their own permissions. This enables each person on your team (from account managers to developers) to use Linode with their own set of credentials and levels of access. See Manage Users and Set User Permissions.

Enhanced Security

Protect your account with added security by using two-factor authentication or logging in with a third-party provider. Each Linode account is also further protected by user-defined security questions and phone verification.
