# 📦 VPS Setup Guide (Run SweepFlow 24/7)

Running SweepFlow on a VPS (Virtual Private Server) lets you keep tasks running 24/7, even while your personal computer is off. It’s perfect for scaling, scheduling, and long-term entries.

### ✅ Why Use a VPS?

* 💻 Keep your bot running while you’re offline
* 📅 Automate scheduled entries overnight or across time zones
* 🛡️ Use a dedicated machine to protect your home IP
* 🔁 Restart and rotate tasks without needing your main PC
