Both Chris and Cody from SimpleRack wrote to me with different offers! Sorry I have to pick the better one here :) With promo code 695DOLLARVPS you can get their VPS – Entry Level for $6.95/month (down from $19/month), which comes with
- 512MB memory
- 30GB storage
- 700GB/month data transfer on 100Mbps
- OpenVZ/SolusVM
- 3 IP addresses
Discount available for first 15 customers only. Well. The actual saving is just 5 cents as the clearance page lists out the same VPS for $7/month. If you compare it with their previous offer it is actually more expensive. Servers co-located with Joe’s Data Center in Kansas City. Definitely not a one man shop though as from the previous post they have at least Cody, Chris and Bruce working there.

Hmmm, What Do You Think About HostShark? Deals Are Awesome, Comments Last Time Were Rough
LEA (LowEndAdmin) is the original founder of LowEndBox and the visionary who gave rise to an entire movement around minimalist, efficient hosting. In 2008, LEA launched LowEndBox with a simple but powerful idea: that it was possible to run meaningful applications, web servers, VPNs, mail servers, and more – on small, low-cost virtual machines with minimal resources.
At a time when most infrastructure discussions were dominated by high-end servers and enterprise platforms, LEA championed the opposite approach: lightweight Linux distros, self-managed servers, open source software, and thoughtful optimization. This philosophy gave birth to the term “Low End Box”, which would come to define a new genre of hosting tailored to developers, tinkerers, and budget-conscious users around the world.
Through LowEndBox and its companion forum, LowEndTalk, LEA built the foundation for what would become one of the most active and enduring communities in the hosting world, prioritizing knowledge-sharing, transparency, and accessibility.
After several years of nurturing the site and community, LEA stepped away from active involvement, passing the torch to a new generation of admins, contributors, and moderators. Today, LEA remains a respected figure in the LowEnd ecosystem, credited with launching a platform and philosophy that continues to influence thousands of infrastructure providers and users globally.
LowEndBox’s legacy, and its thriving community, is a direct result of LEA’s original vision.
I have mine, nice specs for testing :)

“Connection is untrusted” dispay over firefox – Even dont know how to use SSL….
I did not get a error with the ssl.
Anyway, does it seem surprising similar to joe’s DC VPSs. The order form does too.
Hello,
The order form looks similar because of Ubersmith. We have not yet integrated the order form into our website. All equipment is own by Simple Rack, Inc. from the drop down to the Cabinet at Joes Data Center.
Thank You,

How much burst ram?
with HDD raid supply?
Free backup or not?
We do not provide burst ram. We do have RAID 10 for all servers. We enable quick backup. Centralized backup must be purchased per a backup.
Thank You,

Almost 3 months with them, and never get down even for a minute. Fast access from Asia. I believe, beside Los Angeles (West Coast), Kansas is faster too from Asia region.
Hello Everyone,
We have decided to extend this promotion “Discount available for first 15 customers only” while supplies last. We will determine the date when this promotion will stop each week. We will update everyone on lowendbox when the termination date of this promotion is.
Thank You,
Chris Trower
