Andrew from 5ite emailed me about their summer promotion. You can also find the same offer on WHT. Use coupon code SummerVPS to get 30% off recurring discount. Their VZ-1 plan would be $5.57/month after the discount. Direct sign up link.
- 256MB guaranteed/384MB burstable memory
- 30GB storage
- 3TB/month data transfer
- OpenZ/SolusVM
You can also choose between Falkstein Germany or Chicago USA on the sign up form. Their previous $5 Germany VPS with huge burstable memory is still available (at least the order form works), and that was a more interesting offer. Andrew has been running VPS hosting there since mid-last year. UK based business.

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.
> and that was a more interesting offer
Many would disagree that 200 GB (vs 3 TB now) was more interesting. :)
Yes depends on what you use the VPS for I guess. Even my main site uses less than 1TB/month across 2 VPS hosting a site with almost 10M PV/month, but that’s mostly text.
And I think the 200GB would not be less oversold than 3TB, since they probably both plugged into the same circuit anyway (being from the same provider).
I like having some headroom especially in bandwidth, in case my site gets slashdotted or I need to distribute a large file. Anything less than 500 GB/month just doesn’t give me peace of mind :) Even though normally my website uses a lot less.
I’ve been with 5ite for a while when running my Round Robin, my German customers love my hosting they get a real fast connection to my website.
I purchased additional RAM from them and they had a mistake and it said additional when they meant change ram to and they just gave me the RAM additionally.
