    I don’t have any suggestions to add, I just want to thank everyone at LEB and the community for all the great deals, content, and advice.

    I run a software startup that does quite well and it would not have happened without LEB. When we first started, I had no idea what to do with servers and provisioning and LEB provided a low cost yet effective solution. In fact one of the earlier $10 a year OpenVZ server provider we first used to test and sell our original product is still in use and the provider now hosts hundreds of our servers for customers along with AWS.

    Once again thank you to all the great people who make this happen. For all the kids looking for cost-efficient and versatile tech, have fun here!

  3. More technical tutorials about configuring, securing and maintaining dedicated/virtual servers and services like www etc. But not another incomplete guidebook of which there are many on the internet. Also more warnings about companies that are not trustworthy. twice this year, I took offer of VPS companies that simply deceived their clients (lowendbox and snowvps).

    Love the offers, keep them coming!
    As a beginner, I would like more tutorials and guide from the experienced folks here rather than having to go and watch other noobs on YouTube.

    – list of recommended providers
    – recommendations for new VPS installs/setups – i.e. must do for security etc
    – control panel recommendations
    – specific function recommendations i.e. what VPS for a mailserver, multi WordPress server, storage etc

    I appreciate, most of this is newbie stuff but it would be great to have a somewhere to go where actual pros in this give advice.

    I would like to see better vetting of some of the new “players”. It’s well and good to promote new people, but require enough information so only “real” businesses can show up.

    Also make sure the tags match the offers. Like if I am looking for a KVM offer, I get other offers that didn’t even have a KVM type listed.

      Better vetting is something we agree with. We’re working to enhance that now. On the tags we’ll pay closer attention to that too.

    +1 for Better (and more) search options. And then some advanced search options, something probably built especially for LEB. For example: search by date (last 3 months, holiday specials, last year only, etc.), search by provider, search by features (RAM, disk size, number of IP addresses, etc.).

    This would be great!

  35. Hello,
    We’re doing quite well as a company, we’re healthy, sustainable and lots of positive feedback is being distributed by our end users. I have dealt with many customers over the years, and a lot know me as a solid individual and can vouch for that.

    What you’re referencing is simply a rumor, sadly. This rumor has also already been addressed. Now you’re simply re-distributing a rumor, in addition to creating an online username that is targeted towards our company in attempt to tarnish our name. Or perhaps, you truly believe everything you read online. I’m not entirely sure, but I wish you well.

    Hello Everyone,

    The work continues to improve our community and the websites behind it. I wanted to provide a review of what we’ve done the last two weeks along with what is coming the next couple of weeks:

    Completed in the past two weeks as of 2/13/2020:

    1. New hosting platform setup entirely on virtualized resources at numerous hosting providers.

    2. CloudFlare setup and migrated for both LEB and LET

    3. Low End Box WP and plugins all updated.

    4. Low End Box moved to new hosting platform

    5. Low End Talk environment prepared on new hosting platform, migration scheduled for 2/16/2020 — Updated, this was completed as scheduled tonight!

    6. Low End Talk plugins updated

    7. Low End Talk email fixed and SSL fixed

    8. Low End Talk registration fixed

    9. New writer hired (and discussed rules with her so mistakes happen less often)

    10. Hired community member Northern (on discord) to write 4 tutorials per month

    11. Discussed future of LEB and LET and my commitment to making our community better with @trewq at length and discussed specific ideas we could implement. Started the same conversation with the balance of the moderation team.

    12. Fixed the LET help desk (which we’ll officially start using shortly, pending convo with the mods)

    13. Got on Discord so I am readily available to anyone who needs me

    14. Updated and cleaned up the LEB help desk

    15. Removed all references to Deluxe and ColoCrossing

    16. Removed all static banner ads

    17. Reduced the amount of ad positions available through BSA to increase the value to our advertisers

    18. Shuffled some content positioning to make LEB and LET a little cleaner

    19. Updated some of the old LEB content pages to make things more consistent and uniform.

    20. Answered a whole lot of questions on LET and Discord

    21. Posted this thread on LET and a thread on LEB asking for feedback

    22. Gained access to all social platforms and posted on Facebook for the first time

    Additional Items Completed as of 2/21/2020:

    1. Low End Box email subscriber form on the main page is fixed. It will now send you a confirmation email upon joining and then send you notices each time a new offer is submitted.

    2. A second Low End Box tutorial writer from our community has been hired to provide paid content.

    3. A social integration has been completed for Low End Box so that posts are automatically pushed to Facebook

    4. A voting system to allow users to rate offers has been added to Low End Box

    5. Prep and testing is underway to update Low End Talk’s vanilla installation, which is scheduled for next weekend.

    6. Work continues to troubleshoot why nested comments are not working on Low End Box… working theory is it’s CloudFlare related

    7. Low End Box and Low End Talk email are now sending via Amazon SES

    8. The Low End Talk helpdesk has been cleared down of all old tickets and all new tickets have been replied to, or nearly all. Thanks to our mod team for their great work there.

    9. The Low End Talk helpdesk now properly sends email confirmations upon ticket submissions to the end user

    10. The Low End Box helpdesk has been cleared down and all old tickets replied to and closed. We’ve received a lot of new offers recently so we’re going to be working to get those written up the next few weeks

    11. More work has been done to clean up the back ends and remove old static ads from HVH, ChicagoVPS and ColoCrossing

    12. We’ve been making changes to Low End Box offers that do not conform to our rules or have other issues (thank you community for pointing these things out).

    13. We are investigating a bug with the mobile LET theme

    14. We are monitoring the loads on the new hosting platform and making changes as needed to make sure the websites stay super fast and stable.

    In addition to all of that we are still working to make a bunch of other changes as previously described. More is on the way.

        I did that, but there’s no feedback that the entered email address has been accepted, should there be?

        If not, then there’s another suggestion for you. ;)

        In any case, I appear not to be receiving notifications.

          Did you get an email asking you to confirm the email submission?

    Minor request: On the right side of the main page, there is a small panel with “Latest Comments”. Is there a way to extend the number of entries? Two suggestions, click to another page with a longer list of the latest comments, or make the main page list expandable/collapsible with more comments. Sometimes I want to see what the latest comments are but more than 5 have been posted by the time I check the site, and then it takes some clicking through and scrolling through several of the recent posts… Just an idea, or maybe there’s already a way to view these that I just don’t know about?

    Otherwise, my main suggestions for the site have already been expressed above (e.g. more low end dedicated server offers, cheap but legit KVM offers in the $20-$30/year range or less, cheap KVM storage offers, more research to help avoid people/companies that run away with people’s money or offer bad services, etc.)

    It’s difficult to maintain a site that caters to everyone, as we all have different requirements and preferences, but over the years, this site (along with LET) has helped me to find providers that mostly match what I’m looking for, and has helped to avoid a lot of headaches. I’d guess that everyone who has purchased from an offer featured here has probably at one time or another been duped, it’s happened to a lot of us. It’s difficult to avoid this, and there is risk in every provider we sign up with, and everyone’s experience here helps to make this site a great resource. I appreciate everyone’s contribution to making this site what it is, from the people behind the site, like Jon Biloh, and whoever else is behind the site, to everyone who takes the time to report back their experiences.

      I am glad that you’ve enjoyed the time you’ve spent on Low End Box and Low End Talk! Thanks for being part of our community. We are working hard to make things even better and plenty of our changes should already be obvious from the past 60 days. I really like your suggestion about the comments — I will look into that right away. Thanks again for being part of our community.

        Ask and you shall receive, it’s now the last 8 comments. Working on something better for a long term solution, too.

          Thank you for the modification, looks better already. I thought 5 was too few, but 15-20 would be far too many (to be showing up in a sidebar like that), so hopefully a long term solution can be found that will be useful for those of us who benefit from the “Latest Comments” feature. And I have been noticing a number of improvements to the site all around, glad to see this! Thanks again for your work.

            I just installed a plugin that allows you to subscribe to comments for each post. So I think that’s a nice addition too. Test it out and let me know what you think.

          Not subscribed to the email list, but it looks like eight in the sidebar might be fine for now, thanks!

          The follow-up comment feature that you added might be more useful for providers who want to know what people are saying about their listings, or if someone is interested in following specific providers, but it would be too many emails for me to get comments on various or all of the providers’ listings. Much easier to just quickly glance at the Latest Comments to see what people are saying about random listings that I may or may not be interested in following via email.

          Another minor observation is that when clicking on the latest comment link, it used to take you directly to the comment on the page with the “#”, but perhaps the nested comments have thrown that off a bit? Not sure. For now, I just have to scroll around, or search by date for whatever comment would be the most recent. Not a major inconvenience, just something that people who use, or click on the “Latest Comments” links might have noticed.

            I am noticing that too, but unfortunately this is something that is likely beyond my level of development expertise. I am going to have to try to find someone who can help troubleshoot that issue. I was playing with it a few days ago but didn’t have any luck.

            I have been cleaning up the back end, plugins, modules, etc, but haven’t been able to get that issue fixed yet.

    Oh, also, no offense, but I second a ban (or limitation) on ColoCrossing-related offers. I’ve had bad experiences with more than one of these, the worst was with a company that was run by someone currently working at ColoCrossing. There have been so many people complaining about ColoCrossing that it might do the community better to take a break from them for a while. The potential for conflicts of interest can also cause credibility problems in the long run.

      There have been very few offers hosted by ColoCrossing in the past 60 days on Low End Box. We are working on really diversifying the offers. :)

  65. First of all, I would like to thank you. Thanks to you guys, I found what I would say is probably one of the best deals I have ever found- $50/year for a 5GB KVM VPS. It has worked great for my game server, however now i have more players and am considering upgrading to a dedicated server. I would love to see more dedicated servers at low prices! Keep up the great work!

      Thanks for the suggestion, we have more dedicated server offers on the way over the next month.

  66. More reputable providers. Enough less reputable provider.

      Thanks for the suggestion. We are working with more providers who are larger to submit offers.

    Just an FYI we have fixed a minor bug with the comment subscriptions system on posts — everything is working nicely now. Enjoy :)
