Via this WHT offer. If there’s an advice from me today, be very careful when you deal with aliens — at least from all the sci-fi movies I’ve watched over the years, they never come in peace! That does not stop people from adopting this as their company name though. AlienVPS claimed to “abducting the competition” with their offerings that start from $7/month. You get
- 512MB guaranteed/2048MB burstable memory
- 25GB storage
- 1500GB/month data transfer
- OpenVZ
The package does look too much like Virpus’ package that has been on offer for the last 6 months. A reseller perhaps? However in the WHT forums when asked about the IP address, an IP address in Phoenix was given.
Domain was only created last week with WHOIS protection. The ToS page is missing. Just hope that it does not abduct the customers and their data 🙂

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.

@ikr.
Yeah, I saw this thread at WHT.. but I think alot of these hosting Co. is operated by teens..
@ikr.
Well if his partner is 18 or older then they most certainly can. Dunno who the partner is though.
Wonder if anybody signed up yet?
Thanks for the comments guys! To clear some things up we are not a reseller and own our nodes.
Our servers are located in Phoenix,Arizona with SecuredServers. Hence the trace.
Over the past few days we have had multiple sign ups and are pleased with the launch, and the Terms of Service has always been up.
Cheers!
@ Phoenix !

@Omio — it has been stated before that they host their main site with HostGator to isolate themselves from potential issues with their own network. When your VPS is down, you don’t want to see your provider’s web site is also offline due to data center-wide issues.
