Avish from Evolucix emailed me to have his web hosting company listed here. They seem to have discount on their virtual servers at the moment, which drives their low end package — “Evo256” — down to $5.95/month. Order it here.
- 256MB guaranteed/512MB burstable memory
- 10GB storage

Servers with Tailor Made Servers in Dallas TX (test IP: 72.9.144.4). Domain has only been registered since August 2010. A bit of search found that it might have been run by high schoolers. Interestingly that in their terms of services, they actually explicitly forbid the minors from signing up hosting services. Otherwise IRC is never mentioned, and no torrent is allowed.

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.
If it’s run by a couple of high schoolers who can;t enter into a legally binding contract, doesn’t that make any agreement null and void?
It would be valid if they had a legal business formation. Otherwise, no.
Can a junior be a director of a company in a legal structure? Not in where I am from. Unless they are some mature high schoolers :)
Well, they would likely need to have their parents be the ones who sign off on the formation and then they would “work” for the business. That’s how it would go down legally. Barely any minors will do this.
I have no idea what Evolucix is actually doing.
That makes it interesting if the parents signed off on what their doing. Makes me wonder about the SSL cert then and how it was obtained.
$5 setup fee? What a joke.
Actually, after doing some digging, it looks like one (if not both) are 18 years old. So technically, yes, they can legally enter a binding contract. If the business is registered under the 18 year old’s name, then technically speaking it is a legal business. It seems like they’re doing alright, though. No complaints and the web hosting community doesn’t seem to be up in arms about them just yet.
