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.

“HostMist – $5 256MN”, corrections needed… you wrote MN instead of MB
Thanks for the listing Low End Admin :)
Bit odd that they have their main corporate site ‘hostmist.com’ on the same server as some of their clients?
http://viewdns.info/reverseip/?host=hostmist.com
This might be a stupid answer, but could it be that it’s some sort of a “failover hosting” just in case the main node where they’re hosted gets any problem?
support is good, never had a problem with them, i had 2 vpses for some months in WA.
Yes our main site is hosted on the shared / reseller server. It takes about less than 5 minutes to move it around (or anything using the DNS cluster).
Does that mean your cusomter data is stored on this machine as well (as is the case with most standard CPanel setups)?
Guys, your client section is not working. And – what is much more important – you can NOT send support ticket because of that!
I’m aware of the issue and already am working on it. Just happens to be a DOS attack and if you need support, you’ll use any of the alternatives (e-mail, MSN, Twitter, Skype) while this is being restored.
Everything else is up.
It should be back online again. For now, use the non SSL version until I can move it to a more permanent location with the SSL certificate re-issued.
The helpdesk was restored back to normal, the SSL version should work once again.
