Update December 2011 — HostMonkey was sold to WebRulon in Oct 2010, and they have just turned off their website in November.
Someone from HostMonkey emailed me about their exclusive offer for the LowEndBox readers. Use promo code lowendbox to get double resource when you order their Baby Chimp package. So for $5/month you get
- 256MB guaranteed/512MB burstable memory
- 20GB storage
- 200GB/month data transfer
- OpenVZ/SolusVM
It was less than 2 weeks ago when they last featured here, and I assume they are still using HostDime as their data center. According to HostMonkey the promo is only available to the first 10 signups.
They do have a customer according to the testimonial page. Bobby from Boondockseries.com praises them — registered by the same guy behind Nixism that got sold to HostDime 🙂 Well being 20/21 year old and 2nd hosting business — all the best with HostMonkey 🙂

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.
Really good design btw…
Really affordable pricing for all types of hosting. Not to mention, you get to look at that giant awesome monkey while you choose your plan 😛
Not that I expect anyone takes these guys too seriously, but it might be worth noting that boondockseries.com is with HostMonkey’s *shared* hosting, not their VPS offering. According to an IP search, they have three or four other customers on the same IP, around ten sites… most of them pretty spammy, MFA crap. Still, money is money, right?
@Mike
Yes, boondockseries is not using our VPS Services, he is on a shared web hosting plan. To my knowledge, we do not host any websites that send spam or involved in doing anything illegal. We haven’t received any spam complaints, or DMCA’s.
We are a reliable web hosting, search WHT(webhostingtalk) for reviews.
@HostMonkey

@Omio
