Via this WHT offer. HWS Hosting, who has been featured a few months ago, has released some new year promotions. Using coupon code NEWYEAR10 to get 50% recurring discount + increase resource limit. So for £4/month (~USD$6.47) you get:
- 128MB guaranteed/512MB burstable memory
- 30GB storage
- 300GB/month data transfer
- 2 IP addresses
- OpenVZ/SolusVM
- CentOS/Debian/Ubuntu/Fedora/OpenSUSE/Gentoo
You can pick either Bluesquare UK or Colo4Dallas US data centers. I saw that they have also swapped out HyperVM for SolusVM which can be quite a good idea.

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.
Just signed up for this, setup time was about an hour, which if done by hand I think is pretty good for a Sunday. First impressions are excellent, latency is very good. SolusVM or the CentOS setuo seems to have a slightly different iptables to the one I’m used to, but no problems so far at all.
I’m really not sure how they can offer this for the price, or how sustainable the price might be but so far recommended! I’ll report back when I’ve tested a bit more.
Thanks for the feature again, much appreciated.
We’ve been at this for almost 3 years now, don’t worry we wouldn’t be offering these packages if we couldn’t afford to :-)
The code seems still effective as if today, except it’s not 30gb storage but 15gb, otherwise I don’t have to think hard before making my choice.
At 2nd February will be full month using HWS Hosting and still continue. There’s no major problem and satisfied with the fast access from my country in Indonesia. Only 9 hops, just like my local data center :)
We’re going to let this stay running through February, enjoy!
Purchased from them yesterday night. The code still works for getting the discount, but i’m still waiting on getting access to the machine.
got my ip address and root password. quick turnaround time for a sunday!
Still £4.00 ($6.27)
