We get it, it’s 2020 and plenty of websites utilize terribly annoying and obtrusive ads on their websites. But that isn’t the case here at Low End Box and Low End Talk, where we only have a few advertising areas, with only relevant advertisers (hosting companies, etc). We don’t have any banner, Flash, animation, obnoxious sound, or popup ads. We do not implement these annoying types of ads!
From our data we know that many people utilize an ad block feature built into their web browsers which is preventing the page from fully loading.
We rely on the earnings from ads to operate Low End Box and Low End Talk, and all of it comes from our online advertising.
Please add lowendbox.com and lowendtalk.com to your ad blocking whitelist or disable your adblocking software.
Thank you so much for your support and consideration. And most importantly, thank you for visiting our websites.
Jon Biloh is the owner and operator of LowEndBox and LowEndTalk, two of the most recognized platforms in the global web hosting and infrastructure community. With nearly two decades of experience in the IT industry, Jon has spent his career building, growing, and acquiring internet infrastructure companies, with a focus on affordability, transparency, and performance.
Before acquiring LowEndBox and LowEndTalk, Jon was involved in founding and scaling several hosting-related ventures, from bare-metal data center operations to high-volume cloud platforms. His hands-on understanding of both the business and technical sides of infrastructure has shaped his approach to community building and editorial strategy.
Today, Jon’s mission is to modernize and expand the LowEnd ecosystem while staying true to its roots: serving developers, small businesses, and independent providers who value control, value, and community. Under his leadership, LowEndBox is evolving into more than just a deals site, it’s becoming a resource hub, media platform, and discovery engine for DIY hosting enthusiasts and indie cloud providers.
When he’s not working on platform improvements, Jon can be found engaging with users on LowEndTalk (@jbiloh), collaborating with providers, and exploring new ways to support the next generation of internet builders.
I whitelisted this site a while ago. Because I know how useful this community is. Thanks for keeping this awesome site running!
Thanks for your support, we appreciate it.
My first visit here in many many many months, if not years. I’m not a regular visitor or contributer, but I saw this post – okay I thought. No sooner had I refreshed the page and I have 4-5 flickering animations distracting me all down the right-hand side of my screen. Sorry but I just cannot concentrate on reading with all that going on in my peripheral vision. It really goes against your ‘no animations’ statement in this post. I know you need to cover costs but that is my feedback as to why I immediately turned my ad-blocker back on. Cheerio.
Thanks for your feedback. We try our best to keep our advertisers specific to hosting and as non intrusive as possible.
