We define a “Low-EndBox” as a cheap virtual server. “Cheap” is obviously relative and changes over time. When LEB started, cheap cloud hosting meant a 64MB RAM server for $5 or less. Today you can easily get 1GB of RAM (16x the resources) for the same price, and without much effort you can probably find a 2GB cheap vps for that price.
We’ve featured insanely low prices on LEB but as with everything there are trade-offs. When you sign up with a big provider like Amazon or Microsoft, you’re paying for stability. With Lowend hosts, you may be dealing with a one-man band.
- You get more for less
- You want predictable pricing
- Not everything needs production quality
- You like the personal touch
- You want exotic locations
