I'm after a list of small hosts
Hi all.
I am thinking about starting a directory/blog of small webhosts, and I need to find some.
What I am looking for:-
Hosts that have been in business for over a year, with their present onwer.
Hosts that are in it for the long term. Not to build it up and sell it off.
Hosts that have less than 5 people working for them.
A prime example would be Hostigation, where it's a one man show and has a solid rep.
Just replay to this topic or drop me an email, with your company's name to admin[at]littlehosts.com, and I'll do some research.
This is not limited to VPS providers. Shared and Dedicated ones are welcome too.
Please help or it will look rather empty . Just think of it as free advertising

Why don't you do research by yourself, trying hosters from http://lowendbox.com ?

@breton I was half asleep when I wrote this . (on 3rd cup of coffee now)
After delving deeper into a post, LEB will be quite handy
@kujoe with securedragon for sure

ololol, might as well list mine here with loomhosts.
You can use http://cheapvpsdeals.net/providers-birthdays/ to see a list of companies birthdays(in terms of domain age). And as far as I know most lowend providers only have a few employees. In terms of company ownership changing hands I can't help you with that. If I had CVDBot up monitoring nameservers among other things I could be detecting that, but is down ATM.

Our company fits your criteria also.
This is just sad. I'm not listed on too many places
I also thought about manually checking companies registration status(LLC etc...) but that's way too much work, besides many states aren't even up to date in terms of their online DB and for international I don't even know how that works. I know for domains though lot of European countries are a pain and don't list when a domain is registered etc... They still fail though because that info can be acquired by sites that monitor new registrations and that's why every single EU plan on my site has their dates in my db.
@taipres: I think it's only because of the influx of hosts nowadays. Remember when LowEndAdmin started this site and $7/mo. VPS's were rare back then? It was easier to run checks earlier. Of course, I wouldn't say it's impossible - given that LowEndBox is in fact, now run by a few men instead of just LowEndAdmin himself in the past - just that it would take a LOT of work.
@Boltersdriveer http://loomhosts.com/singaporevps.php is broken.
@taipres: Yes it is . Just have to find time to make it available again with the content :S
Well I think your site is very nice besides that, you may want to make it a simple page with "Coming soon" or something instead of a dead link. I know many are after Asian boxes too.
Yep, it only turned out like this after the server move. Probably because it didn't move files without a valid chmod level :x . Will make it available soon though.
Thanks all
Much appreciated, I got alot more from here, than WHT
I found this site the other day, might be helpful for you: http://webhomepal.com/
Thats really handy, thanks
Looks the best out of all the list type thingamajigs I've seen.
Infinity you can't be serious?
No kidding, that's pretty damn slick. A lot less clusterfuck than most of the similar models, too.
Now THAT is original, and not copying a website. Cough
Thanks for the share!
I can and am being serious. No offence but your one definately doesn't compare, it's got some boring colours, in some sort of modal window which is sort of annoying, it's too long (have to scroll down), too wide (have to scroll to the side), dare I continue?
Elliotj I don't respect your opinion, at all, nor do I respect Aldryics, I do respect everyone elses in this community though. But whatever works for people.
I suggest you don't continue because you're gonna lose my site has a ton more features than that rinky dinky lets list a few hosts non-sense.
Hey guys look a sort table is INNOVATION, cause no ones done that before http://cheapvpsdeals.net/table.php lol you guys make me laugh. Sort table is that entire sites model, that's ALL it does and it doesn't even do that very well. Granted i'm updating my sort table to show all data I got on hosts.
Do you honestly think we care whether some kid that's treated this community with nothing but scorn 'respects' us?
You're barely worth the bytes making up these characters, son :P
Taipres, I never mentioned you, nor do I seek approval on my opinions :P
Gah, why can't you just say 'Hey, that looks kinda cool' and get over yourself?
You fail, that was a perfect opportunity to have him get off your lawn
You invented sortable tables?!
You GENIUS!
