Server Host Options
I'm looking for the best Server host for my needs.
The server is a 1.21.4 server with backward compatibility and cross-play between Bedrock and Java edition through Geyser. The plan is to support up to 100 players on average from the beginning and needs to be able to handle factions gameplay and a small handful of plugins. The server will be hosted in the continental united states.
The budget would ideally be less than $40 USD per month. |
-# Willing to hear up to $50 USD per month for purely research purposes.
The providers I've mentally narrowed the options down to are:
- Hostinger with their 2 year plan that's heavily discounted that provides 16gb of ram.
Hostinger provides a cheaper alternative than other services, this allows us to determine if the product will be financially viable prior with less financial risk attached to the investment.- ReliableSite
At a cheaper price (after the 2yr discount) than Hostinger but a higher up front price, ReliableSites offers dedicated hardware, double the ram and double the storage space. This is a much riskier upfront investment but is capable of supporting much more players than 100, somewhere around an estimated 225, allowing for uninterrupted growth.I'd like to your best analysis of these two services and other services within the same price range that match our needs. One such option in my mind would be to use Hostinger for the first 2 years, and afterwards switch to ReliableSite should the server prove to be financially viable. However, the biggest concerns are just how reliable hostinger truly would be and I've seen high positive reception through YouTube and mixed-negative reviews through Discord. We also plan to use Velocity to link servers together. As in the future we plan to expand out of solely factions, so if this factors into the analysis please provide information. Thank you.

Doesn't seem to save anything beyond spawn.
