UPDATE: Made it Clickable
UPDATE 2: A good Insight on Servers(Quick Read)
Spoiler (Click to View)

I used GGservers before right I ran like around a 9-12 player base server. Quite honestly their was a little lag, but not as bad as others. Yes the only thing that was shit is their response like HOLY shit its very bad. If you know what you are doing its really not that bad. I didn't have any lag problems with them at all quite honestly I wouldnt rate them HQ but maybe in the medium section. I just got an email from my old hosting saying they just revamped it and an one hour average response time.

I actually just finshed with Host Havoc. Things that make them APPEAR strong.

Some time Clay (Owner) would respond in a few mins ,but I dont belive he has to staff to watch tickets. One time I rember that my server got shut down for about 7-8 hours do to the fact that when my plan upgraded it changed my IP. Anyways Host Havoc is good for a starter server but not for a bigger player base of around 30+.

Now currently hosting on OHV. Its the best thing ever honestly. Its probably one of the best host you can get so far and atleast I know of. I run around a 21-30 player active server during the afternoon in EST and I get a good amount of players with no lag.

This is my minetrends chart of OVH TPS with around a 21-30 player active server. https://gyazo.com/89da7514646c4b364012313b931335ba

Overall if you have the money and the donations their go to OVH as they are a top pick to me. Shared Hosting remember is a shit ton of people on one dedi. Be aware RAM dosent always solve the problem. CPU has a big step in it. So Shared Hosting isn't always the best idea.

UPDATE 3: Are you looking for a Mod Pack Host? Hosts labeled with "M" are tested modpack hosts and highly recommended!
UPDATE 4: Updated Key and did research into hosts that have been up for 2+ years and are reliable.

I'm also hoping the "Need hosting" threads get cut down as well due to this.

I don't agree with MCProHosting on the high quality section. I've had plenty of problems with them. They may be good for small 5-10 player server. I had a server with them and once we hit 50 players or so, the server began lagging. There weren't many plugins or anything, it just wasn't a good experience. We swapped to an OVH dedicated server a few days later, and everything ran like it should.

My shared hosting company of choice is Creeperhost. I've used them plenty of times in the past, and never had a problem with them. You can also install more games like starbound and source games to host. They've even got a great control panel that isn't Multicraft.

GGServers may be cheap, but we have taken steps to improve our service quality.

We do in fact have DDoS protection all of our nodes except of the ones in Las Vegas.

We also have our premium line that runs on SSDs.

[Superstition]

Jesus. When are you going to admit that your service and support is complete shit?
Just searching for GGservers on HF will bring up more bad things than good ones.

Our sales thread is 60/40 feedback last time I checked. We have taken actions to improve our quality of service, and still keep the $3/GB price point.

We actually have 2 interviews for tonight for new staff to get the support quality and time up.

[Custody]

By the way, to any potential readers out there, when Hypixel says they are being "hosted" by MCPH, it does not mean that when you buy your servers, you will get the same quality that Hypixel has.

Hypixel is on sponsored dedicated servers that MCPH owns.
When you buy a server from MCPH, you will be getting shared hosting instead.

[Nicᴋ]

Ok updated the thread. I honestly like MCPH, they respond fast to my tickets which IMO makes them stand out against the other competitors. And... fuck GGServers... I can give a million reasons why they are a LQ host.

[Lamee-Ven0m]

GG servers are not good, dont buy there, RAM/CPU is shown of high usage when a server has no plugins/map ETC i think its shared completely, we need a company that offers your own dedicate space.

That is why a dedicated server is the way to go if you have the money and player base for it. A CPU and all the ram that you can pay for, all to yourself. SYS and OVH are the way to go if you can afford it.

gg servers is BAD
and remove the /fr/us from soyoustart because when you are from holland they sell special game dedi's



that are like 10-12,50 euro's for 2 weeks so 20-25 euro's for a ddos protected game dedi :) (32gb)

just a tip, change your ip to a dutch ip, buy the game dedi and you will save ALOT of money ;)

[Dayumm]

add ovh.com/ to dedis for bigger servers :D
then quadhosting.org/ at Moderate Hosting/Medium Quality, and ye its ddos protected & uses ssd
netherbyte.com at Cheap Hosting/Low Quality
remove MCPH from high quality, put them at Moderate Hosting/Medium Quality/Overpriced Hosting

Updated from what people have been suggesting. Keep on adding some more!

Updated again with 2 hosts from HF! Put them in a new section because of how new they are and the very small amount of reviews.

I believe that kimsufi (http://www.kimsufi.com/uk/) should be added under VPS/Dedicated Server. Kimsufi is a sister company of OVH (as is soyoustart), although kimsufi is meant to be a more affordable option as compared to soyoustart or OVH and therefore offers lower specs.

Also to my knowledge OVH and all their sister companies (soyoustart and kimsufi) have free DDOS protection that kicks in after an attack has been detected.

Kimsufi servers are weak though.. only the KS-4 has a cpu that's good for minecraft
