I only paid 2.59$ for a server where i can play with my friends and the server works great, i didn't have any second of lag. If u guys are looking for a cheap hosting service use hythost, it's the best.
You get stable, good server for the price. I will recommend using them if you do not want to spend a lot of money for your server. And also support is really helpful and efficient.
My server got griefed and i was not able to restore any of the backups. HytHost replied to me within 1 day and within 2 days, the server was as great as new.
Cheapest Minecraft hosting, compared fairly
How HytHost compares at the budget end
"Cheapest" only means something if you get a real server for the money. Here is how our entry plan lines up against the big budget hosts on the things that actually decide whether a cheap plan is worth it. Our price is shown live above; the competitor columns list their publicly advertised entry tiers.
| Provider | Entry price | Starting RAM | Player slots | Storage | DDoS protection | Renewal | Setup fee |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HytHost | €2.59 / month | 2 GB DDR4 | Unlimited | 50 GB NVMe SSD | Voxility 1 Tbps+, free | Same as signup | None |
| Shockbyte | from ~$2.50 | ≈ 1 GB | Unlimited | SSD | Included | Verify current term | Verify |
| Apex Hosting | from ~$3.00 | ≈ 1 GB | Unlimited | SSD | Included | Verify current term | Verify |
| ScalaCube | from ~$3.00 | ≈ 768 MB–2 GB | Unlimited | SSD | Included | Verify current term | Verify |
Competitor specs and prices reflect what each provider publicly advertises at the time of writing and are shown for orientation only — always verify current terms on their own site before you buy. Our own price above is pulled live from our system.
The pattern at the budget end is that a very low headline price usually means less RAM, slower storage, or a price that only applies to the first term. Our approach is the opposite: more RAM at the entry level, NVMe rather than plain SSD, enterprise Voxility DDoS included free, and a renewal price that matches your signup price.
What you actually get on the cheapest plan
The entry plan is a full server, not a trial. It includes:
- 2 GB DDR4 RAM on high-clock Ryzen / Intel i9 CPUs — enough for a Vanilla, Paper or small-plugin survival server with friends.
- 50 GB Samsung NVMe SSD for fast chunk loading, not a mechanical or shared disk.
- Unlimited player slots — the RAM is the real limit, not an artificial slot cap.
- Free Voxility Anti-DDoS (1 Tbps+) on every plan, including this one.
- Daily backups, a full GameCP panel, live console, file manager and SFTP, and a free subdomain.
Need more room later? Move up to 3 GB, 4 GB or higher in a couple of clicks — your world and configs stay in place. If your group is small, the cheapest plan is genuinely all you need to start.
No renewal hike, no hidden fees
The most common trap with cheap hosting is the second invoice. A host advertises a low first-month or first-term price to win the comparison, then renews much higher. It is worth checking the renewal price on any host before you commit.
At HytHost the price you sign up at is the price you renew at. There is no setup fee, no charge for DDoS protection, and no paid add-on required just to keep your server online. What you see above is what you pay, this month and next year.
You can pay monthly and cancel anytime from the client area — there is no long lock-in contract to reach the low price.
How we keep it cheap without cutting the server
We are a boutique host, not a reseller stacking hundreds of tiny servers onto one box. We run our own high-clock hardware in a single well-run datacenter in Chișinău, keep the plans simple, and price the entry tier to be genuinely affordable rather than a bait number.
Support is real people on Chișinău hours (8 AM – 11 PM), we target 99.9% uptime, and the same NVMe + DDoS + daily backups apply whether you are on the cheapest plan or the largest. Cheap here means efficient, not stripped down.
