Stop Renting “Slots”
If you run a gaming community, you know the pain. You rent a server from a generic “game hosting” site, pay $20/month, and still get lag when more than 10 people join. Plus, they limit your RAM and force you to pay extra for “mod support.”
The smart admins aren’t renting slots. They are renting VPS (Virtual Private Servers). With a VPS from a provider like Hostinger, you get dedicated RAM, NVMe storage, and a dedicated IP address. You are the owner. You can install Minecraft, Palworld, and Highguard on the same machine at the same time.
Here is how to set up a pro-level server in under 10 minutes.
Why Hostinger for Gaming? (The Secret Weapon)
Most people think Hostinger is just for websites. Wrong. Their Cloud and VPS plans are beasts for gaming because of three specs:
- NVMe SSDs: Game worlds load instantly. No “chunk lag” in Minecraft.
- KVM Virtualization: This ensures the RAM you pay for is 100% yours. No sharing with neighbors.
- The Game Panel: Hostinger has a specific “Game Panel” installer. You don’t need to know code. You just click “Install Minecraft” or “Install Rust” and it works.
Step-by-Step: Building Your Server
1. Choose Your Power Level
- For a friend group (5-10 players): The KVM 2 VPS plan is perfect. (Approx $7-10/mo).
- For a Community (50+ players): Go for Cloud Startup or KVM 4. This gives you the RAM needed for heavy mods.
2. The Setup
Once you buy the plan via the link above:
- Log into the Hostinger Panel.
- Select “VPS OS” and choose “Game Panel” (It comes pre-installed with AMP or Pterodactyl).
- Create your Admin password.
3. Installing the Game
Open your new Game Panel. You will see a list of over 80 games.
- Click Minecraft: Java Edition (or Highguard Community Server).
- Click “Update & Start”.
- Copy your IP Address and share it with your friends.
Cost Comparison
- Generic Game Host: $25/mo for 4GB RAM (Limited slots, no control).
- Hostinger VPS: ~$12/mo for 8GB RAM (Unlimited slots, Full Root Access).
The math is simple. If you want a lag-free experience for Shadow of the Erdtree co-op or a massive Palworld base, switch to a VPS today.
