Minecraft server hosting that just works.
Vanilla boots in seconds. Modpacks install automatically on first boot. Every server ships with a free short domain, DDoS protection, daily backups, and a panel built for playing not babysitting.
One-click modpacks
Browse Modrinth and CurseForge directly from checkout. ATM10, Better MC, Create: Astral, RLCraft - they install themselves on first boot and surface live progress in your dashboard.
SRV record included
Your address is just `yourname.hostd.it` - no port. Minecraft clients auto-resolve the SRV record. 8 GB plans and above get the shorter hostd.it; smaller plans get hostdservers.com. Either way, it's free.
BlueMap live map, one click
Enable BlueMap from the dashboard and watch your world render in real-time 3D. Share the link with your community - no plugin installs, no config files, no SFTP gymnastics.
How much RAM do you need?
Minecraft is single-threaded.
Clock speed is the only number that matters.
The game loop - TPS, redstone, mob AI, chunk generation - runs on a single core. A 5.5 GHz core finishes each tick in time; a 3.2 GHz core doesn't, and lag is what you get. More RAM can't fix this. More cores can't fix this. Only clock speed does.
Tick budget: 50ms. Room to spare.
Tick budget blown. Players see rubber-banding, broken redstone, delayed mob damage.
Numbers illustrate typical load behaviour. Your server's TPS dashboard is in the panel.

Frequently asked
How much RAM do I need for a Minecraft Java server?
Vanilla with under 10 players is happy on 2 GB. Most modpacks need at least 4 GB; popular packs like ATM10 or Better MC want 8 GB to run smoothly with a normal-sized party. Pick higher if you're running heavy tech packs or expecting 20+ concurrent players.
Do you support modpacks from CurseForge and Modrinth?
Yes - both. You can pick a pack at checkout and it installs automatically on first boot, or install one later from the dashboard. We support pinned versions too, so you can stay on a specific pack release if you prefer.
Can I install individual mods and plugins?
Yes. The Mods & Plugins tab in the server dashboard searches Modrinth (mods) and Spigot (plugins) and installs the JAR in one click. Restart the server to load.
Do I get a free domain for my server?
Every Minecraft Java server gets a free subdomain with an SRV record pre-configured. Clients connect to just `yourname.hostd.it` - no port. Plans 8 GB and above get the shorter `.it` domain; smaller plans get `.hostdservers.com`.
How fast is provisioning?
Vanilla servers boot in under 60 seconds after payment. Modded servers install the pack on first boot - typically 1-5 minutes depending on the pack size - with live progress in your dashboard.
Can I bring my Minecraft Java world from another host?
Yes. Zip or tar.gz your existing /data - world folder, server.properties, mods, plugins, eula.txt - and upload through the Transfer step at checkout (new server) or the Transfer tab in your dashboard (existing server). Up to 10 GB. We snapshot the volume first and auto-rollback if the unpack or restart fails. See /transfer for details.
