Best Minecraft Server Hosts 2017

Renting a server for the first time can be a daunting task with literally 100's of options to chose from and poor reviews. This post serves to compile a list of well reviewed hosts, list out main features, and provide a guide to what you need to look for. 


The above was gathered over the last day or two. I can't say specifically which is best or not. They all now come with 1 click Mod/Plug-in installation which is a great feature to have. You do need to watch out for the unlimited plans sometimes, because from what many say, you'll experience issues on the server.

After making this list, I decided the top three were best options for me, including BeastNode, CubedHost, and Exodus Hosting. These all have numerous online reviews, they have many options, and are fair priced. In the end I settled on ExodusHosting. So far the experience has been mixed, though this isn't due to Exodus, but rather learning MultiCraft Control Panel. It makes for simple mod install, though not all the config files are always loaded and can be hard to figure it out if not used to it. This is increasingly so if using smaller, less popular mods which may not have many tutorials available.

This is not a complete list, though was a thorough list gathered from multiple sources.

Shall we Start Some Fitness Talk?!

If you watched my latest video, (click here), and are interested in me sharing a bit more about fitness, some friendly competitions, etc. just let me know by leaving a comment below.

I don't generally film any of my exercises, but my friend grabbed a clip a few days ago after an hour of lower body work. So here's a video of my last 20 yards with my new prowler. Even with light weight, it still kicks some butt.

Next Video: General Squad Tactics

What to get involved with my youtube channel? Well it's not easy to do.
Check out this video for more info: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EeDeeYf5oMg
The basics of my next video will be General Squad Tactics, feel free to improve upon it!
Here's some things that will be included:
- Proper communication: Use callouts, ask if squad mate all clear before you spawn on them, let them know when you die, when you want to switch locations, etc.
- Use kits most effectively: Assaults with defibs move in last, allowing others to move first and draw out fire. Assault can clean them up and be there for the revive. Etc.
- Breaching Buildings: How to effectively clear a building, using a squad, communication, and kits all together.

This is just the basics. If you have anything to chime in to improve the video or add your own thoughts, let me know!
