Best hosting service, and tutorials for modded minecraft

[fredrodregus]

I want to start an modded minecraft gaming community, but the problem is, i don't know a lot about running an server or web site. Also i would like to bundle an game server with an website, and teamspeak server if possible. Is there any site in particular that you would recommend, and where can i find some good tutorials.

Thanks

and would you recomend enjin for the website?

I would suggest getting one of those Windows 7 Professional Mini ITX Newegg deal computers for around $120 and running the server off of that. 

Enjin is pretty good for a website, it even has built in voting.

IMO Nodecraft is pretty nice, amazing support, very fast and reliable servers.

As for the website, enjin is pretty decent for starting off.

 

Is the server a specific modpack?

I myself run a tekkit classic 3.1.2 server, in about 4 days or so it will have been online for 1 year (It had been up for like a year before that, but that was kinda on-off due to lack of funds for hosting, and lack of decent internet to host it myself)

Don't forget about DDOS protection... that shit can get pricey af.

Imo its better to just go with a hosting provider unless you'll be hosting quite a few large servers and can afford to pay for all that extra protection and shiz.

Eww ftb lol, I never cared a ton for those modpacks, they are all just so similar..

 

I would not suggest making a tekkit classic server, quite difficult to keep up and running with the amount of dupes, bugs, glitches, etc... that are in it, and also the fact that it stopped being updated a long time ago, so those bugs have to be fixed by other people, who most of the time don't release the patches

OVH and learn how to use Linux

Just use a DNS host. Usually free.

DDoS protection comes standard with OVH VPS's, it's good upto 50Gbps attacks, tested ti myself.

DNS wont stop anything, lol.

Oh damn, that's pretty cheap!

 

Was it the classic one that you tested it on?

But it wont stop your connection, which is the important part. 

I had a 150Mb/s connection just for my server when I ran it, so that could have helped a bit.
