Minecraft hosting vs dedi/vps? Difference?

[loltayber]

Im so confused why alot of people use vps/dedi instead while they are more expensive and has no difference or im wrong?
Because minecraft hosting cost like $1 and dedi cost $30 for 1 gb and you have to do it manually to setup a minecraft server. Can someone explain lol​

With dedicated servers you get the machine all to your self, you arent sharing it with someone.

Not sure what you mean by that. Hosting companies such as mcprohosting use a seever box that fit lets say 30 clients server so you hace to share that server box with 30 other people

That could also be the same with a VPS. But, there isn't anything wrong with sharing a server, performance will still be great.

Having a dedicated machine would fit you more if you are a linux guy who wants to do more than just setup a Minecraft server. Now if you are not a linux guy, and just want a Minecraft server, shared hosting is all you need.

VPS's are okay, and you can do a lot more with them, over shared hosting. However if you want the best performance, get a dedicated server, and hire a system admin, (or me ) to set it up for you. Price per GB can also workout cheaper if you use a dedicated server. So if you need 16GB+ then dedicated is the way to go. You can get a 32GB dedi for $49 a month, from SoYouStart, if i remember right.

A Dedicated server isn't really necessary unless you plan on running a large server, or network. Most of the time a server to play vanilla survival on with a couple of your friends is perfectly suited by either a VPS or Shared hosting. So yes, a Dedicated server certainly seems expensive, and that's because it is. Then again though, your average Minecraft player doesn't need the full power of a Xeon, with 32+GB of RAM, etc., etc.
