ValueGameNode is a place I found for Minecraft server hosting that is trying to be super cheap without hidden fees. The price starts at 2.49 euros a month so it feels made for people who do not want to overpay.
They say the servers run on high frequency AMD CPUs and NVMe SSDs so worlds and modpacks should load fast and gameplay should stay smooth. The data center is in Helsinki so it is aimed at low ping for players around Europe.
You manage everything with a Pterodactyl control panel and it has one click installers for plugins mods and server versions. You also get full SFTP and FTP access plus DDoS protection to help keep the server online.
They include a free subdomain and they offer a two day free trial on their Minecraft plans. Their BudgetCraft plan is listed at 4 GB RAM and 20 GB NVMe storage for a basic vanilla server or smaller modpacks.

SwiftServers is a free Minecraft hosting platform that feels way more professional than most free hosts. It is made for people who want real performance and not just sit in long queues or deal with super laggy worlds.
They use good hardware like AMD EPYC Rome processors and NVMe SSD storage. Every server gets 1 gig of RAM and a 1 gigabit network uplink so worlds load fast and chunks feel smooth. Player slots are not capped so your whole community can join.
The coolest part is the custom control panel. It is not a basic reskin. It is built from scratch and is very fast and simple so even new players can set up a server in seconds.
SwiftServers also has one click installs for big modpacks like Better MC RLCraft and All The Mods plus other Modrinth packs. You can swap between modded and vanilla pretty easily.
They use enterprise DDoS protection and have a built in backup system so you can create and restore backups quickly.
There are no hidden fees and no credit card needed. You just create a server and start playing right away.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
