    try using virtual gladiator they only charge for ram, you can set how many players you want

    even better host it yourself to avoid getting ripped off

    Well "affordable" is a very flexible term. I normally just host it myself on a VPS. I've never tried Virtual Gladiators, but it looks like @Thunder33345 is right.

    No dont use vgmc u will regret it, use it for hosting a small server eg for roleplay or testing plugin. VGMC's cpu is disgusting.
    For affordable + quality i would recommend Vastitude (https://vastitude.net/clientarea/cart.php)
    You can get a free plan for a month I think with...
    512MB Ram
    Unlimited Slots
    Unlimited SSD Storage
    Unlimited Bandwidth
    DDos Protection
    Daily Backups
    MySQL Database
    Multicraft Control Panel
    Full FTP Access
    Custom Jars
    Instant Setup
    Or buy a $1 server ;D
    I dont use this host btw I use another one..

    According to the features list and specs info, it doesn't use PocketMine.

    I personally think, the best host I've ever used on a budget is probly https://www.hostmyservers.fr/ except that if you live in the US (like I do) it will be very laggy because of the very high latency. The best host I've used in general (if you're willing to spend more money) is hostingitall.com but they shut down a short time before MCPE realms was finally released, as they were worried that they would lose business because of realms.

    They do use Pocketmine, I did a suppourt ticket. You have to switch on Multicraft.

    I'm still not sure it would be a good idea though. If you're reccomending them, then why aren't you using them yourself?

    Cubed-host is a good server provider with excellent 24/7 customer service. The latency isn't bad at all! You can also set your own player count, baring in mind the cpu that you will buy in your plan.
    However the ftp access isn't great and I would recommend downloading a 3rd party fps server app of program to do this with ease!
    Hope this helped!

    "Good specs" and "affordable" are inversely related - the real questions are how much can YOU afford to pay every month, and which host can give you specs that YOU consider to be good enough for that amount of money.

    As mentioned in another thread on this topic, if you are at all serious about hosting you'll need a host that offers a powerful multicore CPU, SSD, hardware DDOS protection, FTP, on-site backups etc which all comes at a cost that (for you) might be unaffordable... If you aren't too bothered about DDOS attacks then most VPS will do the job, and if it is only for you and a few friends - or if your idea of 'affordable' is 5$ per month, for example - then just host it at home for free and keep your cash.

    I should add that of all the server hosts I used before getting a dedicated server, and I tried a lot, Netherbox was easily the best for prebuilt plans. However, their dedicated server DDOS protection was not up to much, and I was told I had to move after several attacks, or pay an extra couple of hundred dollars a month.

    Some do. But keep in mind that it's not truly "unlimited" RAM. They may not have a specified limit, but there is one there. No hardware in existence can offer unlimited of anything.
