Best/ most reliable/ cheapest TS3 Hosting? (Need advice)

Hi all,

Just wondering, what is the best/ cheapest/ most reliable TeamSpeak 3 hosting service that you would recommend for 25 slots. Preferably for a year's hosting.

Thanks!

Oh nice! Thanks for the replies guys, I've been hosting a server locally on my machine for some time now, perhaps a VPS is the best idea. Are those the only VPS services that you would recommend?

SSDVPS have been great for me, and doubled my RAM at some point for free (I'm getting 2GB for something like $4.50/mo): but their smallest package is a little more than you probably need ($24/year for 256MB, and as Scotty said you should be fine with 128MB)

I've not tried them so can't recommend them personally, but there's a stupidly cheap $5/yr 128MB VPS here, which might be worth a punt if you just want to try it out and see whether it's something that works for you. Use your own domain rather than an IP address and you can change hosts within about 24 hours if you have issues

Will it cost a lot for a domain? Sorry I'm not very good with this networking stuff :3 Also thank you very much for your recommendation.

If your not worried about being professional you could point a no-ip.org address at the IP for free. Although i think you have to log into their site every couple of months to keep it active or something like that. But you could change the IP it points too whenever you wanted.

Oh yeah that's a point! I forgot about no-ip. Thanks!

I have a question, what's the difference between OpenVZ and KVM in terms of hosting a teamspeak 3 server remotely?

From RamNode's FAQ

So for a TS server of a few friends or a clan i dont think it really matters

Alright cool. thanks
