How To Determine The Worth Of Free Minecraft Server Hosting Offers

By Edward Martin


The world of online gaming has been experiencing something of a virtual revolution in recent years and the availability of free Minecraft Server Hosting solutions is a welcome development. Industry enthusiasts as well as leading reviewers are understandably excited at the news. While the offers are there in their dozens, not every one of them is crafted for effect on every need. Perhaps the best piece of news is that these solutions are more often than not offered on easy to use and intuitive interfaces.

Although the Minecraft game has not been fully launched on the web, the beta version available has created a palpable buzz that has had even professional reviewers' interest piqued. Whichever of the solutions you finally settle for, there is no excuse not to pick only those offers that are packaged with a guarantee of round the clock service availability. Just because an offer is offered free of charge does not have to equate to less than perfect connections.

While your particular playing habits as well as the platform on which you are accessing the service will have plenty to bear on what the proves an adequate solution, there are important pointers that must not be ignored in trying out any product. The full extent of the storage space bundled with the offer is one such consideration. In fact, some offers give players up to 10GB of free storage.

You should as well give weighted preference to offers that give you a hassle free access as well as setting up of the account. With advances in technology being witnessed on a daily basis, it should not take a virtual eternity to have you account approved. Some less than satisfactory offers delay applications ostensibly because interminable admin checks have to be carried out. In truth, no offer should take more than a few minutes so long as the applicant has a valid email and username.

A speedy and perpetually on connection is another consideration that will have a lot to bear on whether a solution is adequate or not. While your Internet connection itself has a big part to play in guaranteeing a flawless experience, the server's speeds are crucial too. Your fast broadband connection can matter a little if the host cannot provide for speedy returns for your online queries.

It is a good idea to test out the efficacy of any offer from your own computer. Use the Ping application that is a standard feature of your operating system to check how effective your connection is. Ping several servers that are offered and only go for the one that has the lowest times for a variety around the clock.

Another feature that should guide your eventual choice should be the extent of the support that the service provider gives. Granted, just about every free hosting offer comes with a requirement to run ads on the console but this should not be all the content you should have on your screen. A comprehensive knowledgebase of how the platform works is crucial when you need to do occasional troubleshooting. It also helps to have access to online forums where users can meet an exchange tips and gaming ideas.

Without a doubt, you will find plenty of reviewers on the web fronting testimonials of solutions they have ostensibly used effectively in the past. However, any offer must be evaluated on its own merit especially according to how well crafted it is to your specific needs. Free Minecraft server hosting offers need to be bundled with such extras as full FTP access, RAID storage protection as well as guarantees on uptime.
