Your players are here. We keep the server running.
Game server hosting and the infrastructure around your community: the machine, the protection in front of it, the website your players land on, and people who know game servers when you need a hand.
Your players are here.Your community is growing.We keep it running.
A server sized for your players.
Every game is different, so we size each server to the game and the peak you expect, then put protection, backups and a private admin side around it.
Sized to your peak
Tell us the game, the map or world size and how many players you expect on your busiest night. We recommend the CPU, memory and bandwidth before you pay.
Protection in front of the game
Network-level filtering for attack traffic, so a flood aimed at your server doesn’t take your community offline.
Worlds and databases backed up
Scheduled backups of game data and databases, so a bad update or a broken event can be rolled back.
A private admin side
Admin panels, consoles and databases kept off the public internet, reachable only by the people you choose.
Site, forum and downloads alongside
Your community website, registration pages and client downloads run on HostingWC hosting in the same account.
People who know game servers
Questions about setup, lag or players dropping go to people who work with servers and networks every day.
Communities we already help.
If your game isn’t listed, ask. Most server software runs on the same foundations.
Game names are trademarks of their owners and are used only to describe the communities we help. HostingWC isn’t affiliated with or endorsed by any game publisher. You need the right to run the game software and content on your server; we don’t help with software that breaks a publisher’s rights or terms.
From first boot to launch night.
We help you through each stage of running the server. You stay in control of the game; we help with the machine, the network and the plan.
- 01 · Plan
Choose the server
How much CPU, memory and bandwidth your player count needs, and which operating system to use.
- 02 · Set up
Lay it out right
Files, database and backups organised so updates and restores are routine, not risky.
- 03 · Protect
Close the doors
Firewall basics, a private admin side, and attack protection options in front of the game.
- 04 · Launch
Ready for the rush
A readiness check before launch and wipe days, so you know what to watch and what to do if it gets busy.
- 05 · Run
Keep it steady
What to check first when players start dropping, and how to keep the server healthy week after week.
Everything your players touch.
The server is only half of a community. The rest is where players sign up, download, read news and talk to each other, and it should be just as fast.
