I am looking for a Minecraft server hosting company to sponsor a server for me. My vision for this server is for it to be as big or bigger than The Hive, or Mineplex. I am going to try my hardest to achieve this goal, and I will try to find minigame and plugin developers, staff, and try to make it addictive, and fun! What I believe that a good Network of this size would need is 24 GB in total of Minecraft servers. A 4 GB lobby, and ten 2 gb servers for minigames. The server would need to have Ddos protection and unlimited bandwidth as well. The hosting company will get 35% of the donations, and if the hosting company offers me more ram when I need it, I can raise that percentage. That could mean a LOT of money for that hosting company, as well as publicity. I will advertise the company that hosts my server network, in the server, and if my network makes a forums, on the forums. I hope that from this request you can see that I am both professional and passionate about this server network.
I have a plan for this Network and I am not just jumping into this. I am going to try to get a head Admin, Admins, a head Moderator, Moderators, plugin and minigame developers, helpers, and builders. If I cannot get what staff, builders, and developers that I need, I will not ask you to still sponsor this network. I would be honored if a hosting company would sponsor this awesome idea for a network. I plan on making my minigames unique, and fun! I do not want them to be the same as other servers, I want it to have paintball, a unique hunger games, parkour spleef, kit PVP with a twist, an archer minigame, a horse racing minigame, and a fun tag game! I think that all of these minigame ideas are unique and will make the players want to play again and again.
I will try my best to find YouTubers to advertise this network, as well as a graphic designer to make the logo and banner for this network. I want this network to be called The Swarm. I plan on making different donation ranks, one of them at $5, another at $10, a $20 dollar one, a $30 dollar one, and a $50 one. In these ranks I plan on including prefixes, colored names, a lot of the currency that the network would use, such as coins, and for the donors who bought the $50 rank, the ability to join any game that is still in the lobby. I plan on making the network so that you can get different kits and pets with coins. This is because of Minecraft's EULA changes. It is not a pay to win server, but the top 3 players in a game will be given coins after the minigame ends. The people who want a new pet or a new kit in less time, can donate for a kit that contains coins, and other perks.
I want to do this because I want this idea for a big network to become a reality. With a sponsorship from a hosting company, and if all goes well, I can make this a great server. Skype is a great way for myself and for the hosting company to communicate. If you are interested in offering a sponsorship, you can post bellow, or pm me. I will give my skype to the hosting company after they say that they will offer me a sponsorship. I am guessing that the server would have 80 player slots in the lobby, and 24 in each of the 2 GB servers. I would need the server hosting company to know how to install bungee cord. I might be able to negotiate on the ram, but the percentage of the donations that you would get would be less if you offer me less ram. You would need to have a paypal account, through which the percentage of the donations would be payed. Thank you for your time and patience. I hope to do business with you.
Sorry to rain on your paradise but you would have to do a lot of proving to any provider for them to dedicate you nearly a full 32GB dedicated server because of them costing an excessive of generally $100+ for a good one. I would leave things like proof of a community of needing this much resources and also an estimated time frame you will need to get launched.

It's nice to see that you have good confidence, but.. they need proof in order to better predict how this would turn out for them. If you don't have an existing community to show here, then I suggest you go out and create one or request a much smaller allocation and form one from there. Another way is if you have much of the contents prepared then that could help you win a sponsorship your looking for. Hosting companies will more likely go with things like this because it's show them that you really put in drive into this so it's displays that you won't let anything get in your way of making this happens.
Yes get as prepared as you can with your planning and everything else you need then request for those servers when the last things you need to do is load up the contents on them and fire them up.
You'll need to throw thousands at just advertising and developers for this server, saving $100 on hosting isn't going to magically pay for everything else.
Would like to tell you that if you are trying to get a server as big as the hive or hypixel, there is absolutely no way any host will sponsor you especially for 15GB which you say "will be good too". Just to throw some numbers at you, a 15GB server for $5 per GB which is quite inexpensive is $75 a month. Why should a host give you 15GB for free without proof of a concept and an already existing player base. If you want to start small like i suggest you do, i can give you a deal for $4/gb each month for as large of a server as you can afford. Experienced developers and builders will cost you more than the server. From owning a server myself i have learned everything you try to do is 10x harder. Finding a dev that isnt going to scam you is a hard battle. Be aware of the scammers, however to start your dream you need a host. I hope you chose us as it
Update _ I am currently testing a developer for my server! I will let you guys know if it works out!
Is the developer an actual developer, or is he just one of those random people (usually on PlanetMinecraft) that call themselves developers because they can install Bukkit plugins...?
No he actually codes java! He gave me a sample, a prefix plugin. I ran it through some security scans to be safe, and it looks legit. I will test it tomorrow probably!

Nice! Though I would actually decompile it and check it out to be safe, security scans are usually all bogus junkware, even the online ones that don't require you to download anything.
As I said, I would decompile it and actually look at the code.
(I mean, he probably hasn't put something malicious in it, but if he did he could really do some major damage, to the extent of putting you into jail, leaking personal files and passwords, etc)

I looked through the files and they look legit! I have some experience installing mods and such, so I know somewhat how a tipical mod looks like.

Okay then, but of course I would still recommend using something like JD-GUI to get a rough idea of what the codes doing and look for anything that could look questionable.

No problem, it's what we are here for.
