I am looking for counsel regarding how to set up a hosted server for my children and their friends to play on. I have talked with the other parents and it is my privilege to set up this new server. We want the server to be private so that only authorized parents and children will be playing together. We are interested in playing vanilla Minecraft. I will be the one controlling everything so I would prefer the easiest hassle free option. One parent has requested a higher ore percentage in the world if this is possible? We will probably only need five to ten slots for players in the beginning, but I would like the ability to grow to about twenty players active at once in the future. The server must be lag free and work without constant attention from me. Also I have offered to pay for this server so it needs to be very affordable! I appreciate your help.

Hello, BlevCraft!
Since you obviously have a local, nearby target for this server, where in the world are you located, for least lag?
I live in the USA. Players are in South Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia. Thanks for asking the question. I did not realize our location would make a difference, but after thinking about it I can see why that does matter.

You can always add more Memory, 2GB ($4.98/mo) would be about the maximum you'd need for a server like this, even with 25 or so players!
About your other question regarding ores, this would most likely require a somewhat complex terrain generator which might be difficult to setup, especially if you're new to the whole server thing! You could probably get someone to help but honestly It's probably too much hassle to actually try and work with, as It relies on other things such as Bukkit - Not going to go into this, so I don't start confusing the both of us! :-)
For only allowing certain players, you can enable the Whitelist function that is built into the Vanilla Minecraft Server.
We are Scalability Servers LLC a registered company from the USA. We can offer you our Intermediate plan, which includes 2048MBs of RAM. The Price is Only $8.99/month.

Hi there BlevCraft! I'm Colby from KryptonHosting, I would love to set you up with a server for 1-Month free of charge! After the initial one month you would of course then have to pay. I believe you should atleast get to try out our service for a while and see if we are what you like before buying. The reason I am setting you up with a server for the initial month is that you are the first to be hosting a server for a cause I can support rather than some random sponsorship request; and I realize you are not asking for a free server I could only allow the free server to be up to 1024Mb of RAM. Running a Vanilla server should be great on that amount of RAM. I will set-up auto-scheduled restarts for you to clear RAM ensuring that your server never overloads and if you want extra ore generation I would be happy to help you research that. We also have a 1-Click plugin installer in our control panel allowing you to easily install new and fun plugins for your server, plugins would allow your children all kinds of fun in Minecraft. On top of everything I would be happy to setup a sub-domain, such as "blevcraft.kryptonhosting.com" allowing your friends and the children easy access to the server. If you would rather purchase a server, we are priced at $4/gb; and we are running a 50% initial payment coupon code "WINTERMADNESS". Again, the reason I am wanting to help out is for my pure love of Minecraft. I know how fun it can be, and you are being an outstanding parent doing what you are doing. Also, slots are unlimited; you may set them to whatever you prefer in the control panel (Note: Setting player slots is disabled for the "demo" account).
Our Features:
Intel Xeon E5 1620v2 CPU @ 3.7+ Ghz
Unlimited hard drive space
SSD Powered
Multicraft (Customized)
1-Click Plugin & Modpack Installer
DDR3 ECC RAM @ 1600mhz
Gb/s Up-Link
480Gb/s DDOS Mitigation
Free MYSQL Database
Unlimited Slots
Full FTP & Console Access
12 Hour Money Back
Our server is located right above NewYork, I saw you were concerned about the location as you should be. I live in Atlanta, and I get 60ms of ping. Due to our servers packing a Gb/s up-link, latency is extremely low in many locations. Again I'm offering it for free, so why not give it a shot ?
As for more ores, I have found this. Not sure if it will work with 1.8, but again I am happy to help you find what you need.
We constantly update to have the latest jars: Vanilla, Craftbukkit, Spigot, Bungee etc.
TWG currently has 6 new European and 24 new North American Servers. We switched out all of our MG-128 to SP-128 servers and reduced the number of customers per server due to the lower core count. Which does give is faster CPUs. (Props to BensDaMan for pointing that out to us.)
All of our Pro-SSD server prices are based upon $2.49 US / € 2.19 EUR / £ 1.61 GBP per Gigabyte of RAM with discounts on Quarterly, Semi-Annual, and Annual pricing.
Know that since 2011 we have been a gaming community who supports other gaming communities and operate as a not-for-profit company. All of our servers are in real Data Centers positioned to provide the best support between Europe and North America.
We allow you full access to upload and download Minecraft jars, worlds, plugins etc. For a free FTP program. We recommend FileZilla, with NotePad++ configured as its dedicated view and editor. If you need assistance setting this up, please feel free to ask us to walk you through the configuration.
We also allow our customers to set their own player slot configuration. Just submit a Customer Support Ticket asking that your customer slots be unlocked. This will give you the option to set the available number of slots required for your application needs.
Reinforce your infrastructure: It's not a question of knowing if you need anti-DDoS protection but rather when you will first be the victim of an attack. Through OVH we are committed to protecting your project 24/7 against any type of DDoS attack, regardless of duration or size.
Please check our web site for our 7 day no questions money back guarantee. True World Gaming servers are supported by a state of the art OVH 3+ Tbps Network Firewall 3+Tbps Anti-DDoS Professional infrastructure. We provide full Service Level Agreements and Quality of Service Guarantees at no additional cost.
We also offer a free 30 slot Mumble server, 30 Days of new BuyCraft Premium accounts and 45 days of new Premium Enjin Web accounts, plus a free cPanel Linux Web Host.

Hello again,
That is fully understandable, as said before, I'd recommend https://www.trueworldgaming.com/
For between 10 and 15 players, something like this should work very well ($2.49/mo) - https://www.trueworldgaming.com/billing/cart.php?a=confproduct&i=2
You can always add more Memory, 2GB ($4.98/mo) would be about the maximum you'd need for a server like this, even with 25 or so players!
