FAQ
Are you DDoS protected?
Our network in Arizona is DDoS protected. In VA and UK, we have mitigation techniques against servers which are attacked to prevent spillage affecting other customers.
What is the server setup time?
Instant after payment, up to 5 minutes at the most.
What kind of hardware/network do you run?
Typical hardware consists of two Intel Xeon 6-core processors (12+ cores total) or better, at least 64GB RAM, SSD drives and at least 1Gbit of network. Our UK servers are connected to an ultra-fast 10gbit port.
What are your supported payment methods?
OneBip (text message mobile payments), PayPal (credit card, debit card, PayPal balance, bank account) and Western Union.
How long have you been in operation?
Game hosting services since 2009, and since 2010 off our custom panel @ volt-host.com. Our company has been operational and active in the technology industry since October 2004. We have hosted over 9,000 game servers and manage over 1,000 active clients every month.
What kind of support can I expect?
Our ethic is simple - post solutions, not excuses. This carries over into all of our support departments. Enter in, superhero support. Our average response times vary from 1 - 2 hours, usually.
What's the details on your free trials?
We give you a no obligation free 7 day trial of our services. If you like it - renew it, if you don't, just walk away - no questions asked (although we do love feedback of any type).
What kind of disk drives do you guys use? Will my world lag?
All of our servers run on high performance SSD disk arrays to ensure optimal performance for our customers.
How much disk space am I allowed to use?
As much as you need for your game server, within reason (use common sense). Just make sure that you're not uploading files that aren't relevant to your game server, such as video files, backups of your computer hard drive, etc - as this is not allowed (as per our terms of service).
Am I allowed to store backups on my server?
Yes! We have backup features in our control panel and encourage you to use backup plugins! We allocate lots of disk space to ensure that you can do this with ease. We're also working on offsite backups free for all of our users =)
Which operating systems do you run on your servers?
We run CentOS 6 on all of our servers.
What is the uptime like on your servers?
Both of our datacenters do provide us with a 100% uptime SLA guarantee. Right now our running average for uptime on Pingdom is around 99.99%.
Free web hosting
You can setup the free web hosting via the game server control panel. This is the same service and quality web hosting that we offer on paid shared accounts.
I have more questions, what do I do?
Ask away here or open a support ticket with us!
Wow :ohmy.gif: I'm still in shock. Would never think of a good hosting company finally joining the forums! :biggrin.gif:
I've been using Volt-Host for over 1 year now, splendid support and everything else is just awesome! I recommend everyone to go there and just have a look at least. :smile.gif:
What's also good about having an own gameserver is the included web hosting (free), as most people running a server (either one) normally wants to have a website meant for it too.
I can't describe how good Volt-Host has become during the last 2 years, and I can't wait to see what's next! :biggrin.gif:
If anyone got questions about how I think their service is, go ahead and ask. I give them 10/10 easily without hesitating. :wink.gif:

Volt-Host, good job. +1
:sleep.gif:
Was thinking about going with this host- but then I saw the above- it's clearly a fake account and is just so fake..(They clearly don't have any REAL testimonials)
I ordered my MineCraft server almoust a month ago (right when they started hosting them). And I can only say one thing about it, f*cking great! Reasonable prices, extremly good uptime, very fast (and good!) support and they care about their users (unlike most hosts who only care about making a sale). Just contact them with your request and they'll see what they can do about it in no matter of a time. :smile.gif: I must say, their control panel is one hell of a sexy beast!
I also love how they implented a donator system so I can receive donations towards my server! :biggrin.gif:
I haven't had one single problem with this host that haven't been solved in a few hours. So all I can say is: I reccomend Volt-Host if you're looking for one of the better hosts out there!

Hey Alex, it's Dave from UltraStunting! :biggrin.gif:
And to the guy saying this was a fake account, check out the account named Kidel. I've forgot my emails password so can't reset the password, that's why I made this one instead. :tongue.gif:

We can do a managed file transfer for you, just contact our support team and we'll see what kind of a transfer will best suit your current hosting plan :-)
Our primary UK server is full at this time however we're working on getting that server upgraded in terms of CPU and memory. We're accepting any orders on our other UK server (smaller ones) via a support ticket request at this time.
We just got our new server in Arizona online, right now there's around 9GB of space left on there for anyone interested :-)
What's the details on your free trials?We give you a no obligation free 7 day trial of our services. If you like it - renew it, if you don't, just walk away - no questions asked (although we do love feedback of any type).
Okay, now do I do that via your website?
Also, so I only have to pay $6 per month or is that just for the first month?
Yes, simply register and open a support ticket in your control panel under the "Support" tab :-)
It's a recurring discount, it'll be $6 per month for the lifetime of your server. If you upgrade the server from the control panel in the future, for example to 1GB, it will only cost $12 as well - and not $20.
Our AZ location still has a little bit of space left for a few more Minecraft servers if anyone's interested. Open a ticket up to get a trial setup for free :-)
If anyone had downtime last night that would be due to our web server move, it's now been upgraded and moved to a new facility in Montreal (and as a result the website and control panel should load alot faster now).
Do your servers get dedicated ips with the default mine craft server port?
They're allocated automatically by the system, sometimes there isn't a default port available. Right now they're all full on that box however we've just ordered out an extra allocation, it should be setup within 24 hours (if you want a default port just open a support ticket) :-)
Update: We have another allocation ready on that server, you should be getting dedicated IP's on any new orders
