Best vps hosting website for a server?

[ZeoWorks]

**Hello** everyone, I was just wondering; How do you know what is the best way for hosting your EO server (or any other kind of game server) via VPS hosting? and can anyone recommend a good vps hosting website/package?

The thing is, I am planning to make a big MMO game so I need to know how to find out how many players can connect to your server before there is major lag and what is the best way/vps hoster to have as many connections (players playing at once) to the server as possible without as much lag. (Shall we say.. around 500-1000 players) Thank you!

You wont get 500 - 1000 Players never ;-)

But if you want to try it good luck ^^

I host Servers for free Lagless it just lagg if you coded your stuff wrong but then its client side lagg ;-)

Free -> With an Adversing message every Hour

Payd -> 5Eur / Month

At both options is 24/7 and FTP

At Payd will i help you Programming, game logic tipps, mapping e.c.t.

Edit–-

If you dont get it how you would like it.

I Search an admin for the English Server of my game

Well, currently I get around 9,000 website views a day so I'm sure a few of them would be willing to atleast try the game… So it could add up to around 500-1000\. 

Could someone please answer my question?

Despite your website views, you will not get 500-1000 players.

However, I've used CorgiTech for a windows VPS before and have nothing to complain about.

I would recommend the mystic package that is what I use but I signed up with them a long time ago so mine is only 7 bucks per month. But only one server will not support that big user base, you can try but you will most likely need several. Try out small if there is a need for expansion they make it really easy to upgrade.

There is a couple tricks you have to use to get it working on server 08 but you can get a Linux version also. There is a tutorial around here on how to set it up on Linux i believe. If you do decide to go with windows and run into trouble let me know ill help you with the setup.

Ah.. so realistically, the server will not be able to handle 500-1000 players at once never mind actually reaching that amount of players? Thank you for your recommendation too Slinky, I'll certinly look into it.

I get 12-17K a day (fluctuates quite erratically). Still got 85 members.

Go figure.

Ah, that's unlucky.  I got 1,128 members since I released the website at the start of the year. >.< Mainly because of my "Slendytubbies" game project which got youtubes interest (Over 7,400 gameplay videos). I guess the smallest and craziest things get the most traffic these days. Though you should add advertisements onto your website if your getting that many views a day, it'll get you extra money in your back pocket.

Slinky provided a pretty good link. Prices look pretty low compared to others I've seen, but what throws me off a little is the fact that they don't list the number of processor cores; everything else looks good.

You must be so happy about taking a saturated concept and adding teletubbies to it.

Well I was a little flattered when I seen views draw in for such a bizarre project yes. At least I know it was worth it… even know it was insane.
