At ExpHost, we’ve spent the last year building what many call the UK’s fastest and most affordable Minecraft server platform. But we know our community wants more, not just great Minecraft hosting, but powerful, simple, and affordable infrastructure for everything else they run.
That’s why today, we’re excited to introduce Project Element, our brand-new VPS, VDS and Dedicated platform designed from the ground up for developers, studios, event runners, and anyone who’s tired of overpriced, confusing VPS options.
What is Project Element?
Project Element isn’t just another VPS platform. It’s built on the same principles that made our Minecraft hosting fast, smooth, and affordable. We’ve learned a lot from hosting thousands of players during massive events, and those lessons have shaped every part of this new platform.
Powerful Hardware at Your Fingertips
Just like our Minecraft servers, Project Element runs on the latest AMD Ryzen CPUs:
- Basic plans come with the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X, a huge upgrade that delivers blazing performance.
- Pro plans feature the brand new Ryzen 9 9950X, AMD’s latest flagship CPU, offering even more power for heavy workloads.
These processors have helped make our Minecraft hosting up to 70% more cost effective than the nearest competitor. Now that power is available for everything you want to run, and at prices that beat most other hosts by a wide margin.
Simple, Transparent Options
We believe hosting should be easy to understand. That’s why we offer just two clear tiers with no confusing add-ons or hidden fees:
- Customizable vCores, RAM, and storage so you only pay for what you need.
- Choose your DDoS protection level to fit your risk profile.
- Every server comes with one IPv4 address included, no extra cost.
- Pick your operating system: Linux, Windows, or any OS you want.
- Offsite backups twice a day, just like our Minecraft servers.
VPS and VDS: Shared and Dedicated Options
Whether you want shared resources or guaranteed dedicated hardware, we’ve got you covered:
- VPS plans offer flexible, shared resources ideal for smaller projects or those just getting started.
- VDS plans provide dedicated resources with no overselling, exactly what you pay for, always available.
Support You Can Count On
We don’t just give you great hardware and software, we back it up with real human support:
- Expect fast, expert answers in under five minutes.
- Get developer help included at no extra charge.
- Enjoy the same active monitoring and management that keeps massive Minecraft events like Destiny Games running smoothly.
Why We Built Project Element
Minecraft hosting taught us an important lesson: when hosting improves, the whole community benefits.
- Faster development servers mean quicker updates to plugins and mods.
- Affordable test servers mean more creators can build and share their projects.
- Reliable backend servers lead to cleaner launches and less stress on release day.
- And fast, human support makes hosting simpler and more enjoyable.
Project Element isn’t just a product, it’s a platform built for the people who needed better hosting all along.
What’s Next?
Project Element is coming soon, with an expected launch as early as September 2025. We’ll reveal full pricing, plans, and features at our summer keynote.
This is only the beginning, we’re excited to build the future of infrastructure at ExpHost with you.
Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you for being part of our community.
