Support & Community
We don’t do support like everyone else. Every customer who joins our Discord gets a permanent, private ticket, open 24/7 and answered in under 5 minutes, often by the same people who built the platform. No bots, no scripts, no copy-paste replies. We’re not here to maximize profit, we're here to fix what’s broken. When told to downgrade to worse CPUs to cut costs, we stuck with the 7950X. Why? Because performance matters. At ExpHost, you're not just a number. You're part of a hosting platform built by people who actually care.
Real Support, Not Bots
Get fast, personal help from real staff with actual Minecraft hosting experience. Discord tickets stay open permanently, and response times are usually under 5 minutes.
Next Gen Hardware
All our nodes run on a Ryzen 7950x or a 9950x CPU depending on tiers. No old Xeons or budget CPUs. Just raw power built for Minecraft performance.
One Click Mod & Plugin Installs
Add popular modpacks and plugins in one click. No complicated file uploads or manual setup needed.
Full DDoS Protection
All servers are protected by CosmicGuard. Attacks are filtered automatically with no downtime or upgrade needed.
Fair Tiered Pricing
Choose between Standard and Pro tiers. Pay for exactly what you need, better specs cost more, but nothing’s hidden or inflated.
Built by Players, Not Shareholders
We actually care about Minecraft. ExpHost was built for the community, not for shareholders or some exec’s bonus.
