Network-level filtering drops attack traffic before it reaches your server, so raids happen in-game only.

Hey Jonas! Take a backup first, then pick Fabric in the panel and restart. Plugins won't carry over, so grab Fabric mods instead. Happy to walk you through it.

More reasons to host Minecraft with us
Host a Minecraft server for your friends
Running Minecraft from your own PC means port forwarding, a machine left on around the clock, and a world nobody can visit while you're offline. A hosted server avoids all of that. It runs in a data centre 24/7, so your friends can keep building whether you're online or not. Keep it private with the whitelist, and set the rules that shape your world in server.properties: game mode, difficulty, world seed and more. When you're ready for new players, open the server up without moving a single file.
Set up in minutes
Your server deploys automatically after checkout, and your panel login arrives by email.
Private first, public when ready
Start with a whitelist for your friends, then turn it off when you want new players to join.
What is Minecraft server hosting?
Minecraft server hosting means renting a server in a data centre that runs the Minecraft server software for you. Instead of joining someone else's server, you get your own world with full control of its settings: server software and version, game rules, operators, plugins and mods. The server stays online 24/7 whether or not anyone is playing, and you manage it from a web control panel with a live console, file manager, backups and schedules. Every ServersNow plan includes unlimited player slots, so you choose a plan by RAM rather than by headcount.
No slot limits
Every plan includes unlimited player slots. Pick RAM for your world size, plugins and mods.
Vanilla, plugins or mods
Run vanilla Minecraft, or switch to Paper, Forge or Fabric whenever you like.
Plugins and modpacks made simple
Paper runs Bukkit and Spigot plugins such as EssentialsX, LuckPerms and WorldEdit, while Forge and Fabric load mods and modpacks. On ServersNow you choose your server software in the panel, then upload plugin or mod files with the built-in file manager. Most plugins and mods write their settings to config files, which you can open and edit in the browser without an FTP client. Restart the server to apply your changes, or restart on a schedule. Take a backup first and you can roll back if an update misbehaves.
Any plugin or mod
Upload any plugin or mod built for your server software and version, and configure it to suit your world.
Backups before every change
Create a backup from the panel before updating, and restore it if something breaks.
