A Minecraft server represents your very own instance of Minecraft that you control and can invite your friends and community to play. If you wanted, you could even set up your own private Minecraft server on your own PC. However, there would be several difficulties and potential issues to overcome in doing so, like: having a thorough understanding of your network IPs and firewall settings, providing 24/7 access to the game server for friends to access, having enough reliable bandwidth to support it, etc.
With Minecraft Server Hosting, you get to leave the difficult parts of running a game server to the pros while you can focus on customizing and enjoying your game instance.

It comes with your own game panel that lets you choose your preferred version of Minecraft and server types, upload and install plugins and mods, and launch your new Minecraft server for you and your friends in just a matter of minutes.
