I didn't even know that was your company. I just thought it was a sponsor lol I rented a server about 9 months ago and I can say that it worked out pretty fluently. We were 12 people playing with about 40 mods and it didn't even lag ONCE. 10/10 would recommend

[@Shulkercraft]

haha nice, thanks a ton for the feedback!

[@stayedleopard4]

Yeah hands down best servers out there. My friends and I have tried so many servers, if they’re smooth they’re usually crazy expensive and if they’re cheap they’re really bad with lag. Wisehost is the best of both worlds, you can tell they care a lot about their community which I appreciate

Started a server on wise, no lag at all, support team has been great, they worked on a bug on my server for multiple days till it was fixed. Much better than any other host i have tried, would recommend

[@phil6844]

Been a fan of you guys for years now. Your farm tutorials helped me find the fun in Minecraft again. Glad you guys have a solid plan because Minecraft KZbin seems like it’s always a temporary thing. Best wishes to you all and good luck on your business!

[@bllllllllackbirdie]

thank god for non-ai support. robot support is so trash, it never helps. your site is so good for addons, i always had trouble setting up mods/datapacks on other hosts.

[@Jari1233.]

I've tested a lot of hosts for a server for me and my mate, a server where we make big redstone projects like you do. Think about things like an automatic storage system+shulkerloaders for every item in the game etc and I've got to say wisehosting servers are the fastest ones we've gotten so far, the projects that used to lagg quite a bit are now actually not impacting the server as much Gratz on the 1 year!

[@Shulkercraft]

Thanks a ton for the feedback. We test our servers heavily (sometimes using our world lol) and it's our priority to make them as smooth as possible

[@ThornyPickled]

Really makes a difference people who actually play the game and experienced hosting servers who actually know what needs to be added and knows how to interact with the mc community hosting a server farm for it. It is a world of difference and actually churns out results.

[@ThornyPickled]

Too many hosting sites I've tried that just didn't work for the scope of my projects of which there was several and constantly demotivated and put a stop in our tracks when it came to our creative side. So many projects that would have benefited from a service built out of the inspiration and experience of like-minded creators.

[@41neve85]

0:11 face reveal in reflection of gold play button!

[@TheOg1223]

Most important question is: Did mark make more money?

[@PetruWind]

Probably yeah, i looked at their page and making aproximate calculations shows that there are 3 plans and the aproximate is 9$ per server with 10.000 costumers wich would be 90.000 dollars taking in mind that for most of the year there were 3 persons and not 12. Even with what they made they can triple the amount of server s they have at the moment and still pay for what it cost for the 1st ones.

[@givepassword]

@@PetruWind They also need to rent servers. They didn't specify, but it's probable that they didn't buy the hardware upfront themselves, so they need to cut out a giant chunk of that to whoever is actually running/maintaining the physical servers.

[@protocol2746]

⁠​⁠They’ve been up since April 2023, so 17 months. Let’s assume in the first 6 months on average they had 4000 customers. Most people will select 4Gb of memory and may choose to add storage should they need it, so let’s average the approximate monthly cost per customer out to be 10 dollars. In the first 6 months their income was around 4000 * 10 * 6 = $240,000 Factor out tax, server prices, expansions and I doubt they profited more than $80,000 over those 6 initial months. Now with 11 months to go and some of the more heavy investments completed (servers etc), with 10,000+ hosted servers we can comfortably assume that on average over the last 11 months they’ve had around 6-7000 monthly customers. Let’s use 6000 to avoid overestimating. Now with more popularity and stability customers are more likely to purchase higher memory servers (including modded servers requiring more storage) leading me to estimate that the average spend per customer per month is somewhere in the region of $20 per month. So total income over the 11 months works out to around 6000 * 11 * 20 = $1,320,000 - not bad. But we’re forgetting employee salaries, dividends, investments, server rent prices, sponsorships etc. 12 employees, 9 full time, for the sake of argument let’s say there was 5 full time employees on average (per wage) since I doubt they hired all 9 at once and it would balance out. I can’t imagine the wages are fantastic for support staff so let’s say 5 employees * 11 months * 8 dollars p/h * 120 hour months = $52,800 employee wages. Server renting per month won’t be cheap, with 8 servers across the globe, at probably well over 5k per month per server comes to 11 * 5000 * 8 = $440,000 Not sure on sponsorships but let’s put that to $10,000 over the course of 11 months - I’ve got no way of working out what deals they have so that could be wildly off but let’s go with it because it’s not a lot. Once those running costs are taken into account they’re left with a cool $817,000. Two of the part time employees are Shulkercraft, but we’ll come back to how much I think they earn from this at the end. One of the full time employees is Mark, who will be earning significantly more than everyone else because he’s running the business. I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that as much as 50% of that figure is taken as salary or dividends and the other half is left in the bank. I reckon Mark would take 50% of the rest, with the two Shulkercrafters taking 25% each. So at current, Could be completely wrong but I reckon Mark earns around $18-20,000 per month Each Shulkercrafter earns around $9-10,000 per month Total income to date is around $1.5m Total profit to date is around $800,000 Not bad at all! I wouldn’t be surprised if the real figures are significantly higher, but that’s my shot at it.

[@protocol2746]

Actually, just had a look at their company registration and Mark holds no shares in Wisehosting and is not officially named CEO at all. The company is split 50/50 with Robin and Lauri having 5k euros in shares each. Seems a bit odd to have a CEO with no shares. It also estimates approximately $40k dollars per month. I reckon I’m overestimating, real sums are closer to $600k profit. Anyway I’m tired and this was really autistic of me.

[@NichtJulienBam]

@@protocol2746 Where did u find the info?

[@pietrop5630]

I’m kind of sorry of saying that, but I don’t really suggest this hosting server after my one month experience. I got the 3 GB option for playing with 3 friends of mine, but many times the server crashes when someone is exploring new terrains, even when we are only two online. This caused us many problems of loosing items we put in chest / gave each others, or even making you die because of the situation you were in (like flying over the void). I think it might be better to just get the realm for the same price, I’ve been using that for many years and it never happened to crash once.. That said, I really wish you guys only the best, I really love this channel and I think you are the best mc creators ❤ Sorry for the bad review

It can be much cheaper to buy enterprise servers with one or two AMD Epyc 9534 64 core or 9754 128 core CPUs and 256-1Tb 4800MHz or 5200MHZ ram and then have multiple minecraft servers run on it with code limits so that a particular program can only use a max of CPU cores/threads and ram. Also enterprise servers have 10Gb network ports built in, remote managing, ECC ram, Up to around a petabyte of hdd storage in a raid. It might only cost(depending on configuration and hosting package) around 312 per server upfront compared to around 450 per server. One of the biggest advantages is power consumption an enterprise CPU server may only consume 1000 watts of power(at max CPU usage) so around 15 watts per minecraft server hosted vs what I think you computers use( Ryzen 7 3800x) using around 126 watts(at max CPU usage) is 126 watts per minecraft server hosted at 11 cents per KWh it is about a 8.4 times cheaper to run long turn.

[@kavenci]

For minecraft this is completely wrong, it’s a heavily single threaded game (apart from folia) which prefers a high clocked cpu for best performance. server cpu’s including the ones you listed wouldn’t perform very well under load even if you give it a million cores.

[@benlandonb7857]

​@@kavenci An AMD Genoa EPYC 9754 can hit 2.25ghz-3.1GHZ compared to 4.5GHz and hosting any hosting server uses mostly the same processes( receiving requests then processing the requests then store the requests finally send the finished requests back. Core/thread count and GHz are not the only things to consider, a 8 core 16 thread CPU with 4.5GHz from 5 years ago could preform about the same as a 6 core 6 thread 3.7GHz from 6 years ago a newer CPU architectures will almost always perform better in all use cases. You are mostly right about PLAYING (most) video games they like high single or some many threads clock speeds but the second biggest factor is the size of the L3 cache is the biggest reasons that the X3D chips do so well(in gaming) is because of a bigger L3 cache. Minecraft hosting is more like web hosting then playing Minecraft. In my testing with amount of thread or speed of thread with and with out 1GB or 10GB net working, having slower storage, ram, networking can have a bigger input delay and other unwanted effects on a Minecraft server. My point is that it can be much cheaper(not a crazy amount faster) in the long term with only some powerful servers then get a bunch of ordinary desktops to run it. If you don't believe me buy an old cheap xeon E5-2660v3 2.6GHz 10-Core and 3200MHz ram and then a time appropriate CPU like a i7 4770k and 3200MHz ram then host 2 of your own servers on them(make sure all variables are accounted for seed, location, case, power supply, ssd, cooler, ram, play the server on the same PC) and check the results(NOT THE FPS that is local performance not server performance). My testing with a 13700k vs a xeon E5-2699v4 the old exon from 2016, the old xeon does better in hosting(web or game Servers environment). Remenber hosing a game sever needs other things than just gaming.
