In this article, we’ll explain how to set up your own dedicated server. We’ll also share some of the most important things to look out for when it comes to server hosting providers.

What is a Dedicated Core Keeper Server?

A dedicated server is a server that is completely yours. They allow you to play the game as you choose, with the ability to unite you with other players to enhance your experience. You can tweak the server to your own liking, meaning that the limits of the game are truly in your hands.

In the vast sandbox of Core Keeper, a dedicated server is crucial to expanding your experience to its maximum.

How to Choose the Best Hosting Solution for You

Choosing the right Core Keeper server hosting is crucial. Here are some key considerations to make when choosing the perfect hosting provider: 

Performance

Depending on the hardware and location, different providers offer different levels of performance. 

It is generally better to connect to a server closer to you since a server further away has lower performance. In addition, a service with more hardware power (RAM, CPU, etc.) will generally perform better.

With Hostari's high-performance servers, you have superior connectivity everywhere you want to go with exceptional ping across all of the USA & Canada. 

Additionally, our servers have a minimum specification of 128GB RAM and i9 9900K processors. Travelling around the Core has never been so smooth and responsive!

You and your friends should also be able to play whenever it is convenient to do so, especially since the main reason for Core Keeper’s dedicated servers existing is so friends can access their joint games without the need of the owner to be playing. Excellent uptime is a sign of a competent provider. 

User Experience

Easy-to-use interfaces and exceptional support elevate hosting providers. A good customer support team can help guide you through any difficulties, and make sure that your server is running as best it can.

An easy-to-use control panel makes it easy to set up and run the server, so you can spend more time playing instead of setting it up.

Hostari offers superb 24/7 support, so you can always get help setting up your server. Additionally, Hostari's control panel simplifies the process, requiring no command line knowledge.

Pricing

A good hosting provider should offer good value. It’s best to find a hosting provider that is upfront about their pricing and won’t surprise you with hidden fees or charges. 

Long-term contracts from providers are usually a bad deal, locking you into contracts that may be difficult to break. 

Look for a provider like Hostari that lets you pay monthly without committing long-term. By doing so, your plan will be flexible and tailored to your needs.

You can try Hostari's service for free for 24 hours. Then, once you decide whether we're a perfect match, you can opt to move to one of our services. Until then, no fees, no card required, and your friends can join you in your journey too!
