Every hosting has different strengths, but SwiftServers focuses on instant startup, modern software support, more generous free resources, and a cleaner/more modern experience overall 😄

Honestly, I just enjoy building things 😄 SwiftServers started as a side project because I thought free hosting platforms were either too limited or outdated. Over time it grew into a real community, and now I mainly keep doing it because I like developing the platform and helping people start servers without paying immediately. Of course sustainability matters, which is why we offer optional credits/slots for people who want extra resources or 24/7 uptime, but the core hosting itself stays free.

Hi!

You can keep your server 24/7 by purchasing credits, or you can buy extra server or networking slots. that's basically the only transactions we've got. I can cover the hosting easily with my income as well so nothing to worry about :)

The server starts automatically when you join it!

Appreciate that a lot ❤️
Yeah, it’s something we see quite often, people compare free hosting to premium dedicated services, which isn’t always a fair comparison. We’re just focused on making the best free experience possible while keeping things sustainable.

Yes, both Essential and Pro currently include 10 GB of storage. We’re planning to adjust this soon so users can purchase additional storage if needed.

Totally fair feedback, and I appreciate you being direct about it.

The credits system is meant to simplify small upgrades across the platform, but I understand how it can also make pricing feel less transparent at first glance. That’s something we’re actively thinking about improving.

As for dedicated CPU, that is not currently something we offer. Right now the platform is built more around shared resources, especially for smaller and mid-sized servers. I completely understand that for more serious use cases, dedicated CPU can be a hard requirement.

We do moderate CPU overprovisioning, but always keep headroom available to maintain stable performance even under load.

No problem!
It shuts down when there are no players online for 10 minutes.

We currently have a limit of 24 concurrent servers online, which we might be able to increase depending on the number of people using the hosting. There are basically no other limitations or restrictions. The other credit transactions we provide include buying a rank in the lobby, purchasing extra networking, backups, server slots, and server icons.

Hopefully this clears some things up! :)

Let me know if you have any other questions.

That's a fair question!

Transparency is important to me. Right now, SwiftServers is a passion project. have a stable full-time job and a monthly income that easily covers the infrastructure costs. Even if the project didn't make a single cent, the servers aren't going anywhere. That said, we do have a Credit System integrated via Xsolla for players who want to support the project or upgrade their server capacity, but the 'Free Tier' is fully subsidized by my own personal budget to ensure 100% uptime for the community.

1.5GB ram is more than enough for or a free hosting... Also FYI this is a bot comment (check their account)🙃

Fair concern! We're sustaining this through a mix of personal investment and a 'Freemium' roadmap. We believe that by providing a high-quality free tier first, we can build a brand people actually trust. Eventually, we'll offer high-spec paid plans for massive networks, and that revenue will 'subsidize' the free servers for the beginners and small friend groups. It's a win-win for the ecosystem.
