I'm pretty sure that most people would like a cheap, and good server host, BUT there's only a few out there, dedicated servers, often cost around 3$ dollars too 80$ A month, thats the prize for the packages and no the hosts, but wich package should YOU choose? let's say, You often play's minecraft with a few friends, but you would the server to run 24/7, but you won't start the server everytime someones would like too play. Then in my opinion i would not pay more than 9$ even if i had a bit of plugins, for 9 dollars you should be able to get atleast 500mb ram, wich is enough for a bukkit server with a few friends. But let's say, You have big plans, and would like to run a big server with more than 40 players, and a bunch of plugins, you might have an computer that can be running as a server 24/7, but is it simply not powerful enough, our your bandwith is not strong enough. Then of course the payouts will be way more expensive, but i would not pay more than 70$ for 4gb ram, wich should meet your requirements, including much of plugins.

When you are choosing a host, the prize is not the only thing that comes in mind, you would like too find host, with an good processor, RAM, and Bandwith, many "popular" hosts does not provide that even when they say "#1 Server" "Super Powerful server" do not let shouts like these carry you away, remember to read EVERYTHING about your host's machines.

You may also like to discover wich features, the hosts got, like MySQL, or wich control panel you will be able to use, i personal thinks that Multicraft is simply the best, it is easy, and supports most of my needs. remember to select an host with an good support, because you might probably discover some issues, so make sure to find some nice support!
