Ever wanted to host a Minecraft server? Well for this guide requires some $money$ in order to run a successful Minecraft server with atleast 20 players or more!

Step 1: Rent a dedicated server / VPS(Virtual Private Server) - A Dedicated or VPS is a computer running at a data center with the right technology to run and host a Minecraft server without any lag and with comfort.

Step 2: Once you have your dedicated computer ready, you can connect to it through Remote Desktop which allows you to view the virtual computer desktop and have full control just like your personal PC!

Step 3: Upload all your Minecraft server files/folder to a file uploading website.

Step 4: Copy the download link to all your files, go to the Dedicated server and paste the link in the browser and download your uploaded files.
