So, I have a website, bennetthobbs.com. Would it be possible to, say, go into my FTP manager (FileZilla), make a folder within that directory called "server", put all the necessary files into it, and have people be able to connect to my server by going to server.bennetthobbs.com? If so, how would I do this using Craftbukkit, with at least 50 slots? I use byethost, if that helps. I would need Hunger Games, spleef, Skyblock, warps, and multiworld. How would I go about doing this, if it's possible? What files would I need and how would I get them? Thanks in advance, Alex

Google brings you no results because you don't know how to phrase your questions correctly.
It's more of not many people really try to run a minecraft server on a web host, they're called web hosts for a reason, hosting websites. You are correct though, there are some forum threads out there discussing about the same thing, but needs more of a specific-ish search to find.
Hosting minecraft servers require a lot more resources than websites, if you have a sufficient amount of resources to actually run a minecraft server as well as SSH access, you can probably run one, provided that your web host doesn't terminate your account from using too much resources. :p
I'd say it's not worth the hassle using a web host for minecraft servers or finding a free hosting service, find a paid host that provides minecraft hosting or VPS hosting.

Read what I said above? I already answered your question.
..when I said "read the above posts", I was saying to read my post that says google brings no results.
I wasn't even talking to you, I was talking to Castle. (or whatever it says)

A free webhost does not have the resources or ability to host a minecraft server up to your standards. You will need to find a server host specifically for minecraft, or find a VPS/dedicated host.
