A VPS can be good thing to run minecraft and or any other servers on but you need a little know how with Linux or windows and what packages you need and it can take a rather long time to set up, i know this as i have done it as well. But this host everything is there and there's no need to worry about that stuff, also as soon as the payment goes through it is instantly set up for you only thing you need to do is ether select the plugins you want from the plugins menu or upload your own right from your servers panel.
