VPS/Dedicated Server Hosting
I have recently been looking into Hosting companies, I know how to use Ubuntu linux 14.04. Anyone know any hosting companies that are decent at running multiple gmod servers from either a powerful VPS or a Dedicated server. I looked and GMC and NFO, but I want to try to find other companies. Post some companies in the comments (Affiliate/Referral links are welcomed).
EU/Canada - Crident (they don't have VPS's afaik rn) US - NFO
If you're looking to be like the bigger communities then go to OVH and get the MC-64-OC
For a VPS, use ExtraVM: https://extravm.com/ For a Dedi: use either OVH or SoYouStart http://ovh.com/ https://www.soyoustart.com/us/game-servers/
I don't know if you're still searching for a provider or not. This is literally the industry I've been working in for the past 10 years. NFO and GMC are both primarily game server providers and they're a lot smaller than your average reputable dedicated server provider. OVH is huge, but they're a budget provider. If you want high quality hardware and the best combination of network providers here are a few top end providers that are known to run many customers who use them for game servers (including GSPs themselves)...
SteadFast.net (Chicago) GigeNet.com (Chicago) LimeStoneNetworks.com (Dallas)
and ColoCrossing.com used to own Velocity Servers a former reputable Game Server Provider. They're also pretty big now, much bigger than probably ever GSP out there with the exception of gameservers.com also owning Choopa, another dedicated server provider. ColoCrossing offers multiple locations. They own 1 data center I believe in Buffalo, NY and the rest of their locations they just have private cages rented out.
Best of luck with your search :)
Edited Another thing to add. GMC uses OVH for their dedicated server rentals, and they create and rent out game servers from those dedicated servers :). They don't hide that though, so props to them. It's directly on their website, but I found out this information by running a whois lookup in ARIN's database on their IP.
I know this thread is a bit dead, but I saw you were still looking through your recent thread, so, I'll offer up who I think. It depends on what type of server you want to run as some companies offer better hosting packages, or deals for things like DarkRP, or instead Deathrun/Jailbreak. If you're looking to host multiple servers, I'd also suggest OVH. However, if you're looking to run just one server that will need a powerful dedicated server, you could use HexaneNetworks. If you're looking for managed game servers with cPanel, etc, then I'd also suggest either Crident, or Hexane again. https://www.hexanenetworks.com/ https://crident.com/ https://www.ovh.co.uk/

You were literally told to stop creating posts as you made one some months ago about hosting and you ignored that and make another.
Starting to get pathetic a number of people making threads just so they can get their mates to post their shoddy services (wouldn't even call them companies). These posts are literally just bump threads and you can EASILY go looking through previous posts for what you need.
This is your third post, either you've got Alzheimers or you're doing it to be an idiot.
