Dear valued customers,
As a leading green hosting provider, we strive to offer the best services to our valued customers. However, the ever-changing landscape of technology and rising costs have compelled us to make adjustments to our pricing structure. In this announcement, we will discuss the reasons behind the recent price changes in our web hosting, Minecraft hosting, VPS, Five reborn hosting, and Discord Bots services. These changes are necessary to accommodate inflation, rising server infrastructure costs, and the depletion of the IPv4 pool.
Webhosting: Increased Value, Decreased PriceStarting from 18-5-2023, we have decreased the price of our premium package from €5,99 to €4,25 per month. We have also made the basic, extra, and premium plans available only as 3-month packages. These changes are designed to offer increased value to our customers while maintaining affordability in a rapidly changing market.
Minecraft Hosting: Adjusted Pricing and Storage Options
Effective from 20**-6-2023**, we have increased the pricing of our Minecraft hosting plans from €1,50 to €1,99 per month. This adjustment reflects the rising hardware and energy costs associated with providing a seamless gaming experience. In addition, we have introduced backup storage (5GB for €0,50, 10GB for €0,99, or 25GB for €2,50). This options ensure that you have the flexibility to meet your storage needs while managing costs effectively.
VPS and Five Reborn Hosting: IPv4 Price Increase
Starting from **20-**6-2023, we will be increasing the price of our IPv4 addresses by €1 per IP on all existing and new services. This adjustment is necessary due to the exhaustion of the IPv4 pool. As the demand for unique IP addresses rises, their scarcity leads to increased costs associated with acquiring and maintaining them. We assure you that this price increase is essential for us to continue providing reliable services. We have looked at a lot of alternatives but this is the only viable option to sustain selling KVM VPS services to our customers that are not oversold.
Discord Bots: Adjusting Plans and PricingEffective from 01-7-2023, we will no longer offer the option to pay monthly for services that cost less than €2 per month. Our new plans will start at €6 per 3 months. This change is a result of heightened transaction costs associated with handling smaller payments. By streamlining our plans, we can focus on providing superior services and support.
Hardware upgrades
Effect from Early June we will be upgrading our Minecraft hosting, Game Hosting and Discord Bot hosting plans to a new machine with more capacity and more modern hardware the exact details will be shared later.
At our core, we are committed to offering green hosting solutions and minimizing our environmental impact. We are proud to be one of the few hosting companies providing CO2-neutral services. While adjusting our prices, we remain steadfast in our dedication to offering reliable, eco-friendly hosting solutions.
While we understand that price changes may cause concerns, please be assured that these adjustments are necessary to sustain our business strategy and continue providing quality and performant services. We appreciate your continued support and look forward to serving you with our improved hosting solutions.
Backup storage is subject to fair use policy and cannot be recovered if the server is terminated.
Sincerely,
Lars Speetjens
Business Director
