    If you need cheap servers
    I can get you VPS Or Dedicated Servers
    ( VPS = Virtual Private server wich basicly is a virtual computer running in a another exploiting system ) ... Not so good for hosting a multiplayer game
    ( Dedicated = Real Server wich you have full controll and can install what ever you want even a VPS in it )
    With my partners we have a couple of excellent servers with excellent connection
    Linux ( CentOS ) Windows ( Server 2008 R2 Edititon - Fully Licensed )

    Contact me if you are interessed

    I would recommend ToggleBox. They are a Cloud Server Host and we have had nothing but success with them. No issues at all. They cost $400 per month for 8 CPU Cores, 50TB of Bandwidth per month, 100mb/s connection (Can be upgraded to 2,000mb/s connection for an extra $20 per month), 64 gigs of Ram and your Choice of OS or Split the resources between multiple Virtual Machines with their own OS.

    We have our Resources split between 2 Virtual Machines. A Linux based Virtual Machine that we run our Database on and a Windows based Virtual Machine that we run our Game Servers (Unity Headless Servers) on.

    You need a dedicated server or a dedicated VPS.

    If you want EU and US hosting, Leaseweb I've found offers the best value for money, and they have top infrastructure.
    NFOServers.com in the US also has some great prices, but they only have US hosting.
