The problem with Aternos

Aternos is the most popular free Minecraft host, but it makes you wait in a queue just to start your world and auto-shuts it down when players leave. Great for a quick test, painful if you want your world always online.

How Raven Host differs

Raven Host runs your free Minecraft server 24/7 — it never sleeps and there's no queue. 200% CPU, 3 GB RAM and 10 GB storage, Vanilla/Paper/Spigot/Folia/Fabric, auto-installs on the US-Texas node in under a minute, and every server gets its own subdomain.

Deploy in under a minute

Sign up, open the store, pick a Game plan (or the free tier), choose Paper or Vanilla, type your Minecraft version and hit deploy. On the US-Texas node it auto-installs and starts — you get a subdomain like yourgame.games.ravenhost.space to join in minutes.
