Hello there, we are Host-Seed. And we're here to help with all your Minecraft server needs, literally. We host packages from half a gigabyte to massive 72GB dedicated servers. Not only that, we do web design (we made our site!), graphics, and promotional trailers. Chances are, if you need something, we've got it. Now, what are you here for again? That's right, hosting.
Here are some features and bits about us:
All servers run on Solid-State-Drives for blazing fast speed.
We've created a enhanced version of Multicraft designed to make your life easier and prettier!
Manage resources with our own custom control panel, Aksel. View and analyze historical usage statistics with the click of a button. (Note: Still in beta, but releasing around the end of June!)
We have agents on our Live Chat nearly 24/7, so if your server is broke, we can fix it!
Every server gets unlimited SSD storage, so long as you use it fairly!
We don't monitor your bandwidth - don't be afraid to play all you want.
Our staff are some of the top in their field, with a minimum of six of years experience in their specialties.
Dedicated IPs are optionally available and can be used on most of the servers.
MySQL databases are available for just fifty cents a month - cheaper than a soda.
Why are we so affordable? It's simple, really. We don't gut you for your money. We enjoy doing this, and we think you should too. Our client base shows how much this idea works - just in the past few weeks our servers have recorded over 135,000 unique players. And we've never gotten a negative testimonial. Other hosts may seem cheaper, but most of them put you on slow HDDs - we don't, Solid State Drives all the way!
Servers available in the US and now the UK as well!

Love this company, been with them around a month, and I must say, I couldn't be happier! I would very much like to work for them in the future if their hiring, because with My Java and HTML skills, I think I could help make it even better.
Un-related to the hosting itself but relating to your website, the background color of your logo is slightly different to that of the div it is within.
May I ask where?
Ps. in the future, please send a PM instead of posting a reply. thanks!
Our current nodes have 3.4GHz Intel Xeon CPUs and SSDs in RAID. Guaranteed 100mpbs uplink
Upcoming nodes will be larger, with Dual Intel Xeon L5520 CPUs (4.54 GHz in total; twice the number of cores), SSDs with large HDDs for server backups, and a 100Mbps uplink.
@Fingo: Let's take this in PM, so we don't clog up the forums
For everyone: Due to the high interest in server of the month sponsored images on our Multicraft, we're having bidding! Bid now if you're interested in gaining exposure to 12,000 pageviews per month!
Do you offer a trial server? (few days/month)? How long have you been hosting? Do you have long term goals? Will you be here in a year, 2 years, 10? If you were to close would you tell your customers before so they could move somewhere else with out losing everything?
Current host never emails about anything ever which causes me much worry that one day they will just be up and gone with no warning.

Good questions, I will try to answer them as candidly as possible.
If we were to close, we would certainly tell our hosters about it. We keep enough funds in "cold storage" to sustain us for a while, and if there was any sort of emergency resulting in our closing, we would certainly keep the servers up long enough for all our customers to get their files and configs off, and find a new host. I believe I can speak for most all of us when I say that our main motivating factor is enjoyment on both sides, not profit, so there would be no point in us closing down suddenly and without warning - it might save a few pennies, but would leave a very bad legacy. As our website says, "We enjoy doing this, and we think you should too."
We maintain a pretty consistent email contact. We don't try to spam your inbox, but we do send information if there is an emergency of some sort, or if there are changes that need to be made to your server. We also send out a monthly newsletter (such as the one above) which is - surprisingly - good to read, as it always contains some sort of giveaway along with our most recent R&D updates and releases. And we have very good support if you have any questions, which is something the majority of people talk about in their manytestimonialsaboutus.
As for permanency, we have no plans of closing. Currently, we have enough financial redundancies to ensure that a disruption in one sector would not resulting in the entire service going down. It would take a very extreme set of cases to force us to close entirely - we are not one of the dime-a-dozen "boom and bust" companies. At the moment we are still increasing our services at a healthy pace, and have opened up servers at a new location just this past week.
Our overall company has been alive and active for about two years now, without notable disruptions aside from a recent rebranding for more Minecraft-specific services.
We do not offer a trial server, though we have a demo server available. Message me if you would like the IP for that; though we do have DoS protection, we'd prefer not to have to use it too often.
Well, there's nearly 500 words. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask on here, Live Chat, or tickets!

I have been with Host-Seed for a period of time now. I transferred over from a different hosting company, and I immediately saw a change in performance, service, and quality. I greatly commend their low prices and quality service. Host-Seed will always be my number one hosting company.
