What the goblin built

Restores tell you when they are done

Restoring a backup now shows its progress on the Backups tab and says the moment your world is back, with a Start button right there. If the server is running, the goblin stops it for you first. The Overview shows "Restoring backup" meanwhile, so nobody has to guess when it is safe to press Start.

Fifteen more packs with their own hosting guides

DawnCraft, Better MC 5, Vault Hunters 3, DeceasedCraft, Create: Astral and more, each sized honestly, all on one page of guides. Any other pack with a server pack installs just the same from the order page.

Account protection

Stronger password requirements, sign-in throttling, and two-factor authentication now covers every sensitive action. Nothing to do on your side.

Discord launched

HostGoblin has a Discord. Ask questions, meet other server owners, and hear about changes first: join here. Every new server also arrives with the invite.

Split the bill at checkout

The order page can show what a server costs per player for your group, so you know what to ask your friends for before you pay.

Cobblemon and COBBLEVERSE, pre-dug

Both packs have their own pages with honest RAM sizing: the Cobblemon Official Modpack and COBBLEVERSE. The join page tells your friends exactly which pack and version to install.

Invites wait for a yes

Share a server by sending a friend an invite link. They see what they are being given and accept it themselves, and you can withdraw it until they do.

Rust wipe day without the surprises

A stopped Rust server now stays stopped through settings changes, wipes and updates until you press Start, and Restart also applies the latest Rust build. See the Rust hosting page.

Invite friends to your modded server with one file

Every server now has a shareable join page with a one-click setup pack. Your friends download a single file, open it in a launcher like the Modrinth App, and it installs the right Minecraft version and every mod automatically. No hunting for Fabric API, no version mismatches.

This very page

HostGoblin now keeps a changelog: dated, shipped, customer-visible things, in plain words. You found it, which means the footer link works too. The goblin logs the ledger in the ledger and feels no shame.

A map for Realms switchers

Moving from Minecraft Realms? A step-by-step guide now walks the whole move: export your world, upload it, get the crew in. Your Realm stays untouched until you are sure.

Real customers at the checkout

Quotes from long-time customers now greet you at checkout, matched to the game you are buying. Every word theirs, shared with permission.

Chip-in pages for community servers

A server can now have a public funding page: players toss a coin toward hosting costs, one-time or monthly, no account needed.

A shorter road to checkout

The order flow lost its detours, and if life interrupts mid-checkout the goblin can pick your cart back up right where you left off.

Bedrock servers keep themselves updated

Minecraft updated and a console refused to connect — so now servers follow the newest Bedrock version on their own, with an off switch and a manual update button for those who like pressing it.

Upload a Bedrock world from your browser

Drop a .mcworld file on the Settings tab and the goblin unpacks it, swaps it in, and flips the multiplayer switches that single-player exports carry. Built the same afternoon a customer needed it.

Share your server, keep your keys

Invite friends as sub-users with starter roles — co-owner, operator, and more — each with sensible permissions you can tune per person. Billing stays yours alone.

Switch server software without fear

Change between Vanilla, Paper, Purpur, Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge right from the dashboard. The goblin takes a safety backup before every switch, and your world rides along.

HostGoblin opens its doors

Servers by Jomica became HostGoblin: a proper storefront, one-click modpacks, automatic daily backups, and a live console in the browser. Same person minding the rack since 2017.
