Best Rust Server Hosting

Average Rust server hosting cost is around $11-$15 per month for small groups and $20-$35 for larger communities. Dedicated server cost is driven by CPU for big maps and raid-heavy wipes, RAM for entity counts and plugins, storage I/O for wipes and backups, plus bandwidth, DDoS protection, and admin tooling.
