About Us
Learn about our company and how we set ourselves apart from the monolithic hosting providers
Built by one person, for everyone.
Revelation Hosting was founded by Christian LaPlante, who built the entire platform from scratch — every line of code, every server, every data center. What started as a side project in 2015 became a full hosting platform, developed solo over the course of a decade with no team, no investors, and no prior web development experience.
Every server in our data centers was personally sourced, assembled, racked, and wired by hand. Our Tennessee region was deployed after a 2,400-mile drive from Washington state in an RV, with hard drives wrapped in blankets to survive the trip. This isn't a corporate venture — it's a labor of love, and that shows in how we treat our customers.
We set up your server so you don't have to.
Hosting a game server shouldn't require a degree in system administration. When you sign up for a paid plan, our white-glove onboarding means we handle the hard parts for you — mod installation, server configuration, performance tuning, and troubleshooting.
Just tell us what you want to run and how you want it configured. We'll get it set up, tested, and ready for your players. This isn't a premium add-on — it's included with every paid server because we believe the onboarding experience should be effortless.
