I am just curious if hosting providers like say Creeperhost allows you to use "mods" like Better Than Wolves and if so what would be the best option? I currently know of only Creeperhost and they show how to install modpacks but nowhere did I find any information on installing other mods that you yourself would choose.
Thanks in advance for any information as I am eagerly wanting to start a BTW server of my own and have the desire to do it right from the first attempt.

Most good hosts will allow you to upload a custom server jar.

Ok thanks I was just being thorough before I throw cash in the wrong direction.

Re: Virtual Servers for BTW?
Icy is right but to be more specific your looking for FTP (or file transfer protocol). this means you can edit the files over the internet using a program like filezilla.
if they don't offer FTP, don't use them, having mod support is irrelevant as you will just need to upload a new jar file yourself anyway.

Why not? Because it would have made sense!

I got a server here when the guy first started up: https://www.kbgservers.com
It is the smallest size and he was very helpful when I start out. I use a separate FTP client to get the jar up and d/l the map periodically.
So many frauds out there I am happy the service has been legit.
