I rely on my primary machine for gaming consistently, yet I’d like to host a game. I don’t want to shut it down after the session, so I need a solution that lets me play it online without interrupting the experience. Is there a method to set up hosting from a website?

You can lease a server or access cloud-based resources. For instance here. When setting up hosting for local friends or specific locations, aim for a provider near your area to minimize latency. If the audience is dispersed, that distance becomes less critical.

You have the option to lease a specialized server or purchase one yourself. That's the choice.

You can find excellent equipment at affordable prices on eBay, including many Core2Duo/Quad Hp DC7800s, Dell 760s, and Lenovo ThinkCenters for around $90.

The EU is not specifically for the US; it refers to the European Union, which operates in Europe.

Absolutely, that makes sense. You'd prefer not to use your PC while it's powered down.

I guess so. Being from the EU, I’m sorry, but I can’t judge what’s good. Check it on Google. Here’s the list I found.
