# Server setup

## Hosting a server

To host a server, you have two options: you can use a (free) server provider or you can host your own server.

### Third-party server hosting

If you choose a third-party server provider, we recommend you go with [playtogether.gg](https://playtogether.gg/) (a free, Skyrim Together-specific server hosting website). The setup for server hosting is significantly easier, so consider this option if you are not very handy with computers.

{% hint style="danger" %}
Playtogether.gg can't be used solely for playing with the same people in your LAN! \
It counts the internet connection (your house) as one Player and therefore kicks everyone from the server that uses this internet connection, if there aren't other players on the server not using said internet connection.
{% endhint %}

### Hosting your own server

If you want to host your own server, please continue reading the guide :thumbsup:
