A Discord bot only answers while its program is running. On your own PC that means the PC stays on, and the moment it sleeps, updates or drops off the network the bot goes quiet in every server it is in.
Here it runs on a server in Sydney with memory of its own, a console you can read from your phone, and a Config tab that knows what a bot needs. The file to start, the packages to install and the repository to pull from.

WHY MCHOSTS

Why host your bot with us

Five runtimes, nothing to set up
Choose Node.js, Python, Java, .NET or a compiled binary at checkout, and switch later in your control panel. The server installs what your package.json or requirements.txt asks for at every start, and ffmpeg and ImageMagick are a tick away on the Config tab. Your token goes in an environment variable. It stays hidden in the panel and out of your code.
Deploy from GitHub
Put the repository address and branch on the Config tab and the server pulls your code. Turn on pull at every start, and a push to the branch is live at the next restart. Private repositories take a username and token.
Support in your timezone
Your ticket goes to the people who run the hardware, and they read it in Australian hours rather than on another continent's next morning.
Sized by what the bot holds in memory
Some bots use the same memory in one server or a hundred. Others cache every member and message, or hold a voice connection per server, and grow with each one they join. 1GB runs most bots in a handful of communities. A music bot, a bot in many servers, or a Python bot with heavy libraries wants more, and you move up a size from the panel.

WHY A SERVER

A bot that is online when you are not

The usual places a bot lives are a PC under a desk or a free host. The PC has to stay on and awake, and a free host puts the bot to sleep after a while or caps how long it may run. Either way the people in your server find out before you do.
On a server of its own the bot has nothing to compete with. It starts when you say and keeps running after you close the laptop. With crash alerts on, you hear by email or in Discord if it ever stops, before a friend asks where the bot went. Its console shows you why.
Stays up when your PC is off
Optional crash alerts by email or Discord
One place for the console, the files and the settings
HOW IT WORKS

Upload it, or pull it from GitHub

Your code gets to the server one of three ways. Drop the files on the Files tab, connect over SFTP with the password you set, or give the Config tab a repository and a branch and let the server pull it. Then name the main file and press start.
At every start the server installs what package.json or requirements.txt names, and anything you listed in the extra packages field, then runs your main file. The console shows exactly what your bot prints, so the first start tells you what is missing.
Main file, arguments and extra packages on one tab
Repository, branch, and pull at every start for a private or public repo
Environment variables for your token, with the values hidden
SIZES

Four sizes, 1GB to 4GB

Start on 1GB for a bot in one community. 2GB when it holds more in memory or does a few jobs side by side. 3GB and 4GB are for a public bot in many communities, a music bot, or a Python bot with heavy libraries.
Every size comes with 5GB of storage per GB of RAM, and more is a 10GB block you add from the panel. You move up a size from the panel too, and your files come with you.
