🛠️ How to Advertise Your Minecraft Server

Minecraft servers are more fun when you can play and enjoy the game with more players. For new server owners, attracting players to your server can be challenging, which is why we’ll guide you through some tips and tricks to kickstart your own Minecraft server community.

One popular way to attract players to your server is through advertising. But wait! Before you publish your server advertisement, it’s important to ensure that your server is ready for players. Not only that, but once your ad is out and players start joining, you’ll also want them to stay and even invite their friends to play on your server.

Our checklist below will help you prepare your server to be more appealing and ensure player retention. It’s recommended to go through this list before advertising your server.

🔧 Tips for Increasing Player Retention

Fully set up your Minecraft server (builds, permissions, ranks, shops, and other configurations) to avoid impacting server availability and performance.

Use a custom domain/subdomain (e.g., MyPixelHost.com) as your server address to make it easier to remember and share.

Choose a game mode or server type that offers players a unique experience.

Invite your friends to play on your server to encourage new players to stay. The more, the merrier!
