Hey guys! MCHelper here and today, I'm going to tell you some cheap (or free) advertising tips!
Step #1 - Offer a [Youtuber] rank. People with 500+ Subscribers can get your player rate up. Might not be a spectacular rise but the more you have, the more players will come. To get youtubers you should offer them a special perk. For example, when someone votes they get 500$ but when a youtuber votes they get 550$. I'm not sure how you could set this up but this is an example. Make sure to make some rules for them. Some of the rules servers do is to upload 1 video a week about their server or they lose their rank.
Step #2 - Offer a [Streamer] rank for twitch.tv (or other services) streamers. This is pretty much the same thing as giving a youtuber rank but they have to live stream.
Step #3 - MinecraftServers.org slots are supposed to help you advertise by putting your server on the top of their homepage. I'm not sure how these work but they work! they get your playercount high! as proof below shows.
Step #4 - Voting gives you a lot of chance for advertising. Usually when the player votes, they get a reward and they tend to vote again if the server isn't too OP and it has good rewards. I'd recommend putting your server to as many voting services (such as Minestatus, MinecraftServers, Planet Minecraft, etc.) as you possibly could.
Step #5 - Giving rewards to people who invite a friend. This is a very unprofessional way to get players in my opinion but it does work. People would usually add a plugin for this that gives a reward to the person that advertised and the person who joined so they would carry on playing.
I hope this helps you out! Please leave a
