Factions Server - How much money do I need?

[Mason.]

So basically the title says it all, I need advice on how much I need to spend on a Factions server for it to be popular. Thanks!

It all depends what you classify as 'popular.' A few hundred dollars can easily get you a decent playerbase but throwing more into it will help you achieve something bigger.

Yeah like $300-$400 around how big of a player base? Also will I make my money back? (All these questions are based on average servers with these budgets)[DOUBLEPOST=1545426852][/DOUBLEPOST]

2-5 Grand.

Hmm. That is quite a lot.

A lot of people wont believe this but we made a server with $100.

I did have a few connections but we ended up making $1,200

Really? Connections as in developers offering cheaper prices because they knew you?

No just some builds and hosting. Had a friend who could develop small plugins for a % of the profits.

To be honest, a player base is not defined by money it's more about how your server is on the first impression. The money is just for advertisements. Though to have your server on top-notch quality and be popular you are going to need to through thousands of dollars for YouTubers, cannoning spigot, developers, management, trailers, dedicated servers, website hosting, buycraft payments
, and much more.

Though, if you have something going, I wouldn't mind helping your network succeed through my management services. (Xanarchy#3059)

Won’t let me add people at the moment. Can you try adding me? Discord above. ^[DOUBLEPOST=1545429297][/DOUBLEPOST]

If you can develop your set.

Most faction servers, don't even get youtubers anymore tbh. They contact the factions personally & get them to play. If your server has the up-to-date features. You will definitely get players.

But yeah, If you're a developer maybe 300-400$? Else a decent bit more.

Alright, thanks.[DOUBLEPOST=1545429310][/DOUBLEPOST]
