In need of advertising advice

[Adware]

Hello, I am Robin, and I currently own a server called SFMC(Straight Forward MineCraft).
We have a playerbase of around 0-10 players on at a time.
We once reaced 50 players online, but this time has passed.

I am not the one who pays for the server, but the guy who pays needs donations to keep it up.
He is willing to spend some money on advertising, but not too much. Our server got from 50+ players to 0-10. Could anyone tell me why?

We don't have anything unique(Making soon though), but how can the server just die out? And can anyone give me some advice on how to advertise the best for the future?

The name's pretty straight forward.

I'm planning to buy .org slots after I pay off my artist whose making my server logo. My staff suggests a .org slot just 1 hours if lucky during weekends will bring plenty of players. Make your server unique, I'm custom coding a very simple plugin for my kitpvp server to randomize potion effects (both positive and negative) for every kill you get.

Example: You kill a player, threres a random chance you get Regeneration 4 for 5 seconds or something (using Math.random() in the code) or when you hit a player theres a chance you poison or wither them, etc. I think its a nice perk for all players to experience on my kitpvp server, and thats just 1 way of making it more unique =)
