So since I had opened my server host 9 days ago I have been thinking of some side projects that could be fun for me to do (I love staying busy). Today I thought of possibly a great idea... there are many Minecraft server list websites, right? Why not have a website for Minecraft server hosts! I know there are small ones that are new and would like to get their name out, it could be pretty much the same as submitting a server just different info, and let people review hosts as well. It could also have a area where you can pay $2.50/month for a banner on the top of the website. It could also be a place for VPS, dedicated servers and web hosts to advertise as well. I was thinking of the name "Hostertise" which would mean Host Advertise.... ideas? Better names?


Thoughts and ideas?? I only know of one site like this: http://www.bestminecrafthosts.com/

If you have any ideas for it let me know! I need someone who can help make the website, if you can help with that I will pay you (Once I start getting money from it) and if you work for a host or own one you will get a banner on the website for free.


Please don't hate on this thread etc.... I simply had this idea and want a couple thoughts to see if its worth it.

If you have any questions feel free to let me know! :)

You could add like a table of the hosts where people can refine the list by price, e.g. filter the results by $$/per GB :) help people save money maybe?

Not everyone sells by the GB
Once all my U.S. servers get racked and setup, i'm planning on making it $1.25/gb but add on some $ to pay for bandwidth usage, IPv4s, disk space, etc. So a $0.50/gb host might cost $4.50 if you buy 1gb possibly

Got our logo made! Thank you to BlueMisty for making the great logo! Let me know what you guys think! Will be working on the website soon![DOUBLEPOST=1490406486][/DOUBLEPOST]Still looking for a web designer to help, sadly I don't know where to start for something like this. If you know somebody who would like to help me please let me know. I have no money atm but I will pay you/them once we release and are making $....

Though I had a kinda good idea... what if I made it with Xenforo? I will have a place to apply for you to become a host or something and it might be 10x easier.... A bit harder to add some features but a bit easier....

Would you be interested in a partnership where my hosting company sponsors the site?
