A while back i paid someone around a thousand dollars to create me a good prison server with a xenforo license and to find me a good host for the website and server along with graphics advertising etc. I asked for a prison server which was custom etc and ended up with a "premade" factions setup as it was their old file, no xenforo, server but no web hosting, $5 graphics which in all honesty i wouldnt even pay that for. So $1000 out of pocket with the only thing usable is a graphic made in paint with a mouse and no shading whatsoever i'm bascially at square one. So i turned here for some help.

First of all some questions
How do i advertise? (always my problem with old servers was playerbase obviously)
What web hosting should i use?
What server hosting should i use?
Should i use xenforo or is there other software?
Im probably going to make my own setup\

I can't really think of anything else atm but thannk you all in advance.

I would try advertising freely first, make an instagram target minecraft audience, etc.
Then, I would go to the sites that let your IP and server be known on there site for free.
Then, I would find strategies to market to more minecraft players that specifically like that type of server. Sorry I only could attempt to answer the advertising question.
