(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Well, hi I am creating this mini guide, for people who cannot get people on there server.

first things first, Dont host your server at home, get a good hosting company to do the work for you! i would recommend:
You must login or register to view this content.
For only $10 a month, you can have your server hosted at a datacenter!

now the second thing:
Dont use the original minecraft server from minecraft.net!
Use another server, i recommend craftbukkit!
With craftbukkit, you can add lots of plugins like elevators, permissions !
to install bukkit plugins, just move them to the"plugins" dictionary.

The third thing:
Advertise your server on youtube, i started from 0 subscribers, but got 70000 veiws!
DONT ADVERTISE ON OTHERS VIDEOS
just create your own video, and also last thing, be nice and helpfull to the people!
good luck!

I wish i knew what u are talking 'bout, lol

I see how you put work into this for your referrals but its common sense.

Honestly, it doesn't matter how you host it as long as you can host it with enough space/speed to support the amount of people you want. There are professional sites out there that will host a server with 100% up-time, clickable options to add/remove mods at an instant and support over 100+ people on at a time for about 80 bucks a month. These types would be considered Premium usage but are great as they let you download all the information onto your own computer built already.

To be honest though, if you were to just have a few people on, just host on your own computer if you have good enough speeds, get a No-Ip address and use that.

this does not even tell you how to make a server at all and i already got a server anyways
