You have to understand time zones. Look at the PMC stats and see how many people are online. You'll find that the majority of users are in North America, so it would be night time for people in the UK. What you can take from this is that if you advertise your server during day time in North America then more people will be likely to join. You also have to take into consideration that some people have school, and since Minecraft is primarily played by younger children, they have school.
What i'm trying to say is that when you advertise you have to do it when most people are on, so give a higher chance of people joining.
Also, the section this thread is posted in is wrong.
