Successful servers - What? Why? When? How?
I have been playing minecraft now for around 3 years, And I am now beginning to notice and understand the steps implicated by server owners to make their server's successful. But before I can explain this to you, You need to understand what I mean by 'A successful Server'.
Successful Server - This is a server of any type (e.g Factions pvp, Walls, creative, hunger games etc.) That has a high number of players (usually 30-40+) regularly on the server.
In my opinion, there is one major factor that will decide wether a new server will become successful or not, And this is, the Owner(s). It is the Owner(s) job to do everything! No matter how good the staff behind a server owner may be, It is still up to the server owner, to manage his/her staff effectively, and be effective themselves at the same time.
The Staff - The team of staff must be finely tuned to make them as efficient as possible at doing the jobs they will be required to do on a popular server. Unfortunately, for the owner, this usually means you have to be strict, and sometimes harsh/critical to get the best staff you can possibly get.
Plugins - Good plugins are essential, not only do they make the server more appealing, but with the right plugins, they can add a whole different aspect to your server, which is essential! Originality is the key!!!
Website/Graphics - A solid website and good graphics are two big factors for making a popular server. These will make the server look much more professional, and the server website is usually the place where a server community is built, Forums, Donations. A good website is a good/solid foundation in my opinion.
If you can meet the demands of all of the factors I have just mentioned, then I have good reason to believe your server could be successful! PLEASE feel free to leave a comment with your opinion!
