Hello,
So, you just brought a Minecraft server! Well, this blog explains all you need to know about owning your server! I will be basing my guide on Bukkit/Spigot, although I will soon be making a blog about Vanilla servers!
Choose your Server Software
Firstly, you need to choose what software to use. I recommend using Spigot, as it includes neat features. Here is a comparison between the two :)
Bukkit:
Spigot:
Getting started:
When getting started, I recommend you get a few basic plugins. These include Essentials, a Permissions plugin (I prefer EssentialsGroupManager), WorldEdit, WorldGuard and HideStream. Let me explain some of these plugins.
These are just the basics. I created some groups so you can choose the best for your server.
Survival:
Creative:
Prison:
Have some plugin suggestions? Message them to me!
I will becontinuously updating this guide. Thanks guys!

Choose your Server Software
Firstly, you need to choose what software to use. I recommend using Spigot, as it includes neat features. Here is a comparison between the two :)
Bukkit:
- Often updated before Spigot
- Reliable
- Plugin Support
- Hardly any customization without plugins
Spigot:
- BungeeCord support
- Extreme customization
- No lag what so ever
- Supports ALLBukkit plugins.
Getting started:
When getting started, I recommend you get a few basic plugins. These include Essentials, a Permissions plugin (I prefer EssentialsGroupManager), WorldEdit, WorldGuard and HideStream. Let me explain some of these plugins.
- Essentials - Adds many commands to improve the experience. Used on most servers.
- WorldEdit - Lets you edit terrain using commands. Don't trust everyone with this :)
- WorldGuard - Allows you to protect 'regions' in your world. Use this to protect your spawn, etc.
- HideStream - Allows you to hide the annoying joining/leaving messages.
- Permissions Plugin (PermissionsEX,GroupManageretc) - Allows players to do commands. This is probably the most important plugin you could have.
- CoreProtect - Allows you to find out who griefed :)
- Announcer - Announce messages to players.
- Buycraft - Accept donations from players.
These are just the basics. I created some groups so you can choose the best for your server.
Survival:
- mcMMO
- LWC
- ChestShop
- Factions
Creative:
- PlotMe (requirement: MultiverseCore)
- ChatControl
Prison:
- PrisonMine
- PaidRanks
- VanishNoPacket
- TreeAssist
- CombatTag

I like this blog, and i like how you made it bullet points. There is a line of text that has a enter next to it making it go off onto a separate line. Line: 2nd line aboveSurvival. Keep up the great work man though :)
