Tips for making a server.
A year a decided to make a public Bukkit server. This is my advice to people who want to start there own server
1. Don't do it for money. Chances are if you are making a server that will accept donations you are using a hosting company. You would rely on the donations to pay for it and to make a profit. But chances are you won't get a steady stream of donations. This is because everyone wants donate and play to the big servers. This is because the big servers are actually not just one server, they are many that are connected by plugins. They also hire programmers to make their own custom plugins. And finally some server owners spend over $6000 to hire people to build custom maps.
2. You don't always have to have a hosting company. If you want to make a small white listed server for about 1-10 players you can set it up on an OS called Ubuntu. You can do this for free.
