Frequently Asked Questions

• lightbulb_outlineWhat is a sponsored slot?
  A sponsored slot places your server above all top-voted servers on our server list, putting it in front of every visitor who browses the site. This is the most powerful way to get eyes on your server without relying on votes. Your slot remains active for the full duration you purchased, regardless of vote count.
• lightbulb_outlineWhere are sponsored slots shown?
  Sponsored slots are displayed at the top of the homepage, as well as on the category, version, and country pages that match your server. For example, if your server is tagged as "Survival", runs version 1.21, and is based in the US, it will appear at the top of the Survival category page, the 1.21 version page, and the United States country page. This means targeted visibility for exactly the players looking for your server type.
• lightbulb_outlineHow are the sponsored slots ordered?
  Sponsored slots are randomly rotated on every page load, giving each server an equal and fair chance at the top position. No slot is permanently pinned above another, so every server gets the same opportunity to be seen first.
• lightbulb_outlineHow many sponsored slots do we allow?
  We cap sponsored slots at 6 at any given time. This keeps the section from becoming crowded and ensures every sponsored server gets meaningful visibility. If all 6 slots are taken, you will see the date the next slot becomes available so you can plan accordingly.
• lightbulb_outlineWhat are the slot statistics?
  Estimated Players Joined tracks how many unique visitors copied your server's IP address while your slot is active, giving you an idea of how many players may have attempted to join. Server Page Views counts how many times your server's detail page was visited during the slot. Both stats are unique per IP address to prevent inflation, and both reset when your slot expires.

• lightbulb_outlineCan I combine sponsored and premium?
  Yes. Sponsored and premium can be purchased together for maximum impact. Premium adds a gradient glowing border around your server's slot, making it stand out even further among other sponsored servers. If you want the best visibility possible, combining both is the way to go.
• lightbulb_outlineWhat happens when my slot expires?
  Once your sponsored slot duration ends, your server is automatically removed from the sponsored section and returns to the regular server list. Your slot statistics (IP copies and page views) are also reset. You can purchase a new slot at any time, and if you act before it expires you will not lose any visibility.
