Add your server

Listing a server on CraftRank is free and takes a few minutes. You need an account, the address players use to join, and a short description. Your server must be online when you save, because we check it right away.

Before you start

• Create a free account and sign in.
• Make sure your server is online. On Java, enable-status=true must be set in server.properties, or we can't see it.
• Check that your server isn't listed already. If the address is taken, the form says This address is already listed. In that case, claim it instead.

Fill in the form

Open Add server. The form has five parts:

1. Basics: server name (3 to 60 characters), address and port, edition (Java or Bedrock) and the language spoken on your server. If you leave the port empty, we use 25565 for Java and 19132 for Bedrock. You can also type play.example.net:25570 and we split the port off. SRV records work.
2. Banner: optional, but listings with a banner stand out. See Your server page for sizes.
3. Game modes: pick at least one. Players filter the list by these.
4. Description: at least 30 characters, in your own words.
5. Vote rewards: optional. You can set this up later with the CraftRank plugin or Votifier.

The preview on the right shows how your listing looks and how many of the five checklist items are done. Press Add server to save.

Review and approval

New servers are checked by our team before they appear in the list. Until then, your server shows Pending review under My servers, with the note Waiting for admin approval.

• Live: your server is in the list and players can vote for it.
• Rejected: the reason is shown on your server card. Fix the listing, then press Edit server and save. It goes back for review.

How many servers you can add

Each account can list a limited number of servers. The line at the bottom of My servers shows how many you have used. To free a slot, delete a listing you no longer need.
