How to add your Minecraft server to ListaMC

Adding a server takes a few minutes and costs nothing. Here is the whole process.

1. Create your account

Select Add server at the top of any page. If you don’t have an account yet, create one with your email and a password. This account is only for server owners: players don’t need one to vote.

2. Add the server

Fill in the server name, the address players type in Minecraft (for example play.yourserver.com) and whether it’s a Java or Bedrock server. Pick up to five categories and write a description. A good description says what makes your server different in the first two lines, because that’s what shows on the list.

3. Prove the server is yours

ListaMC gives you a short code like listamc-a1b2c3d4. Put it anywhere in your server’s MOTD, restart or reload the server, and select Verify now. Our checker pings the server and looks for the code. Once it finds it, your server appears on the list and you can remove the code from the MOTD.

If the check fails, the dashboard shows the MOTD we saw, so you can see what’s missing.

4. Set up vote rewards (optional)

If you use NuVotifier, add its host, port and token in the dashboard. Every vote then reaches your server and your reward plugin can pay the player. See how to reward players for voting for the details.

5. Install the ListaMC Connect plugin (optional)

The ListaMC Connect plugin adds your players’ usernames and skins to ListaMC automatically, so their profiles here stay up to date. Create a plugin key on your server’s panel and paste it in the plugin’s config.yml.

Keep your server near the top

Your server is checked every five minutes. Keep it online, ask your players to vote once a day and bump it from the dashboard every six hours to show it in the Bumped servers list on the home page.
