What is the Public Page and How Do I Use It?

FAQ

The Public Page is an optional page on FreeMcServer.net that you can share with your friends or community. It’s a simple, customizable landing page for your server where players can check the server status, join details, and even start or renew your server without you needing to log in.

This is perfect if you want your friends to keep the server alive when you’re away.

Your Public Page can:

  • ✅ Show whether your server is online or offline
  • ✅ Display the IP address (if you enable it)
  • ✅ Show a server description or welcome message
  • ✅ Display a list of online players
  • ✅ Allow players to start your server
  • ✅ Allow players to renew your server
  • 🎁 Reward players with in-game items when they renew (optional)

Pro Tip: Reward Players for Renewals

You can motivate players to keep your server alive by enabling the renewal reward.
Example:

This will give 5 diamonds to the player who renews your server on the Public Page

  • Reduces downtime since anyone you trust can start or renew the server.
