What's new on CraftRank
The site keeps improving: here is everything added recently, for players and for server teams. The ranking itself never changes: it only counts players' votes.

"Launcher required": no more players lost when connecting
Server teams: if your server is played with your own launcher (modded, custom launcher), tick "Launcher required" in "Visuals & links" and add the download link. A badge shows on your page and, when a player copies your IP, a window tells them, with the official link and a few safety tips.
-
Pick your frame, colour and title from your profile
In "My profile", every frame, name colour and title is shown with a preview: pick the ones you unlocked in one click, and see how to get the others (monthly pass, invited friends): /en/profil
-
Servers recommended by CraftRank
A new block on the home page features servers picked automatically, with a score out of 100: complete page, votes, different players, uptime, reviews, vote rewards and activity. No paid offer counts and the ranking does not change. Server teams: your score and the point worth the most are in "My servers". Details: /en/serveurs-recommandes
-
Guess the server of the day
Every day, a server to find in 6 tries: game mode, edition, version, rank and players online are your clues. Share your grid with your friends and keep your streak: /en/devine-le-serveur. And discover the most voted servers of the year: /en/meilleurs-serveurs-minecraft-2026
-
Your monthly recap as an image and a Discord badge that updates itself
On the 1st of each month, you get your server's recap as an image (rank, votes, players) with a text ready to post on Discord and TikTok; the link shows the visual as a preview. And in "Share", the "Ranked on CraftRank" badge posts your rank and vote link in a Discord channel, updated every hour, without a bot: a simple webhook is enough.
-
A free Sponsor week at 30 votes, and a page to present the site
New server? As soon as you reach 30 votes in a month (from at least 10 players), a Sponsor week is offered automatically, once per server; your progress shows in "My servers". The ranking itself stays based on votes only: /en/offre-de-lancement. And to convince your team or your host, the "Why CraftRank?" page brings together the site's real figures and a press kit: /en/pourquoi-craftrank
-
Discord kit, your real Google searches and the effect of rewards
In "Share", the Discord kit gives you messages ready to copy, filled with your real rank (votes missing to climb, days left, top voters). Your "Google visibility" page now shows the searches that lead to your page. And "My servers" tells you how many more votes servers that reward their players get.
-
Your account in 10 seconds, a rating in one click
After a vote, create your account with your name already filled in: your vote, your streak and your card of the month follow you. You can rate a server in one click (the comment is optional), and discover servers of the same mode as the one you like.
-
Swipe, "Where do we play tonight?", predictions and vote cards
Swipe servers like on a dating app and find your 3 ideal servers: /en/decouvrir. See where people are playing right now and the events starting: /en/ce-soir. Guess the top 3 of the month to win a badge: /en/pronostics. And every month you vote gives you a collectible card (Common, Rare, Epic or Legendary) to share on TikTok, on your public profile.
-
Your report as a PDF and your Google visibility score
The monthly report can be downloaded as a PDF: one page with the figures, votes per day and where your visitors come from, to share with your staff. And the new "Google visibility" page (in My servers) scores your page out of 100 and tells you what to improve to show up better on Google: text, searched words, reviews, news, link from your website.
-
Join the staff of a server
Moderator, builder, developer, event host… Every server recruiting right now, with a page per role explaining what is expected: /en/serveurs-minecraft-qui-recrutent
-
Pages of foreign servers translated automatically
A Spanish, German or Polish server? Its description, presentation and rules are now translated automatically into English on /en, with a link to the original text. Server teams: the language of your page is detected automatically, and you can also choose it in "Edit".
-
Your friends, your reviews and the live monthly ranking
In "My profile", see the servers the friends you invited vote for. Your public profile now shows your latest reviews and the servers you follow. And the current month's ranking has its own page: /en/classement/archives
-
Season history, Votifier checked and RSS feeds
Your past seasons show on your page. When you change your Votifier settings, the site checks right away that it answers. And every server has its RSS feed (news, events, seasons) to plug into a Discord bot: the "RSS feed" link is on your page.
-
Add a profile photo
In "My profile", add a photo: it shows next to your reviews, on your public profile and at the top of the site. And your names are never translated on the English version anymore: /en/profil
-
Your server in 3 questions, and sorting by rating
Game mode, version, PC or mobile: answer 3 questions and find the 3 servers that suit you: /en/trouver-un-serveur. On category pages, you can also sort by players' rating (the official ranking stays the votes one).
-
Site records and version comparisons
Most votes in a month, longest voting streak, most players online…: every record is on /en/records. And to pick a version, new pages compare 1.8 and 1.21, 1.12 and 1.16, 1.21 and 26.x… with the servers that accept both: /en/serveurs-minecraft/version
-
Minecraft commands explained and rankings per mode
/tp, /gamemode, /home, /tpa, /f, /is…: each command has its page with the syntax, examples and the servers that use it: /en/commandes-minecraft. And each game mode has its monthly ranking (best Survival, Factions, SkyBlock servers…): /en/classement/archives
-
Hesitating between two game modes?
Survival or semi-RP, Factions or SkyBlock, PvP or minigames…: new pages compare the pace, PvP, team play and progression, with the most voted servers of each mode: /en/quel-mode-choisir
-
"Up-to-date page" badge and season statistics
Confirm in one click in "My servers" that your details are up to date (version, address, modes): the "Up-to-date page" badge reassures players for 60 days. And if you announced a season, the Statistics page shows how many players saw your countdown, followed you and were notified.
-
Told when your votes drop
If your votes are more than 30% below last month at the same date, you are told (notification and email) with tips suited to your page, in time to climb back before the end of the month.
-
The upcoming seasons calendar
Server teams: add the date of your next season, wipe, new map or opening in "Edit": a countdown shows on your page and in the ranking, and your followers are told the day before and at launch. Players: every upcoming season is here: /en/prochaines-saisons-minecraft
-
Your statistics compared with last month
Votes, players who vote, page visits and copied addresses: the Statistics page now compares this month with the same days of last month, with the change in percent and your end-of-month rank.
-
"X vs Y" comparisons
Two close, active servers now get their own comparison page (votes, reviews, players online, versions), to help players who hesitate between them. They are created automatically and have no effect on the ranking: /en/comparatif
-
Versions 26.x have their pages
The site understands the new Minecraft numbering (26.1, 26.2…). Server teams: write it in the "Version" field of your page (for example "1.8 - 26.1") to appear on the page of each version covered. Players: find a server that works with your version: /en/serveurs-minecraft/version
-
Declare your plugins
Tick your server's plugins (mcMMO, Towny, GriefPrevention, Geyser…) in "Edit": they show on your page, and your server appears on the pages explaining each plugin to players: /en/plugins-minecraft
-
Inactive pages: warned before any hiding
If your server does not answer at all for 30 days, you are told by email and in "My servers"; one click on "The server is coming back soon" gives you 14 more days. Otherwise the page is hidden 7 days later, and comes back automatically as soon as the server answers (votes and reviews kept).
-
A checklist to launch your server
New servers now have a 7-step list in "My servers" (page, Verified badge, rewards, Discord bot, first news, first 10 votes, vote button) with a progress bar and one small reminder a day during the first week.
-
Your server celebrates its anniversary
Every year on its listing date, your server shows a "🎂 2 years" badge (for example) on its page and in the ranking for 7 days, and the bot celebrates in your Discord.
-
Schedule your news and events
Write a news or an event in advance and pick the publishing date and time (up to 60 days): it goes live by itself, and your followers are notified at that moment. You can also publish it right away or cancel it.
-
Alert when your server is offline
The site checks your server every 5 minutes: if it has not answered for 15, 30 or 60 minutes (your choice), your team gets an email and, if you add a webhook, a message in your Discord staff channel, then another as soon as it is back. Settings in "Edit", Offline alert section.
-
Partners: your banner statistics
Partner server? Your Share page now shows your partner banner displays, the visits it brings and the votes that follow, and warns you if it is no longer detected on your website.

Apply for the Partner grade
Partner badge, a spot in the home page showcase and a banner with your name: the /en/devenir-partenaire page checks your server's criteria live and lets you apply as soon as they are met. Free, and it never changes the ranking.
-
Your votes shown in a Discord channel
Paste a Discord webhook URL in the "Webhook URL" field of your page: every vote shows up in the channel with the player's name. The result of the last call is now shown under the field, with an explanation if something goes wrong.
-
"Java + Bedrock (cross-play)" option
Your server also accepts mobile and console players? Choose "Java + Bedrock (cross-play)" as your page's edition and enter the Bedrock port: it is shown on your page, in "How to join" and by the bot, and you appear on the mobile, PlayStation, Xbox and Switch pages.
-
The live ranking in your Discord
With the classement-direct command, the bot shows the month's top 10, your server's rank and today's votes in the channel of your choice, updated every hour. Your players see where you stand without leaving Discord.

-
The Discord bot celebrates your wins
