Hello,
So, me and my friend recently started hosting a balkanian RolePlay SA:MP server. We started advertising it like a week before opening it. We do have some *******rs that will record videos on our server, and maybe make a livestream on it. However, our record is 7 players.
My friend told me to post this: How can we get more players on our server?
I've seen servers get players easily, by paying bigger *******rs to record videos on their server, but me and my friend don't want to risk it, and pay $100 to a *******r just to get players.
Any tips, guys?

A very attractive, nicely made , higher newbie stats , many awards , and hire some promotions , VIP's and hustle of things, just do that and you'll gain more than 30 players online. ( Including Balkan ). Currect situation in SAMP is very bad at balkan. 60% of balkan players begging/searching just for positions and free stuff, and you have to be finance good. DDOS Protection is mostly important as we here have many mentally retarted kids who struggling and trying to crap on your server. If you don't have huge ambitions, don't run server just because of donations/players whatever , do it for fun. No need to buy hosted tab because, most balkan server are very success without it.

1) advertise on legal server gaming advertising sites
2) get a domain name (makes you look more professional)
3) get a good server logo
4) get a website thats not enjin or any other free hosting sites
5) be patient
6) if the site you're advertising your server has a voting system, give rewards to players that vote for your server
7) Don't make your server too easy because players will get bored really quick and leave because there isn't much to achieve. Challenge and rewards produces dopamine in your brain once achieved

Thank you all for the replies. We reached 10 players by just advertising on *******.

That's right. Everyone asks for a rank or postition. Our host has got Anti DDoS which seems to work for now. We have a domain (.info), website, forums, teamspeak... We'll advertise more, and might find a *******r to record on our server.
