Pros & Cons
list2play
Pros
Free to list a server with no mandatory paid tier
Live player tracking and trend charts refreshed regularly for listed servers
Covers 100+ game titles plus Discord communities, not just one niche game
Embeddable vote widgets and a WordPress plugin make it easy to promote a listing off-site
Optional VIP tier gives server owners a clear, described path to more visibility
Cons
VIP pricing is not published on the site — owners must dig through a blog post or contact support to learn costs
No public information on total site traffic or how much real player growth VIP placement actually drives
Site is server-directory-only; it doesn't offer server hosting, moderation, or management tooling itself
No named company leadership, headquarters, or founding-year information disclosed publicly
