How to Get a Custom IP for Your Minecraft Server

If you are hosting a Minecraft server, having a custom IP (subdomain) is an absolute game-changer. It makes your server more accessible, easier to share, and gives it a polished, professional look. Instead of sharing a complex string of numbers that is easy to forget, you can let players connect to something simple, like myserver.mnt.li, with just a few quick steps.

Why Use a Custom IP?

  • Memorable: A custom IP is much easier for players to remember and share.
  • Professional Image: It presents your server as organized and dedicated to a quality experience.
  • User-friendly: Sharing a word-based subdomain is simpler and less error-prone than an IP with multiple digits and ports.
  • Branding: Customize your server name to match your specific community or theme.

How to Set Up a Custom IP

  1. Go to mintservers.com/dashboard and log in with your credentials.
  2. Once logged in, look at the sidebar on the left and click on Subdomain under the hosting management panel.
  3. Enter your desired server name into the text box.
  4. Choose from one of our three available domain options from the dropdown menu: mintservers.com, mnt.li, or serv.cx. (For example, myserver.mnt.li).
  5. Click to confirm your selection and lock in your new custom IP!

💡 Pro Tips for an Impactful Custom IP

  • Be Concise: Choose short and relevant names for easy recall.
  • Avoid Special Characters: Use only alphanumeric characters and hyphens to minimize confusion.
  • Consider Keywords: If your server is known for a specific theme or modpack, include that directly in the name.
