How to Make a Popular TF2 Server

Making a popular "Team Fortress 2," or "TF2," server allows you to make new friends and create a new community of players in your area. "Team Fortress 2" is a multi-player first-person-shooter from Valve Corporation that allows players to create their own servers. If you have created your own "Team Fortress 2" server and are struggling to attract new players, there are a few things you can do to increase its popularity.

Instructions

- 1
  Select a reputable Web hosting company. Regular server outages or high pings, or latency, can prevent your server from becoming popular in the long term.
- 2
  Promote your new "Team Fortress 2" server on the official Steam forums and on social networks, such as Facebook or Twitter.
- 3
  Create a website for your "Team Fortress 2" server and add a message board to it. Forums allow users who regularly play on your server to give you feedback about it. Players can also use forums to talk to each other outside of the game and to set up "Team Fortress 2" item trades.
- 4
  Organize regular events. Examples of events are competitive matches between clans, local-area network parties or themed weeks.
