Make Your Server Stand Out With Message of the Day

Looking to customize your Minecraft server’s MOTD (Message of the Day) and make it look awesome on the multiplayer screen?

Introducing the Minecraft Server MOTD Generator: a free, easy-to-use tool that helps you create colorful, styled, and eye-catching MOTDs for your Java or Bedrock server.

No coding required. Just click, style, copy, and paste.

🧠 What Is an MOTD?

MOTD stands for Message of the Day. It’s the text players see in the server list before they join.

A great MOTD can:

  • Make your server more attractive
  • Communicate your brand or gameplay type
  • Draw more clicks from server listings
  • Share events, updates, or promotions

⚡ What Our MOTD Generator Can Do

With our free MOTD Generator, you can:

  • Create two-line MOTDs (as supported by Minecraft)
  • Add colors using Minecraft color codes
  • Apply styles like bold, italic, strikethrough, and underline
  • Preview how it looks in the actual server list format
  • Instantly copy the final code into your server.properties file
  • Get both legacy (§) and JSON format support (for advanced use)

No need to memorize color codes like §a, §c, or §l. Our tool handles that automatically.

✍️ How It Works

Using the generator is super simple:

  1. Type your MOTD text (line 1 and line 2)
  2. Highlight the text you want to style
  3. Click color and formatting buttons
  4. Copy the result (formatted with § codes or JSON)
  5. Paste it into your server.properties file or server panel

That’s it! You’ll see your new MOTD next time you refresh your server list.

🌍 Supports Both Java and Bedrock

We support Java Edition servers, and we’re also working on improved support for Bedrock Edition panels that accept JSON or plaintext.

You can even export both formats:

  • § Code (Legacy style used in most panels)
  • JSON (Advanced servers, especially Bedrock or BungeeCord setups)

🎯 Why Your MOTD Matters (More Than You Think)

Your MOTD is the first impression players get when they see your server in:

  • Their multiplayer list
  • Voting sites (many fetch your MOTD)
  • Discord status bots
  • Server browser apps

A great MOTD isn’t just visual fluff — it’s a conversion tool that helps turn impressions into joins.
