🎨 Customization:

  • Craft compelling custom descriptions: Optimize your listing with descriptions that capture the essence of your server and attract the right users. Think about highlighting the key problems it solves and the unique value it offers. Use keywords strategically to improve search visibility.
  • Showcase with demo videos and screenshots: Visuals speak volumes! Upload engaging demo videos and high-quality screenshots to give potential users a clear understanding of your server in action. A picture is worth a thousand words, and a video even more!
  • Highlight key features and use cases: Don't make users guess – spell out the most important features and use cases of your MCP server. This helps them quickly determine if it's the right fit for their needs. Think about using bullet points or numbered lists to make this information easily digestible.
  • Tailor installation guides for Cursor users: Make the onboarding process seamless by providing installation guides specifically tailored for Cursor users. Clear, concise instructions can significantly reduce friction and increase adoption.

💼 Monetization (Optional):

  • Mark as premium or freemium: If you offer a premium version of your server or a freemium model, you can clearly indicate this in your listing. This allows you to attract users who are willing to pay for enhanced features and support your ongoing development efforts.
  • Add pricing information: Transparency is key. Display your pricing clearly so potential users know exactly what to expect. This can save time and avoid misunderstandings.
  • Link to support and documentation: Provide easy access to your support channels and comprehensive documentation. This is crucial for user satisfaction and can help reduce support requests.
  • Drive traffic to your paid offerings: Use your listing to direct traffic to your website or other platforms where users can purchase your premium offerings. This is a great way to convert interest into revenue.

🔰 Verification Badge:

  • Get a "Verified" badge on your listing: A verification badge adds a layer of credibility and trust to your listing. It assures users that your server is legitimate and well-maintained.
  • Stand out from unverified repositories: In a sea of listings, a verified badge helps you stand out from the crowd and grab attention.
  • Build trust with potential users: Trust is essential for adoption. A verified badge signals to users that you are a serious developer committed to providing a high-quality product.
