Community-focused survival multiplayer worlds where a small, steady group of players builds, trades and plays together over months.
SMP stands for survival multiplayer. Popularised by long-running YouTube series about groups of friends sharing one world, the term today usually means a smaller, community-driven survival server with a light plugin set and a lot of player interaction.
Compared with large survival networks, SMPs tend to:
Before you join, read how new members are accepted and whether the server expects regular activity. Many ask for a short application and a minimum age. Twists such as Lifesteal often run on SMP-style servers too, so check the other tags for the exact ruleset.
Featured servers are shown first: paid placements and five servers picked every day.

SMP stands for survival multiplayer. Today it usually describes a community-focused survival world with a smaller, regular player base that is often whitelisted or application-based.
Most whitelisted SMPs ask you to apply through their Discord or website with your Minecraft username. Once staff approve the application, your account is added to the whitelist and you can connect with the server address.
