How Cfx.re Upvotes Work

Cfx.re upvotes are the backbone of FiveM server discovery. Here's how they actually work.

What an upvote is

Any player can upvote a server from its Cfx.re list page, on a cooldown. Each upvote feeds your server's upvotePower — the score the list uses to rank servers.

How upvotePower accumulates

upvotePower is cumulative and decays slowly over time, which is why consistency matters: a steady stream of upvotes keeps your rank up, while a one-off spike fades. There's also a separate burst value for short-term lifts — don't confuse the two.

How it affects ranking

More upvotePower = higher placement = more visibility = more players. Because the top pages get most of the clicks, climbing even a little near the top can meaningfully increase your player count.

Getting more upvotes

• Remind your Discord members to upvote on cooldown — every member counts.
• Make upvoting part of your community culture (events, perks).
• Use a paced campaign to add upvotes naturally and accelerate the climb.
