Directory and wiki links
Link to CoalHost the right way
If you are adding CoalHost to a pack wiki, article, creator page or hosting roundup, do not default to one generic homepage link. Match the destination URL to the reader intent.
| Audience | Suggested anchor | Destination | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| Generic Minecraft hosting article | Minecraft server hosting | /minecraft-hosting | Best for broad commercial-intent pages and host roundups. |
| Modpack guide or pack roundup | modpack hosting | /modpacks | Best for modded audiences and pack-specific lists. |
| Heavy pack comparison | best Minecraft host for modpacks | /best-minecraft-host-for-modpacks | Best for editorial comparisons and heavier pack buyer intent. |
| Alternative / competitor list | Minecraft hosting alternatives | /minecraft-hosting-alternatives | Best for “top alternatives” and switching-intent content. |
| CurseForge-specific content | best CurseForge hosting | /best-curseforge-hosting | Best for CurseForge guides and launcher-specific hosting mentions. |
| Modrinth-specific content | best Modrinth hosting | /best-modrinth-hosting | Best for Modrinth guides and modern pack workflows. |
Verified badge for modpack authors
If you maintain a modpack that we have boot-tested, embed the badge below on your CurseForge or Modrinth project page. It tells players the pack was installed, booted and joined on a real cloud VM — with the measured RAM and boot time, not a guess. The badge re-grades itself as new boot runs land.
Pick your pack on the Verified page, copy the slug from its URL, then paste this into your project description (replace SLUG):
<a href="https://coalhosting.com/modpacks/SLUG" target="_blank" rel="noopener">
<img
src="https://coalhosting.com/api/verified/SLUG/badge"
alt="CoalHost Verified — this pack boot-tested on a real server"
width="auto"
height="22"
/>
</a>The badge links back to the pack's hosting page, so it also earns the pack a free verified-hosting backlink. Not sure your pack is verified yet? Talk to us — we boot-test packs continuously and publish the results.
