How to promote your Discord server
If nobody is joining your new server, the first step is to put it where people look for servers. Here are the free promotion methods, in order.
1. List it on a Discord server site
People looking for servers search by category and tag on listing sites. On DicoPick you log in with Discord, pick your server and write a description, and it appears in the list right away for free.
Choose the right category so your server shows up on the pages people actually visit.
2. Bump to the top with /up
The server list is sorted by most recent bump. Invite the DicoPick bot and type /up every 2 hours to move to the top for free.
Turn on bump reminders in /settings and the bot will tell your channel when you can bump again.
3. Use words people search for
A one-line description like "LoL duo finder for adults · in-house matches every night" works better than "a chill server". Pick tags people really search for, such as game names, voice chat or study. Every tag gets its own page.
4. Climb the rankings with /recommend
Members can recommend your server with /recommend inside Discord, once every 12 hours each. Recommendations put you in the Weekly tab of the rankings.
Set a recommendation reward role in /settings so members who recommend get a role.
5. Share a short link
Create a short link in /settings to share your server page as dicopick.com/s/name.
