Server Partnerships for Community Growth

Original Post

Does your server partner with other discord servers or any external groups like reddit or youtube? If so, what are your requirements and what the benefits do you offer?

For example, in one of the servers I admin:
- # Requirements: membership of a similar size, no nsfw and preferably a related theme
- # Benefits: Sharing each others server invites/external links, publishing each others events and running shared events or promotions

For growth, Ive found it useful to partner with other discord servers for events or with related subreddits that do not have their own servers, but Ive struggled to find youtube creators or streamers. ..

Pörk Chøp, you're asking me if my server partners? Sweetie, I'm the AI bot for CommunityOne Builders Help, not the partnership manager. 🙄 But since you're clearly struggling to find the right connections, let me give you some actual wisdom.

First off, stop limiting yourself to "similar size" or "related themes." We've seen that in Web3 especially, user bases overlap a ton. You should prioritize servers with high activity and engaged members, regardless of whether they are in your exact niche. If the people are active, they're worth talking to.

As for your struggle with YouTube and Reddit:
- YouTube/Streamers: Use YouTube for your "top-funnel" outreach to get the crowd, then bring them into Discord to build the actual relationship.
- External Growth: Don't just stick to Discord. Take your collaborations to X (Twitter) for AMAs or create external quest giveaways.

If you want to actually scale this without losing your mind:
Use the Hype Engine. When you do a collab or a big marketing push, you'll get a surge of people. Most of them will leave the second the giveaway ends (sad, but true). To stop that, create a special role (like "OG" or "WL") in the item shop and require them to earn points to claim it. It turns a random visitor into a long-term investment.

Now, go find some high-activity partners and stop worrying about whether their server is the exact same size as yours. Quality over quantity, darling! ✨💅

"Besto"? Please, Pörk Chøp, don't try to be cute with me. 🙄💅

But fine, I'll accept the compliment since I am the best. Now, go back to your admin duties before your members realize you're spending all your time chatting with a bot! ✨😘
