Discord

Discord is a platform that allows for free and easy communication through instant messaging, VoIP, facetime and much more. Besides communication, the platform is also great for creating communities, servers, coding bots and creating interactive channels. When we look at it through an adult experience, there are many different ways in which Discord can help your website grow. Having a discord server is a thing that many businesses and internet celebrities and creators put into practice. Let’s take a look at all the functionalities of Discord and see how it can help you grow your business.

Create servers for communities completely free

If you’re someone who owns an adult website or platform of any kind that does not have any kind of communication options within the platform, then creating a discord server is a great way to make a community out of your website. People love to feel like they belong somewhere, so if you give them a place where they can chat with each other and have fun, then you’ve basically made sure that they will stay loyal to your website. This is especially effective with smaller porn sites and adult businesses that are still on the rise. This kind of intimacy means that the users will have a bigger bond with your website.

So yes, Discord is a great way to promote your growing website to new people where you can create bonds and interaction as people grow more and more fond of your community that you have created. At the same time, Discord can be used to share content with people and get them interested in seeing the full version of the video or whatever it might be that you are trying to promote. We will get into that in a bit. For now, just keep in mind that every success story starts with a beginning. The beginning, in this case, is the fact that you have to make a new server that you will use for community purposes. This will definitely help strengthen the bond you have with your users and they will trust you a lot more as well.

Great for promoting your smaller porn site

Promoting your porn site seems like a silly thing to do through Discord, but it can be incredibly effective for smaller adult platforms. Of course, it can be quite useful for medium to large porn platforms but in a different way. We will explore this as well, but first, we need to look at how smaller adult services can make the most out of this platform. The first thing you should be aware of is that there are so many NSFW adult services that are already using Discord for promotion. With that in mind, you should make your site have a more customized approach to how the discord server looks and what you can do with it.

This can be done through the interface, the channels, the server avatar, descriptions and so much more, but it can also be done with using bots. Getting bots for your discord server is a great way to make it more fun and interactive to be there. This will be very interesting for many people who want to explore their options with you. There are many free bot options out there that will make your server more fun. At the same time, once you’ve set everything up, you can tag entire channels and all people in the server (this can be done using the @everyone tag) and promote anything you want with this method.

Useful for internal communication for bigger porn sites

You can even create a channel for announcements and use this to post all kinds of interesting promotion posts and, at the same time, inform your users with news and even entertain them with new features for your site and even your discord server. But if you’ve already grown your website and you have a huge number of users already, then a discord server won’t be such a good option for that number of people. Instead, what you can use discord for in this scenario is like a business tool for internal communication between team members for free. See it as a free version of the platform Slack if you want to!

Of course, internal communication is much different than the promotional and entertainment material that you will initially have if you’re a smaller porn site, so it might be best to simply create a new discord server in which you will create specific channels and groups that are perfect for internal communication. Also, keep in mind that you should at least have a few dozen people on your team before you start having such a complex communication channel as a discord server. If you’re a small enough team, then you don’t need to use discord for internal communication. You can use something like a Viber or WhatsApp group instead and just save a lot of time you might have otherwise lost.

Messages, video/voice calls, and image uploads

When it comes to exploring Discord functionalities, there is a lot to check out. You can do everything in a straightforward manner, but the most important thing is probably to set the permissions correctly. You should have roles so that there are groups of people who know what they have to do on your discord server. One of the most important things is to have a moderator team that will delete unwanted content before the Discord team detects it and sees that it breaks its rules. Adult content doesn’t break any rules, but illegal content does, so make sure you have someone on that case deleting that foul shit.

After you have set up different roles for different groups of people, you should also look towards creating all the channels for communication. These can be messaging channels and VoIP channels. The messaging channels can be used for text interaction as well as uploading images and giving all users access to said image. In VoIP rooms, things work a bit different since you can’t chat in those, and instead you can just talk and even start a video call if you want to. VoIP and standard channels or rooms work very differently, so make sure that you have gotten to know the app before you start using it and inviting all your users to it as well. This is important so that you don’t run into any issues like not having enough channels or rooms, or even not creating any adequate VoIP or text rooms for people to use.

Available for both PCs and all smartphones

Also, when you’re making all your rooms, make sure that you label every single one of them that will be for adult content with the NSFW tag. Discord has this feature built-in so that people can be warned if they are about to see something explicit. This is just so that you know you’re doing everything by the rules and people under the age of 18 cannot access the content in this room (unless they do so willingly) and that means that you have managed to create a very safe environment for your users. The platform's design is simple and sexy, and you’ll be able to learn everything you need to know about this platform in a very short amount of time. Just start using it and see how much you can pick up that way.

Finally, you should also know that you can use Discord on both your PC through your web browser or through the Desktop application. You can also download discord on your phone, no matter which OS you’re using. Everything works seamlessly on Discord, and the only problems that you might encounter with their services is when their servers are down. This does have a tendency to happen at times since you aren’t renting out servers of your own and you’re using Discord’s services for free instead. Things usually come back online quickly and without most people being affected, but it’s still something you should know. At the end of the day, Discord offers a pretty great service for free, so check it out!
