I’m a moderator of a smaller community. I’m posting quality content multiple times a day, and I posted about it in New Communities. The number of subscribers is low but it’s growing steadily.
Could you please give me some advice on growing this community? I don’t want to spam/flood or come off as rude or weird, but I really believe in it and think it would be useful to many people.
Thank you, these are excellent tips! Btw here is the community: https://programming.dev/c/auai (!auai@programming.dev) - I didn’t want to mention it because I didn’t want my post to sound like cheap self-promotion, but I guess I’m a bit too shy in this regard.
The icon and the cover image are terrible, I’m planning to replace them later.
Remember most people are pretty new here and there’s no way for them to find new communities other than purposefully searching by keyword, or stumbling across a mention somewhere. So if it makes sense in context to give yours a shoutout, do it! If it’s relevant to the conversation you’re not spamming anyone, you’re literally helping them navigate.
