Yaaaaaaaaay!
So the server's been growing for around a month + 2 weeks. We have 3100 members. Here are most of the total invite stats, with some commentary below for context.
DISBOARD: We've been using this the entire time we've advertised. We bump every 2 hours and use strong tags, and we are rated.
Server Posting: We've been using this the entire time we've advertised. We post on a variety of servers, some of which have been CallMeCarson's Discord Cult, Sound's World, AYS, SPC, Discord Emoji & Servers, and many many more.
Discordservers.me: This is a premium membership which we've been using almost since the beginning of our growth. The premium cost $15 per month. The joins come passively and don't require you to do anything other than wait.
Bump Bots: These are all premiums coming from the collective joins of Bump Central, DSC, Open Bump, Liam, and some from ServerMate and a few from Partner Bot. Some of the premiums came late. If I had all premiums since the beginning the total may have been close to double.
DiscordSL: We've had DiscordSL's autobump for a while. It's only $10 per month, so unless you can't spend any money at all, it's a decent choice.
Reddit: Free. On and off reddit posting. If we had posted every day our joins from it would probably be nearly twice this much.
Giveaway Ping: From Shrek's Swamp and Open Advertisements. These were expensive, and don't guarantee member engagement, so I wouldn't recommend them unless you need a high member count.
Discordbots.com/servers & Discordlisting.me: This one pertains to the combined efforts of Discordbots.com/servers and Discordlisting.me premium. They both have given me 50+ members so far.
SPC: This consists of being a part of Sc0rpi0n's alliance combined with the paid shoutout w/ other ping and one other purchase that I made from SPC. The alliance was free and brought me over 100 joins.
EMPIRE: This consists of the combined efforts of paying for a spotlight at EMPIRE and being a part of the EMPIRE alliance.
What I don't recommend
Stay away from anyone selling you everyone pings on their servers. These do not work. I have tried these with 4 different servers. You will be losing a lot of money with these deals and gain little.
Highly recommended paid services
If you can spend money, use Discordservers.me and DiscordSL. You can get a lot of joins from these two for a combined price of just $25.
Free Stuff
Posting constantly and relentlessly on ad servers + DISBOARD + Reddit + DiscordSL will grow your server very quickly and for free.
