Where new people find creators on ByUs
- Discover: a feed of public posts. The Newest tab is newest first. The Popular tab compares each post against the size of its creator’s audience, so a great post from a small creator can rank well. Nobody can pay to move up.
- Browse: search, categories, rows for each kind of creator, Trending (ranked by how fast creators are growing, not how big they are) and a “New on ByUs” row.
- “Similar creators” on creator pages, which points fans of one creator toward others like them.
Show up in the right places
- Pick your categories in Settings, so you appear in the right Browse rows and filters.
- Post publicly on a rhythm. Only public posts appear on Discover, so a regular public post is your shop window.
- Write titles a stranger would click. “I rewrote this chorus six times. Here’s the version that stuck” beats “Update #12.”
- Use a clear profile photo. It’s what people see first in Browse and on Discover.
Let your fans spread the word
- Every post has a Share button (X, Reddit, copy link, or your phone’s share sheet). Ask members to share the posts they love.
- Members can invite friends with their own link from their dashboard, and your page can show your top referrers.
- Free follows let people keep up with you before they’re ready to pay. A follower is a member who hasn’t joined yet (see the next guide).
Team up with other creators
If you stream, a raid at the end of your stream sends your viewers to another creator who’s live, and they can return the favor. Collaborations and shoutouts with creators whose fans would like your work are one of the fastest ways in front of new people.
