I started using Discord around three years ago.. The company I freelance with uses it to communicate and keep everyone on the same page.
After about a year or so of using it I started to put the chat on a couple of my websites. I noticed that after doing this my bounce rate reduced significantly… and as you know, the lower your bounce rate, the higher the odds are you will rank in Google. I started noticing other benefits as well….I’m going to share a few here…
1. Community Engagement: It allows your website visitors to interact with your community and each other in real-time, fostering a sense of belonging and encouraging discussions.
2. Instant Support: You can provide immediate support to your website users by offering a chat channel for questions and assistance.
3. Increased Traffic: Discord integration can attract more visitors to your website as they may join to participate in discussions or access exclusive content.
4. Content Promotion: You can share live updates, announcements, and content from your website directly on Discord, driving traffic back to your site.
5. Event Management: Discord can be used to organize and host events, webinars, or virtual conferences, enhancing your website’s functionality.
6. User Retention: Building a strong Discord community can lead to better user retention as members feel connected and engaged with your brand.
7. Feedback and Surveys: You can gather valuable feedback and conduct surveys among your audience on Discord, aiding website improvements.
8. Monetization: Through Discord Nitro or Patreon integrations, you can monetize your community and offer premium content or features.
9. Cross-Platform Reach: Discord’s accessibility on various devices ensures a broader reach for your website’s community.
10. Analytics: Discord offers insights into user engagement and behavior, helping you refine your website strategy.
