How do I get more members to join my asylum?
Once you have created your asylum and are ready to get members, you should first join [
http://www.insanejournal.com/support/f
aqbrowse.bml?faqid=72
] and post in it [
http://www.insanejournal.com/support/f
aqbrowse.bml?faqid=74
]. Users may be more inclined to join an asylum if there has already been a topic discussed or posted entry, in contrast to an empty journal. In addition, your asylum will appear in the "Recent Asylum Posts" list at [
http://www.insanejournal.com/
], so people will be able to see your asylum.
The best way to get more members is by joining the InsaneJournal Asylum Promotion [
http://asylum_promo.insanejournal.com/
] and posting about your asylum. For a complete list of the InsaneJournal Official Asylums, see [
http://www.insanejournal.com/commun
ity/asylum_promo/4658.html
].
You can also directly invite certain users to have membership/posting access [
http://www.insanejournal.com/support/f
aqbrowse.bml?faqid=80
]. Note, however, not everyone will accept it.
Another tip is to try to customize your asylum [
http://www.insanejournal.com/support/f
aqbrowse.bml?faqcat=customization
]. Some users do judge on the appearance of your asylum, and that can be a factor of their choice to join or not. Simple and easy customization can be done by using the S2 style system [
