Hello everyone. And welcome back to another tutorial video today.
I'm going to be showing you guys how to boost a server within discord.
So boosting a server, uh, is a paid feature, uh,
via either a nitro subscription, which you can do a little cheaper,
or you can boost it for like a monthly fee of like five bucks per month.
So what you're going to want to do is go to the discord settings.
So open up discord login, go to the gear icon in the lower left-hand corner,
just navigate over to user settings. And then under user settings,
you want to go here where you see server boosts. Now,
what does boosting a server do? Um, it does a couple of things. Actually.
It gives you a nice little pink diamond icon.
Next to your name within the server gives you a nice profile badge and exclusive
role also gives the server.
It gives more custom emojis for that individual server gives you better
audio quality for voice channels and for the go live feature within discord.
And then it gives you bigger upload sizes for all server members.
So there are different benefits and there are some things that I think are
pretty neat as far as the improved audio quality, the emoji stuff,
as well as the upload file size. So once you're here,
go to where you see something that says discord nitro, right above boost,
basically discord nitro is a subscription. Now,
if you are a nitro subscriber, you don't automatically,
they get the ability to just boost any server that you want. Right? Uh,
nitro allows you to have a discount on purchases,
a boost for a server. So, uh, you'll see here in a minute,
when I go to boost a server, it will show me, Hey,
are you sure you don't want to just subscribe to nitro?
So this is another way of supporting discord as well.
So now navigate over to the server that you're wanting to boost.
So I've navigated to that server here. And then in the upper left hand corner,
where you see that server there, just click on the dropdown menu.
It doesn't matter what server you're on so I can choose another server.
So let's just say this server here, I can just hit the drop down menu here.
And then where it says server boost, which is the first option,
click on that option there. Now it's going to tell you,
there are three levels currently of perks for boosting a server
level. One gets you, these perks level two gets you these and level three,
which is the highest tier at the moment gets you these. So basically it's just,
again, uh, increased select for level two. The audio increases even more.
You get even more emojis, you get a server banner, uh,
the upload file goes up even larger,
and then you're go live streams increased to 10 80 P and then you can see the
other way, tier four level three.
So what you're going to want to do is click the blue boost,
this server option here, or you can gift nitro, uh, to that,
and then boost the server that way as well.
But if we click the blue boost server button or blue boost, this server button,
you can do this here.
Now you can increase the amount of server boosts that you want.
So let's say we want to boost the server four different times.
That's going to total out to be 20 bucks, right?
So it's five bucks each per month, right? So you can see here. If we go to one,
it's going to be four 99 per month.
That is a subscription that you will need to cancel upon deciding that you no
longer want to boost that server. Once you've done that,
you click the blue continue button here. It tells you what you're getting.
And then what you'll do is it'll say upgrade to nitro.
So boost at a better price with discord nitro. Again, it's trying to,
up-sale you to subscribe to their nitro service, just go to continue to boost.
And then as you can see here, it'll give you a payment option,
dropdown menu for you to select how you want to pay for the boost.
Go ahead and agree to that.
And then go ahead and go to the green purchase button here. Now,
once you've boosted a server,
you will then see over here on the right-hand side next to your username,
you will then see that pink diamond icon next to your name,
showing that you did boost the server. So in closing,
are there benefits to boosting a server? Sure. There are.
Does it mean that it's necessary? No, it's not. Now there are certain servers,
larger discord servers that are, you know, basically pay to play.
Has people have to pay to get in. Maybe it's beneficial for you to have the, uh,
you know, larger upload limit, the more emojis, uh,
the ability to improve audio quality,
if you're recording podcasts or things like that.
So there are definitely increased things that you can do,
but I don't think it's a necessity for most people,
but if you're wanting to boost, you can do it this way.
Now there are workarounds to boost servers for free.
You can go ahead and subscribe to like for the first month boost a server for a
little while. Again, there's a lot of shady ways of doing it.
I recommend if you're going to boost a server, just do it the proper way.
