This is the minimum standard required to be considered for promotion inside Promote Small Creators.

If you do not meet these 3 requirements, your submission will be ignored.

The Goal of This Checklist

We are not here to collect links. We are building a working ecosystem where creators actually grow.

That only works if:

Profiles look real

Content exists

Links work instantly

Anything below that wastes everyone’s time.

Step 1 — Your Channel Must Look Real

If your profile looks unfinished, people will not click.

Required:

Clear profile picture (face, logo, or brand identity)

Written channel description

Not accepted:

Default icons

Empty bio

“Coming soon” channels

Standard to hit:

A stranger must understand in 3 seconds:

What you create

Why they should care

Step 2 — Minimum Content Threshold (3 Pieces)

You are not being promoted based on an idea. You are being promoted based on actual output.

Required:

At least 3 public pieces of content

Accepted formats:

YouTube videos

Twitch past broadcasts

TikTok / Shorts

Podcasts

Music releases

Why this is enforced:

1 post = test

2 posts = inconsistent

3+ = creator

We only promote creators, not experiments.

Step 3 — Zero Friction Access

If your content is not instantly accessible, it fails.

Required:

Public channel

Public content

Working links

Immediate rejection if:

Content is private

Login is required

Links are broken

Reality:

If someone clicks and cannot watch within 2 seconds → they leave.

The Hidden Rule (Most People Miss This)

Even if you pass all 3 steps, you still need to:

Support at least one other creator when you post.

This is not optional.

This is what separates:

Dead promo groups vs

Real growth communities

What This Article Actually Does

This is your filter system.

It:

Removes low-effort creators

Increases engagement quality

Makes your platform trustworthy

Improves conversion (click → watch → subscribe)

Without this, your platform becomes: → spam → link dumping → zero growth

Before You Submit (Final Check)

Confirm all 4:

Profile picture is set

Description explains your content

Minimum 3 posts live

All links work instantly

If one fails → do not submit yet.

Next Step

Once ready:

Post inside the group

Introduce your content clearly

Support another creator immediately

Position This Clearly Everywhere
