Finding Your Tribe in Niche GroupsFetLife is built around community rather than overt promotion. Start by joining groups that align with your character. For example: Focus on relationship-building to subtly weave your promotional efforts into genuine interactions.

Being Authentic and Subtle in Group DiscussionsGroups are not the place for direct ads; they’re for real engagement. Participate in conversations by posting thoughtful comments or starting discussions to share your personal experiences or ask questions. For example:
– On a rope bondage discussion: “I just did a gorgeous shibari scene the other day-there’s something so calming about it. Use this to share teasers on your profile that align with the group’s interests while remaining mindful of the group’s rules about advertising. – On a kink story: “This reminds me of one of my videos! Instead, embed your promotional efforts into storytelling, value-adding content, and genuine engagement. It’s wild how kink can bring people together.”
