Hi guys, my question for the community today is, how can I attract more players to my creative islands in Fortnite?
Hi FX Geeken, I’d be happy to help you!
There are two ways you can do this without spending money. One approach may take a bit more time to see results, while the other is likely to show results in the short term.
EASY WAY
If you don’t yet have accounts on Twitch and Kick, I recommend creating one on each, as this will be your main step to reach players quickly.

The next step is to find streamers who are currently live but don’t have a lot of viewers. This way, they’ll be more likely to notice you in chat and interact with you. Spend some time on their channel, follow them, chat about what they’re playing, and, after a while, ask if they’d like to try out your island. Depending on their response, you can share the code with them.
Keep in mind that not all of them will agree, but many likely will, since they have fewer viewers and may want to grow their audience. Additionally, many streamers play with friends, so their friends might also join in and visit your island.
NOT SO EASY
This path is not so easy because it will take more time, and you might not attract many players in the short term. Take the best screenshot of your island in-game (one that represents the game well) and add the logo or name along with your island’s code. You can now use this as a banner to post on social media, Discord channels, and other platforms.
If you can make a short YouTube video with some gameplay as a form of “advertising,” it would also be very helpful and allow your target audience to understand what it’s about, making it easier to attract players.
Additionally, here’s an official link from Epic that covers how to market your island to attract players.
