# The front door to your community

> A link in bio for Discord, Slack and meetup community builders: the invite on top, events that expire, a newsletter, memberships and sponsor links.

Your community lives in Discord or Slack, meets at events and talks in a newsletter. Give newcomers one door, with the invite in plain sight.

## The invite first

Put the Discord, Slack or Circle invite at the top, highlighted, with a line on what the community is for. Under it, the newsletter with the [subscribe box](https://makerhandle.com/features/email-subscribers), and the socials row for X, Bluesky, Threads and LinkedIn.

Every click counts in your [analytics](https://makerhandle.com/features/analytics), so you can see which channel brings new members.

## Events that expire

Meetups, AMAs and hackathons are [scheduled links](https://makerhandle.com/features/scheduled-links) to the event page, appearing on announcement day and hiding after the event. A recurring call can have a countdown to the next one. Recordings on YouTube show with the [video and podcast blocks](https://makerhandle.com/features/video-and-podcast).

## Members and sponsors

Paid membership? The [support button](https://makerhandle.com/features/support) points to Patreon, Ko-fi or your membership page, and built-in memberships are opening to makers in stages. Sponsors get a thank-you button with their site's icon, and their clicks are counted.

Free: 5 projects, 50 links, three templates, 100 email subscribers and 7 days of stats, with a small "Built w/ makerhandle" badge. **Pro is $20 a year**: all nine templates, unlimited projects and subscribers, a year of stats, the [contact form](https://makerhandle.com/features/contact-form), your own domain and no badge.
