Using a rhetorical question at the start will help your to-be-members decide if your server is right for them, it’ll cause readers to think for themselves. The advert also ends with a ‘Join Now!’ CTA, encouraging readers to make the leap and join.
Invite URL
Right now the advert bolsters a stock-standard invite code based invite, as unfortunately Creative Thoughts is not a Discord Partner and is not applicable for a discord.gg vanity url. There are a few ways to get around this and immediately improve the visual aesthetics of the advertisement.
Discord Server Listing/Vanity URL Sites
Using a Discord server listing site such as https://discord.st has many benefits apart from receiving a custom vanity URL. It also allows your Discord server to be seen my thousands of possible members everyday, increasing your monthly member-intake.

Discord Street also posts a fantastic little embed when your server URL is posted.
Custom Domain Based Solution
Another solution for this issue is to purchase a domain name and redirect to your permanent invite link. Creative Thoughts has its own domain which points towards its invite url, but it also takes advantage of <meta> tags in its HTML to create a banner when the link is post.

Just like Discord Street embeds, but bigger and customisable. If you’ve got the knowledge.
If you’d like to know how to do things like this, please follow me and the Discord Street publication here on Medium for an article detailing this.
Banners
As featured above, Creative Thoughts has a banner embedded into their <meta> tags, so that when their URL is posted into Discord, it is shown along with the online members and a short description.
You can visit places like Fiverr to get artwork done for cheap or make your own. Make it colourful, exciting, and eye-catching. Add your vanity link to the image so the viewers have an easy in to your server. Simply attach the image to your advertisement when it comes time to post it in Partner Discords or advertisement Discords along with your advert.
Features List
An important part of your ad is definitely the feature list, as it will take up a solid 50–80% of your ads ‘real estate’, on a readers screen. Ultimately, making sure your server has unique and interesting features will draw in curious members. Here you can list out regular events the server hosts, giveaways, custom bots, among dozens of other things. It’s recommended to keep the list at a maximum of 8–10 items, 6 is usually enough to get the point across, and to have each point a max of 1–2 short sentences. Remember, Discord users have very short attention spans, especially if it’s an ad.

Conclusion

There are plenty of improvements we could make from here. More emoji usage near the top and bottom, strategically using bold, italics, and underline to shift a readers attention, using colours, etc.
