Tips to Create a Successful Clan





Hey Clashers, I'm sure we've seen the Quantum's Web, King's Rock, Mega Empire and all the other famous clans that are the top of the pack. And I'm sure we have all aspired to join them at some point or other. We, probably, all created a clan at one point, gave it an awesome, a killer description, before abandoning it for lack of members. I'm here to inform you that, that is no longer needed! I am here to tell you, or at least lead (get the pun) you in the right direction for creating a long-lasting, successful clan.
First of all, why do you want to start the clan? Are you in it for satisfying feeling that you get for "ruling" other people? If so, STOP NOW. Don't waste your gold. This is one of the biggest failures I see when I look through the Global Chat. So many people want to people to join a clan that the creator has no interest in leading, and they're doing it for the little fame that get in making the clan. 

If you're interested in creating a successful clan read on, and have every intention of being a mature leader, then please, continue. 



Things you Should NOT Do


  1. Under no circumstances should you over free elder or co-leader for you clan to someone you just recruited. You don't want a clan full of power-hungry, unloyal people. 
  2. Don't get too frustrated by people leaving and joining your clan. Relax, take a step back and then continue to recruit. If someone leaves, that's fine. Don't give up.
  3. Do not patronize people. They're just people that you don't know, and have no effect on you whatsoever in life.
  4. Finally, don't spam on Global to get people to join your clan. As a leader, you want to show that you're strong, mature, and a good leader. By spamming you show that you are just a needy five year old who demands attention. 

Things you SHOULD Do
  1. Have some requirements for your clan and follow them. If you want people who are level 60+ then recruit people who are level 60 are higher. 
  2. Recruit members slowly. While I'm sure we're all eager for war, don't rush right into it without a plan. An organized leader is a successful leader. Plus, there are consequences for everything. Someone might leave during the middle of the war.
  3. Be active in the chat. I've seen clans who had a near perfect war record (winning wars) but they never communicated amongst themselves on the in-game chat. Get to know one another, build trust. Ask about their hobbies, where they live, their favorite color, their favorite game (excluding Clash of Clans) Anything you want as long as it remains within the boundaries of the Privacy Agreement. 
  4. Be helpful and supportive. Never rage at someone in the game. This will make the other player angry and upset as well and it may affect other clan-mates and them people may leave your clan. 
  5. Stand strong about your rules, but be gentle when punishing. Make sure to be an enjoyable person to be around and fun. 
  6. Be a just leader. If you have an idea but other people in your clan may not share it, ask them their opinions on the matter. If they suggest something else that others agree with more than yours, then switch to their ideas. Consult your clan before making a decision. Do not try to be a dictator or rule with an iron fist. 
  7. Finally, it is advised to have some sort of alternative mean of communication. This alternate method of communication can be used to get to know your clan outside of Clash of Clans, as well as coordinate attacks and plans for wars and other clan business. Kik is a recommended app as it is free and no personal information is given. 




The following are guidelines to keep in mind when creating a clan, not leading one like the earlier text mentioned. 

To begin with, chose a unique name. If you search the name "fire" in the search clans function you will find over a hundred clans with the name "fire". While you can change the description of your clan and the banner, you cannot change the name of the clan. Make sure you chose something you're happy with before buying it. 

Another thing to keep in mind is to chose a shield that suits your clan, make sure it also look professional. While you can go back and change this, it is best to do it now rather than have to worry about it later. SuperCell has given you a plethora of choices, feel free to take your time when picking one. 


Once you decide on a clan, make sure to pick a flag that stands out a bit. You can change the banner at any time, but it's easier to chose it now and pick one you'll stick with, then change it every 15 minutes (exaggeration.)

Just simple things like choosing a good name or an awesome flag can differentiate your clan from being successful and being unsuccessful. And just for making it this far in the guide, I'll show you one of the best places to hang out in the game, is the forums. I'll be making a detailed post about this later, so stay tuned for that!
