I’ve had positive experiences in the Balance Discord, so I’m inclined to direct people who want to learn there.
For one I wouldn't put Balance Discord keywords together with 4k DPS garbage tier FFXIV or whatever's search engine optimized the same way I wouldn't put "too fat for prom" with acai berries or whatever the fat loss trend is. Because like it or not, you'll be eliciting feelings of shame and anxiety with your call to action. Something like Potato to Savage DPS in 5 Mins a Day would make someone more inclined to listen since they're not on the defensive.
