# How to create community in Voty?

Recently, I came across a new DAO voting tool that not many people have used yet. I would like to share my experience with everyone.

One of my friends recommended this tool in February this year, and it's still in alpha testing.

After studying it, I found that it has some differences with the commonly used snapshot.

The structure of this voting site is very simple, **"community-workgroup-proposal"**, which means you need to create a community first.

Considering that there are still many web3 novices, I will tell you how to create a community.

Step one, connect your wallet;
==============================

![connect wallet](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/e64969d7b99f72b001b7c851f636fd3519f22df75002676631969f8ff3d55fdf.png)

connect wallet

Step two, click "+community";
=============================

![+ community](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/f4aa281dc1d2c68b8f6a6620a06ae12f59714d1a54d3d553081c502c7e92634a.png)

\+ community

Step three, select a .bit account.
==================================

Many users get stuck at this step because Voty only supports creating communities using .bit accounts. Other accounts such as .eth are not supported;

select a .bit account

Step four, fill in the basic information.
=========================================

You can modify these information after creating the community, and you can leave information about your social network blank for now;

Step five, preview;

Step six, submit and sign
=========================

submit

sign

This community has been created. My community is DOG DAO

You can have a look

![finish](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/e22df23e8dbe93c3c0b09b485a95da12211df2dc068aaf3d9dea4e9ab4ea3c15.png)

finish

You can now create workgroups in the community, where you can propose and vote on various topics with the other members. If you're interested, I can create a tutorial on how to create a workgroup and how to vote.
