I refuse to use Furaffinity. It's too toxic of a website & it's so unfortunate that it drives a significant amount of traffic in the fandom despite its problems. Are there any decent alternative furry sites for a new artist to start on? What do you recommend? Please list any good websites, thanks. I would appreciate any advice on this matter. If someone was new to the furry community what website would be a good place to submit artwork? What are good alternative furry websites where a new artist can receive decent traffic? Please give out any helpful information you can, thank you for reading.

I'm partial to SoFurry, but it works better for writing than for art.

I'm quite fond of SoFurry, and DeviantArt works well, though it's obviously not aimed specifically at the furry community. For transformation related work, TransFur's worth participating in.

[These stats](https://www.weasyl.com/journal/88430/alexa-ranking-changes-post-fa-adult-ads) are over two years old (anyone have more recent stats?), but back in mid-2015, the furry art gallery visitor rankings as calculated by Alexa were:
1. FurAffinity
2. Inkbunny
3. Weasyl
4. SoFurry
[IB's own stats page](https://inkbunny.net/stats.php) says they had over 24,000 active members in the last day, and almost 47,000 active members in the last week. I'm just a watcher, not an artist, but I like IB and have made it my main furry art site.
Weasyl is good too, but I just checked their stats (at the bottom of the home page), and it currently says "432 users active in the last hour; 3481 users active in the last day." That's a pretty big difference compared to IB. So if you're looking for a site with decent traffic that's not FA, I'd say go with Inkbunny.
