Interest does not seem to do much in Lost Ark other than show how popular your stronghold is. When you press Alt + G, you can view other players' stronghold levels. Those with higher Interest levels are displayed first.

Interest seems to be a way to brag and show off your island. The more Interest you have, the more likely other players will find your stronghold and increase your Interest level. So, make your stronghold looks nice for visitors!
