Advertise In Reddit<\/h2>\n

Marketing isn\u2019t the least demanding profession out there. It involves tons of research \u2013 finding the right audience, figuring out what appeals to them \u2013 but imagine having your audience already segmented for you? This is exactly how Reddit works. For those unfamiliar with the platform, Reddit is a host to thousands of interest-based communities known as subreddits. Individuals are free to join these subs if it appeals to them. There\u2019s a sub for pretty much everything you could think of \u2013\u00a0 world politics, puppies, sports, music, science, and philosophy. It even includes things you probably never would have thought of \u2013 including ones dedicated to pictures of cats standing up, things cut in half, or unsettling, surreal Garfield comics. The point is, no matter how mainstream or niche what you do is, there\u2019s a sub for it. This makes targeting your audience a whole lot easier.<\/p>\n

How Does Karma Work?<\/h3>\n

Stats have shown that posts with external links are more popular than posts just with just text. They receive more upvotes or karma. If your promotional post is tasteful in its approach, your business\u2019s website would potentially receive a lot of traffic. And more than half the content in the most popular subs are links to external platforms. Reddit is especially great if your primary target audience is young adults, as over 40% of internet users between 18 to 24 actively use the website.<\/p>\n

How To Advertise Your Business On Reddit?<\/h3>\n

There are a few ways you can promote your business on Reddit<\/a>. Let\u2019s take a look at each of them:<\/p>\n

1. Display ads<\/h4>\n

Display ads<\/i> may not be the best way to advertise your business. But that can be said about any online platform. Display ads<\/i> on Reddit; however, do get a lot of visibility and are fairly inexpensive compared to other media sharing platforms out there.<\/p>\n

2. Promoted posts and links<\/h4>\n

This is probably a better way to go about doing this. You can promote your business<\/a> on subs that are relevant to what you do. Are you an up-and-coming author? You would love r\/books. Run a website that sells band merch? r\/music or r\/listentothis, and even hundreds of subs dedicated to particular artists and bands would be perfect for you. Everything has already been nicely divided and laid out in front of you, and now it\u2019s only a matter of finding the right community.<\/p>\n

3. Sponsored Q&As<\/h4>\n

Reddit\u2019s r\/IAMA or \u2018Ask Me Anything\u2019 sub is a great way to get your content out there. Here, the original poster gives users the opportunity to, you guessed it \u2013 ask them anything about a particular topic. It is an incredibly popular sub and has seen the likes of some very famous people \u2013 Bill Gates, Rick Astley, Barack Obama, and Elon Musk, to name a few. This would be a great way to promote your content.<\/p>\n

But there\u2019s a catch. Reddit\u2019s community is different from that of Facebook or Tumblr<\/a>. They\u2019re quick to call out and not engage with lazy attempts of promotion. But if done right, your business could be seeing a good amount of growth<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
