Working with Reddit: How to Drive and Monetize Traffic
Let's start with the basics:
Reddit is a powerhouse platform with 1.2 billion monthly users. It’s constantly buzzing with activity, as the community creates content, shares discoveries, and engages in discussions.
The core audience consists of financially capable adults from the U.S. and EU, who visit the platform multiple times a day. This makes them a prime target for monetization.
What can you promote on Reddit?
🚀 Your own websites
🚀 Telegram channels
🚀 Crypto projects
🚀 Online stores
🚀 Adult content, OnlyFans, and other "spicy" niches
Basically, you can drive traffic to anything, as long as you do it the right way.
1️⃣ How to Work with Content?
Reddit is divided into thousands of subreddits, and the success of a post depends on where and how you publish it.
If a post gains traction and enters recommendations, it can bring huge amounts of organic traffic. However, for that to happen, your content must be:
✔ Relevant to the subreddit
✔ Engaging to the audience
✔ As native as possible to blend in
2️⃣ Technical Aspects of Working with Reddit
➖ Accounts – The older, the better. Ideally, 3000+ post karma and 500+ comment karma.
➖ Proxies – Unique, private, and not previously used on Reddit. Mobile proxies work best.
➖ Content – Must be unique or heavily rewritten to avoid detection.
➖ Posting time – Analyze peak activity and post accordingly. You can also post during low-traffic periods to avoid competition and grab attention more easily.
➖ Rules – Each subreddit has its own rules. Learn them well to avoid bans. Reddit is all about long-term play, and the platform doesn’t give away its users easily.
3️⃣ How to Drive Traffic Efficiently?
The key to success is maximum NATIVENESS.
✅ Follow trends, watch discussions, and create posts/comments that match the audience’s vibe.
✅ Most users drive traffic to Facebook or Instagram, as those platforms have more lenient policies on links.
✅ For adult content, a common strategy is to link your IG/FB in your profile and place offers there.
How to do it?
✔ Optimize your profile – Make it interesting enough for people to check out.
✔ Engage in comments – Subtly mention your links in discussions.
✔ Integrate links natively in your posts. Example:
"I've been wearing these sneakers for two weeks now, and they’re super comfortable. Thinking about getting a new pair. Here’s the link—what do you guys think about this model?"
4️⃣ Tools for Working with Reddit
This part is crucial—without tools, you won’t get far.
Posting, Analysis & Management ⬇
🔹 Postpone.app – Analyzes peak activity by subreddit, schedules posts.
🔹 RedditScheduler – A post scheduler, useful for managing multiple accounts.
🔹 Reddit Enhancement Suite (RES) – Browser extension that improves site navigation.
Tracking & Optimization ⬇
🔹 RedditInsight – Analyzes trending topics and post popularity.
🔹 TrackReddit – Tracks keywords and tags.
Finding Trends ⬇
🔹 SubredditStats
🔹 Google Trends
Content Creation ⬇
🔹 Canva
🔹 ChatGPT (and other AI tools)
Each subreddit has its own set of rules, so take time to study them carefully—this is a long game.
🔹 Example: If you're promoting sports supplements, check out r/Preworkoutsupplements.
🔹 Traffic can also be redirected to Instagram or Facebook, where you continue engaging with the audience. Accumulating traffic on a stable platform is ideal because Reddit is known for deleting posts and banning accounts. For Western traffic, Instagram/Facebook work best, while for Brazil, Telegram is more effective.
Final Thoughts
✅ Reddit is a goldmine, but it requires a smart approach.
✅ It’s all about organic growth—you can’t just buy ads and expect results.
