Green Flags for an Account to Post Affiliate Links

[tidderautomate]

Do you have a set of criteria for determining whether an account is ready to post affiliate links?

• For cake day, how many months old should the account be?
• What should be the required karma points, including post karma, comment karma, and total karma?
• Regarding CQS, what level of CQS score is necessary?

Should the account already be a member of the target subreddit for at least a month?
How many normal comments or posts should the account have engaged with on the target subreddit?

Is there sometimes a hidden moderator check for blacklisting the domain name you are trying to post?

Do you have a checklist to share?

Domain blacklists are a thing, always cloak or use a redirect before you waste a good post

At least 3 to 5-month old accounts with over 5k karma (comment/post). Also, make sure your previous posts/comments were relevant to the niche you are working on.

Reddit has changed; even one-month-old accounts are enough. The important thing is that they have interacted a lot in the subreddit where you want to post the link. You need to be part of the community, not a stranger.

When you say "post the link" do you submit a post which is a link to your site? Or what? Just links in comments on other's posts?

I partially agree, but yeah that will work!

I buy accounts that are a week old with only 100 comment karma. I interact in the communities for about 10-15 days, and at that point, the doors are wide open in that subreddit. Nowadays, karma and age matter less; the most important thing is to have at least 100 comment karma.

I’ll add, in the subreddits where I work, I know there are still some that require a minimum age and karma, but now they are few.

Well, we have different experiences I guess.
