Reddit - is it a lost cause now?

[tutankamun]

Apparently just five people control 92 of the top 500 Subs alone. There seems to be a massive concentration of power on reddit just in the hands of a view individuals. If this is the case, how viable is reddit for organic traffic and branding.

I mean everyone knows how draconian reddit is when it comes to Moderation. And the user themselves are often nothing more than police dogs themselves, no better aha the mods.

Anyone have any tips here on how to game reddit effectively considering the above that I have personally seen the effects of?

It's been a bad investment for sometime if you are into marketing.
Post with links get removed.
Posts with domain name get removed.
Posts with brand mention get removed.
It's crazy over there.

Reddit is a social experiment gone wrong

Reddit is infested with the woke culture, but it still works to promote your products

Case where I saw it working:
- You have a AI humanizer SAAS
- You find the many reddit threads asking how to humanize ai text
- You post your website brand name, maybe not linked

In terms of going the whole hog and making proxy accounts idk if thats worth the effort.

Reddit wasn't particularly profitable from the get go. Always just imagined the people pursuing the platform had factored that into their strategies which were shaped specifically for Reddit. Anyone diving in might have a hard time, for everyone else already there, not much changes.

Is it true that those that lack any power often criticize those in power?

I bought a domain that is an exact match of a subreddit with 10k members, in an effort to direct users who use that subreddit to use my website instead. I bet there are opportunities for even bigger ideas than this!
Thats how I exercise my power. I do whats within my influence. I leave the bitchin for da bitchers! lol

you wanna tell us reddit traffic is simply entering the subreddit name as domain with no promotion ?

What if you put your link of your site or landing page on your profile and you simplh post without any link ? Someone had experience with this ?

Power mods run the show, but niche subs with active users still have potential

Most use URL shorteners to hide the same target URL on diffrent accounts.
On a single account it should be fine

Maybe it's time to create your own subreddit

You got get round the internet police on reddit

I thing the woke folks that were axed from X, move to Reddit and they are happy !

It's still a great place to work

Reddit banned the spammy competition for you, take your time learning reddit, it is worth it

If you have your own website and you want to promote it, you can always mention its name instead of publish links, it will increase your CTR on Google and mitigate the risks of being banned on Reddit

Reddit still too much crucial but it’s helps to promote products.

Reddit is cancer. It killed real forums and now you have woke *tards who keep invading subreddits. Reddit is the only place where you get called insecure if you don't want your gf to cuddle with other guys

This is why BHW is so important
