Reddit update destroyed my business, how to proceed now?

[ChocolatePie]

I used Reddit to have FTDs on casinos, but now it's almost impossible to promote casinos on Reddit, they are monitoring the accounts and being very strict, banning everyone, deleting posts and comments, etc.

I tried paid ads, but the results are shameful, like 200 clicks to get 1 sign up, not even an FTD.

What are my options?

Just pay subreddit mods to approve your posts or to promote your casino in the sidebar

Where can I find a subreddit mod available to do that? I searched about it, never found a trustworthy website, marketplace or post on BHW offering it

If you are done with reddit then seo traffic is a viable option that most of gambling affiliates are doing. They are ranking for brand keywords and cross promoting their casino offers.
Example
They build site like
1win-pro.com
Rank for keywords:
1win bonus offer
1win free spins
Google actually rank such sites for casino brand keywords.

But those websites have some authority, no? Do they build links or is it just a matter of exact domain match + cross promotion between my own network of websites? Thank you for your answer

You are going to have to either make a new account, or let the account rest for 2 weeks so that it can reset. This type of thing applies to Instagram aswell where you dont want to get botted followers since it may reduce the reach of the account since Instagram can detect that and then limit the reach. Let the account rest and it should be fine

If paid ads aren't working either, I'd probably look at other traffic sources instead of trying to fight Reddit's filters. Building an audience on X, Telegram, Discord, or SEO can take longer, but it's usually more sustainable than constantly replacing banned Reddit accounts.

You need to deal with subreddit owners.

People who can approve your posts and keep them live even if the account's deleted.

Your costs will go up but your end results might be more beneficial.

I'd focus on diversifying traffic through SEO email lists social media and direct audiences so future platform updates have less impact on the business. That's a tough situation but relying on a single traffic source is always risky.

Reddit changes are a reminder not to depend on a single platform. The channels that survive algorithm updates are usually the ones you own and can reach directly.

One lesson from this is the risk of relying too heavily on a single traffic source. Platforms change policies all the time, so building multiple acquisition channels usually provides more stability when one source suddenly stops performing.

By cross promotion I mean the site is about for example 1win but the affiliate link is whatever casino you are promoting.
Just google
Brand + free spins
Brand + deposit bonus
You will see those sites
Use semrush or ahrefs to find the authority and backlink profile.
I gotta tell you it's a total blackhat doggy dog no holds barred method.
These sites are in constant fight with each other for higher rankings.

It sure does suck when a winning method gets patched, unlucky!

Casino ads are more difficult now because rules are strict. I would test different traffic sources and see which one gives better results.
