Anyone have an aged reddit accou t that could upload for me??? Also know of any upvoting groups, etc
The thing about Reddit is, if you're not an active member of the community they will see any post as spam, unless the post contains truly dynamic content that appeals to a broad demographic. I posted a hoax drone accident video (made it in Sony Vegas) on Reddit and it got a few thousand views. I then converted the video to a gif, it got over 1 million views on Imgur and a little over 300k views on Youtube. Disappointing, since I projected over a million or two given the nature of the video, but I still got paid through licensing and whatnot. I posted it in very niche subs, but also in /r/gifs which is extremely important. I then placed a link in the comment section and it took off.I've found it difficult to get videos upvoted on reddit unless you are really deep in a niche somewhere. Anything that looks like advertisement of your video gets removed or downvoted, or worse thumbs downs on YouTube.

Broad appeal is important. Your content has to be something that many people will genuinely take interest in to get a meaningful amount of views. At the very least, the content should be compelling enough that the people in the subreddit will be compelled to click.
