Who here is actually making money with reddit? I am convince that 75% of redditors are actually marketers and the other 25 percent gets spammed with offers.
Fed up with Reddit!

We do BUT as a service provider for reddit, but yeah it's harsh and require a lot of patience and money...

That’s a bit exaggerated. While marketing activity on Reddit is real, the majority of users are regular people sharing opinions, hobbies, and experiences.
Some do make money through freelancing, affiliate links, or promoting their own products—but it’s a small fraction overall.
Reddit has strict rules against spam and self-promotion, so overt marketing often gets removed or downvoted quickly.
So yes, money-making happens there, but it’s nowhere near 75%—most users aren’t marketers at all.

I don't make any money with it directly, but I do post my money assets there, either in image forms or with links directly in allowed sub forums. I don't have a lot of new assets completed, but I hope to change that over the next few years, while i build up my account. Walk then run, then be like the Flash, lol
1. join the sub Reddits that you want to sell to,
2. For the first few weeks/months genuinely be helpful in answering questions/giving helpful advice,
3. Then slowly start promoting your website in a helpful way.
4. Give it some time and you will make money!

My account frequently experiences problems, and sometimes I don't know what's causing them

Lol how is this stickied?
It requires diligent research, strategy, execution, and measurement. There are many people killing it. They deserve the spoils.
Everyone else?
Skill issues
If you’re complaining about it instead off trying to fix the issue, then you’re not gonna make it brah
Put your nose down to the grindstone and get to work.
If you don’t hunt, you don’t deserve the spoils.
If you do, the whole world is youre.

Do you find any provider to get your account yet? I have no idea where's the problem as well. That's why I move to FB, but now I'm struggling with both Reddit and FB.

Reddit is an absolute goldmine for Parasite SEO. It's authority in Google's eyes is that strong.
70% of our income comes from Reddit.
Pick any niche and search the top 10 keywords for it; I guarantee Reddit features in at least 3 of them. Often all of them.

It's not a small fraction.
The traffic & ultimately the conversions from Reddit posts & comments is not Reddit traffic anyway, it's Google traffic from ranked keywords with search intent. Reddit is the funnel, nothing more. People making the big money aren't promoting to Reddit users, they're leeching Reddit's authority via parasite. Google --> Reddit --> Lander. It's Google traffic, not Reddit traffic, it just happens to flow through Reddit as a middle man.
Most people asking about using Reddit for promotional purposes simply don't grasp the above.

My experience show the key to Reddit is focusing on 'High-Intent' subreddits where users are actively seeking solutions, rather than broad communities. Success comes from providing genuine technical value first, as the community is highly sensitive to low-effort promotional tactics

Reddit is mostly toxic.
There is a sub Reddit called r/antiwork that has 1.4 MILLION members.
Wow.
Entitlement is high with Redditors.
Not all of course.
BUT.
It has massive authority in Google's eyes and is excellent for parasite SEO purposes.
Besides Google partnered with Reddit for a reason

Would you mind sharing what niche is that? I guess some niches are too saturated on reddit.

I rely on Parasite SEO via Reddit for many niches - frankly the niche doesn't matter.
Competition will vary just like it does in every form of online marketing. Higher competition = higher upvote/account costs.
Spend 10 minutes right now searching top keywords in the niche(s) you are active in on Google. I guarantee plenty of Reddit posts will appear in page one top 10 results. Start there, good luck!

Is there any activity there? I’ve got a few accounts on various platforms like that – Mastodon and a few others – and they’re all dead in the water!
At least Reddit’s still alive, which is why everyone puts up with it.
