high comment karma and old account age is everything, also just comment normaly in popular subs before promoting anything otherwise u get banned quickly.

I guess if we are talking about the new account here then commenting on popular subs get you banned quicker than even spamming

Account age helps a bit, but consistent activity matters more. An account that posts naturally, joins discussions, and earns karma across different subreddits usually looks far more trustworthy than one that only drops links.

How long do you think its take to growth organically an healthly account?
 
For me, the biggest trust signals on Reddit are account age, consistent activity, and good comment karma. People trust accounts that contribute value over time rather than only posting links.

In my experience, people trust accounts that consistently add value to discussion rather than focus on self promotion
 
The strongest trust signals are consistent helpful contributions, genuine engagement in communities, account age, and a history of adding value rather than focusing primarily on promotion.
 
Honestly, it's pretty simple, look like a real user. Focus on account age, consistent activity, genuine comments, post history, and earning karma naturally. People trust accounts that contribute value instead of only dropping links.
 
can i ask what product or service you promote on reddit?
 
i would say that sharing real experiences and opinions tends to create trust than trying to sound like an expert on everything.
 
Age of the account, open posts/comments history, real photos uploaded. You probably want to either buy used account or groom your own, but it takes a bit of time. I'd say half a year of activity is a goal.

half a year? is this joke?
 
what i think as a beginner accounts that regularly engage with communities and contribute useful information seems more trustworthy than those show up occasionally.
 
A normal user asks questions, shares opinions, and engages with others. Find niche subreddits, join the conversations, and add real value without trying to promote anything. The karma will follow naturally
 
Just created 1,000 new accounts and some have been blocked immediately probably due to email issues. It's also important to use a bunch of different subnets. I used 8 for this first experiment, probably going to use more next time. Good luck!
 
An authentic Reddit account usually has aged history, steady activity, meaningful comments, diverse subreddit participation, and positive karma earned naturally through value first contributions.
 
The usual stuff like account age and Karma goes a long way. Usually it's those and a lot of other factors that make the account look like an actual person uses it. A decent post history, participation in discussions, and not always promoting something especially when it looks shoehorned into a conversation.
General rule is just make an account someone would actually want to interact with, not just a profile that exists to drive traffic.
