You can try here but there is a yearly $100+ fee and post requirement.
There's also swapd but there are also fees.
I'm looking for a dedicated marketplace as well.

I have seen few guys having 0 experience about reddit [ they totally relay on the workers who do their work ] but you knoe they have JR VIP so they can close the deal but we having a lot of experience can't.

Imagine, the guy for whom you work for reddit posting / commenting is on BHW with JR VIP and you know his rates too but he can't even give you $0.6/ upvote despite enjoying $2/upvote
Also for a non link post getting $15 but still arguing to worker to do in $5 and all pressure on worker [ find subreddit , create content , etc ]

Risk of sudden policy action is always there. if rules change or moderation is reported, the subreddit can lose reach or even get restricted, which makes it unstable as an investment.

I would say a large subreddit with little activity makes selling a subreddit so hard.

the most annoying part is explaining that a subreddit is not an Instagram page, because members don’t mean reach if nobody actually talks

I am interested in buying subreddit only with validation

As a beginner, I think one reason is that the real value is not just the number of members. The real value comes from the community, engagement and ongoing participation of its members.

i would say building and maintaining an active community takes time.

I'm thinking of selling my entire subreddit network as I'm looking to move exclusive with a new project shortly, thinking of selling here on BHW


Finding a buyer --

The hardest thing for me is really gauging value & finding buyers who really know how to capitalize

I have a group doing nearly X-million visits per month and has posts doing millions of views. Why would I sell this low? It has immense reach. But the average buyer thinks a mere $1k Is a lot for this..... I'd rather let the group go dead and come back to it later.

But the best place to find I see, is here on BHW. Just get a marketplace thread.

Again, though, gauging price and getting a client who knows how to use subs is everything.

I made a post to try to get an idea of how people think -
https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/h...-buy-users-per-views-niche-increases.1820019/

And as you can see, the results tell it all.

Other locations, with quality buyers, I've not found anything good.

Best Niches --

The best niches I can see right now are OFM & Crypto. People are making loads of money in those spaces. I control 2 active groups where people really are just looking at girls, but they still have far to grow as they only do ~7k-10k visitors daily or something.

Still, I bet these groups would be more valued than the one doing X-million visits per month because it's less 'niche' and easier to 'burn out' vs 'milking the cow' over time for a much longer & steady income with more options.

I own nothing in the crypto space, but I've had crypto clients that generated millions from Reddit. That space is an absolute cash cow. No idea why people want to scam in crypto so much when you can be legit and do so well. It's stupid.

Why People Dont Want them --

Now there's also the reason many wont buy them.

1) It takes time to properly run a large subreddit. It's a job! Moderation of any community over 10k can become a job.

2) You better you have a handful of accounts to be able to sit on that subreddit on mute, in case accounts get banned so you can always retain ownershipbrings. There's a risk of losing the subreddit if you're not active.

It's real. Anyone can lose a sub since there's no true ownership of anything on social media. This limits the market of buyers because you have to have a certain skill set to do this.

I believe Reddit accounts are hard to sell because trust is low, buyers worry about bans or history issues.

i would say the biggest challenge is proving that the subreddit has genuine activity with good value
