I have started looking at Reddit more from a traffic and brand perspective rather than just links. For people using Reddit regularly, are you seeing visitors and conversions that make the effort worthwhile?
Is Reddit traffic becoming more valuable than the actual backlink?

to me i believe reddit is even better that the actual backlink because people will have more trust in you on reddit but a backlink is like an option they can decide to just view your site and leave immediately

Yeah, you can find services for all of these. Just make sure they provide genuinely unique referring domains and not the same sites reused across different orders. For PBNs especially, I’d also check the domain metrics and indexing before placing an order.

Yes.
You need to have your link on all major social media sites.
Reddit can even be better if the reddit page is highly ranked in google.

Yes, I think the traffic and brand exposure can be more valuable than the backlink itself. If the discussion is relevant and brings targeted visitors who actually convert, that's a much better result than just getting a link.

Yeah, definitely. Reddit traffic can be pretty solid when you actually contribute instead of dropping links everywhere. I have seen fewer clicks than other platforms, but the visitors tend to be more targeted and that can mean better conversions.

Yes the effort is worthwhile because if you are viewed as an authority your potential audience and buyers will come to you and you to them.

According to me, Reddit can also help you learn what people are interested in. Their comments and questions can give you ideas about what to improve or promote.
