My ultimate guide for Reddit Accounts as of September 2026

Advertise on BHW
if accounts have no activity for 2-3 months and then get suspended, reddit prob has inactivity flags on old accs. also seen this when the ip pool got burned from other profiles. thats why op is right about asking provider for different subnets per profile, distributes the risk. if all 5 were using same subnet thats likely your issue
 
nice guide man. keep static isp proxies for at least 3-7 days to avoid rotation flags. adspower works solid but the key is actually your email + phone setup more than the proxy, ive seen people burn accounts by rotating emails too much even with clean ips

are you posting any links? And if yes, are those getting removed?

I did at first, but then stopped. Found out that if you post a specific link, not sure whether this is just with the GitHub, but I did post some GitHub links at first, the comments containing the links were always removed, I noticed this since I test a lot of thing on few of my subreddits. Also, if you are a moderator, you can reinstate that comment which contains the link, however, you can not do that on other subreddits which you don't own. SO to answer your question, I am not putting links anymore until I find out which specific links/ format of those links are restricted.

Yes, 100%, I noticed this right away. Some providers don't care about distributing IPs from different subnets, but some are more willing, however, noticed this with bigger brands in the market which offers a variety of different locations and huge IP pools. Also, if you are choosing dedicated ISP proxies, then I guess the providers are more willing to distribute IPs due to the pricing of the proxies

Which provider you're using for proxies?

Using multiple providers proxies and currently in a testing phase which providers proxies has the best performance and overall experience. I will not mention any names at the moment, because I don't want to look like I am promoting some provider proxies. I hope you understand

The same email can also trigger a flag from Reddit, I had an experience when one of my account was banned, I then created a new account with the same email and the account got banned in a few hours without a single comment/thread, so I knew that it had to be the email that caused another ban. Also, while I do agree with the phone numbers, because I mentioned earlier in my thread, with some EU countries, there is not even an option to add the phone number to the reddit account, for email yes, you can add the phone number, but for reddit, only some countries has that option, not sure why that is yet, but I am researching it lol

I have a provider which allows sticky sessions for atleast 90 minutes do you think we can work with that and how much does your whole setup cost? Including proxies etc
Click to expand...
I don't think this would be viable as reddit may still see the user as "traveling a lot" type. Even if it's 90 minutes, the IP will then rotate to a new one and then what? I simply think that the IPs that are static by nature would be superior in this case, though as I mentioned some of my friends are using those IPs with occasional rotation, but their use cases are in some cases different. As for my setup, for proxies alone it's around $160 and then the Adspower profile is $21 a month. It does add up essentially but I haven't found a better alternative just yet. Also, the pricing of Adspower has changed a bit, they now have cheaper plans if you pay quarterly or yearly but yeah. I'm sure you can work around with less IPs and profiles but since I am doing this for a long time I had to scale

My 5 accounts got banned last week with no activity from last 2-3 months in it. Don't know what will be the reason for it.
Click to expand...
That might be the issue, even though it's totally natural to just stop using an app and delete it from your phone or not use it on pc or whatever for some time, reddit for some reason can flag this as an unusual behavior if let's say you were a really active poster that made 10 or 20 or even more posts/ comments a day and then suddenly stop for a few months. Anything can trigger reddit, really
 
i still doesnt understand how reddit works. i also warm up accounts,, but recently my comment was removed where i asked where you look for proxy shops and i didnt leave any links or names of proxy shops. So there was no hidden ads, but still my comment was removed. But a day later i saw a post about a guy who build saas project and making money from this. he shared his experience of how he was making money from his project, but he also openly posted links to the website of his project there. Why they dont ban this? is it about certain rules in each subreddits or low carma?

Reddit Spam filters. probably this thing. Also, you never know how exactly mods operate, they can reinstate the removed or flagged comment, post and thus you will see the post even if it was marked or flagged by that Reddit Spam filter. That's my guess. Also, in my experience I have also noticed a lot of subreddits are very biased towards specific users even if they are not contributing good stuff. Just random spammy messages, to generate some sort of traffic to their subreddits and most likely behind that spammy account is one and the same person who moderates the subreddit, that's also my guess from what I experienced in a few different subreddits where I tried to promote a brand. Word of advice, create your own subreddit, and then you will see all about those spam filters and other sort of filters that reddit has

Solid write-up, and the persona variety point is what most people miss. One thing I'd add from my own testing: the ProtonMail issue you hit is exactly why email and Reddit should always live in the same browser profile, and if you're buying aged accounts to skip the warm-up grind, pigbam.com is worth a look since their stock tends to come pre-aged with real subreddit history. Also, for anyone running dozens of profiles, verifying fingerprint consistency with Iphey before warming saves a lot of silent bans down the line.

That's what I meant that even within the same profile of antidetect browser proton still catches you that you are doing everything from the same device, IP whatever.

Here's how I go about Reddit accounts in September 2026. Everything I've tried since August using this method is still working well; no accounts have been banned. This is over a month's worth of testing, but I think it can benefit most of you. My setup is pretty simple: MacBook laptop + dedicated ISP proxies. AdsPower is still my go-to antidetect browser. I think any anti-detect browser will work if you correctly set up your device and browser fingerprint on each profile.

Getting Started

Set proxy OS spoofing to your current OS; it should match, though I had good results when I set the profile to imitate Windows 10 (any version). Adjust the fingerprint so that it wouldn't be illogical; by illogical, I mean the browser version being too old or the user agent. Make sure the timezone, location, and language match what's set per IP. You can set those within the profile settings on AdsPower or something similar on another antidetect browser.

Antidetect Setup

First thing after creating a profile, run the session and build out a legit organic profile. What I do, and what I noticed another guide suggested, is to accept various websites' cookies and trackers. Basically, what I do is that I go to websites like Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, YouTube, News portals (particularly those that the IP is located in, so if it's Poland, I go to Poland news outlets, e-shops, wherever cookies are prompted to be accepted. Have a bunch of variety websites accept cookies, and then go to Reddit. You can even create an account on Reddit first and do the cookie acceptance part after; I tried both ways, and these accounts are still in good standing. This matters because most people forget Reddit can also "link" your organic profile to what you do on Reddit, and I believe cookies play a big role here.

Email

Now, with email, I had a good run with ProtonMail; however, this month half of my ProtonMails were restricted due to some "unusual activity" detected from their side. What I mean is, they somehow connected all the accounts to a single device, even though each email was created from a different antidetect profile with different fingerprints and locations. I moved to AtomicMail, Gmail, and Yahoo; so far, these work best. For Gmail and Yahoo, you will need to have a mobile number. As far as I tested, Gmail allowed me to submit a single number for 6 times, and once I tried to create a 7th account with the same phone number, it prompted me that the phone number was already in use, so I had to get a new one, but this works. Similar with Yahoo Mail. You could also try a disposable email for a while until you find a good alternative if you're out of numbers, but remember this is only a temporary workaround. Also, remember to create the email from the same IP as your Reddit account. Better yet, create the email on the same browser profile alongside your Reddit account.

Creating an account

What worked for me was having an EU-based account. Spain, Germany, Poland, Sweden, Latvia, Croatia, etc. I'm not entirely sure why this works right now, but I've noticed how quickly US-based accounts get banned; either they have stricter rules for US people or something, but EU is the way to go right now. (I'm sure a bunch of people will move to EU-based accounts after reading this thread, and Reddit may impose new rules for all of us.) But worth the risk to understand Reddit more and more. For the actual accounts, try to have a persona on Reddit. Each of my accounts has a different persona attached. For example, one is a photographer who will end up in subreddits about photography, cameras, photography apps, etc.; another is a data engineer who will find themselves in engineering subreddits, entrepreneurship, new businesses, SaaS, etc.; another is a proxy enthusiast who likes to build stuff, so proxy subreddits, scraping, etc., and so on. Also, join random subreddits that match their hobbies: gaming, gardening, cooking, racing, skydiving. If you're going for EU-based accounts, as I recommend, join country-specific subreddits and later try to build your reputation there. Variety is key; I noticed that if you only create a dedicated background and only stick to it, it most likely triggers Reddit filters since it looks like the account was made for one purpose only - promote. A regular user has tens, if not hundreds, of subreddits. Also, don't forget that Reddit algorithms show subreddits more relevant to the user, so having more subreddits makes the account look organic, as the hobbies and niches usually rotate over time.

Warming up the accounts

Note that I take a lot of time to warm up the accounts, which may not suit everyone, but it still works for me, so I'm sticking with it. For the first few days (3-4), just browse and upvote from time to time. Open posts, click images or videos, watch some, and scroll and scroll; remember, don't comment yet. Days (5-7): join the subreddits I mentioned earlier that match the account's persona. On day 8 and so on, slowly start commenting; it's best to reply to replies instead of creating posts, so try to reply to existing comments first (sub-commenting) on new posts (sort by Top > Now). For subreddit selection, you can do this either by going to huge subreddits with one moderator and no additional Reddit Addons attached to the subreddit, like bot-bouncer, evasion guard, purge user, etc. (Check Reddit addons to learn what each bot can do; this way, you will avoid mistakes later.) Or go to small subreddits that also have one or two moderators and comment there. Read each subreddit's rules before commenting. I personally built around 200-300 karma just by replying on the AskReddit sub; later, I created a few threads there that got some traffic. Do this until the account is "in good standing"; do it across your chosen subreddits. Brand mention comes way later than you think. I posted my first brand mention after 2 weeks or so, and even then I still do the 1:9 ratio: one brand mention, 9 regular replies/ posts, etc. After a brand mention, don't forget your persona, and stay active in your persona-based subreddits. Don't overdo brand mentions either; they have to fit organically and add value, instead of just appearing as "Get X brand name." Please avoid relying on LLM-based answers. I know a lot of you probably do this: take a screenshot or copy-paste the Reddit thread, comment to any LLM, and the LLM gives you an answer. If you don't understand what the LLM is giving you, just drop it. IT IS VERY EASY TO SPOT SUCH ANSWERS for regular people, so for Reddit filters it's a no-brainer to flag for spam/ AI content, etc. Also, Anthropic introduced AI-generated markings within the text, which makes it way easier for Reddit filters to spot you. Also, while writing, I remembered that some subreddits also have a detect AI add-on; watch out for those.

P.S. This also applies to purchased accounts; if the account has a history of some niche subreddits, don't forget those. Stay active there too, alongside your new "Brand subreddits", same with regular comments and threads, take your time.

Things to remember

  • Do not overdo it with brand mentions and regular replies/comments. Keep it natural; do not spam.
  • Take your time; don't rush the process.
  • Check the add-ons, get acquainted with them, learn to avoid them if possible - https://developers.reddit.com/apps
  • Device/Browser fingerprint matters a lot.
  • Check your CQS in various subreddits; this determines your current CQS (do so after some time, once the account is fully warmed up)
  • Bonus tip: create your own subreddit and learn the ins and outs from it. It gives you way more insights than you think. Moderators in any subreddit can see your account history, even if you hide it. They can also see your contributions to each subreddit that you are active in.

I hope this helps. If you have any questions, kindly let me know, and I will answer them. I am sure that I may have forgotten something while writing this tutorial, so please ask; I'll do my best to help.

good post, thanks, although i have a couple of questions:
how many accounts are you operating at a given time this way?
do you expect your accounts to get banned , and how far along the line?
for creating the gmails do you use just an sms provider?

Right now I have 36 accounts. Of course I expect them to get banned eventually, it's reddit we are talking about :D, I'm not sure when its gonna happen but its gonna happen once more and more different rules/ antibot measures will be in place. Plus I strongly doubt that reddit staff are not reading these forums to toughen up their rules. For creating emails I use adspower phone services, it's built in within the app, cloud phone it's called

i am curious as to why do you use adspower for the number verification instead of some sms verification provider, adspower seems expensive for just a one time code verification.

Why would I use a third party provider when adspower has everything in one place? Profiles for proxies and sms verification. They give you a plan of specific amount of GBs and you can choose from 10 or so countries. I just don't see a reason to use another provider just yet

actually, i have a gypothesis that the best way to warm up accounts is to leave meme in subreddits, i have noticed that this type of comm always get a lot of upvotes, haha. i am checking this right now. but if you need warm up acc in specific subreddits, this method isn`t great
