Buying reddit members is a good idea ?

Hire someone that knows reddit & google. I'm feeling too lazy to explain the flaws in your plan. Use the BHW search box for more info.

Buying members can lead to your subreddit being banned. A one or two time buy when launching your subreddit to get it past 1k subscribers is fine as long as you use good providers. Don't trust any seller, test & verify them. Many Reddit providers sell garbage that gets flagged.

You want some subscribers so other real users think your sub is active and will join. Inflating your subscriber count with fake accounts does not provide much benefit beyond that. It is more beneficial to create multiple accounts that regularly post & comment. After you build up a good amount of quality content, cross post to subreddits that allow it. Invite users posting in related subreddits to check out your subreddit. In subreddits that don't allow cross posting, post high quality content that is unattributed to your subreddit. Then a few minutes later use another user account to accuse your OP account for stealing content from your subreddit. It will look like typical reddit user drama without causing suspicion that you are secretly driving exposure for your subreddit.

You don't need to link back to your subreddit when posting in other subreddits. Text mentions make you look like a lazy reddit user. Posting text mentions in related subreddits will drive those real users over to your subreddit.

Allowing spammers to post in your subreddit will inflate your subscriber count. Being slow to remove spam encourages more spam bots to post. Too much spam will drive away real users so be do not go overboard.

The subscriber count is less important than many realize. More important to pump out content that is in high demand and use a network of accounts to upvote & comment. Attracting real users is the real goal. They will generate the signals that will deliver search rankings and real users can be monetized. Fake subscribers don't buy stuff.

Hey,

I created my own subreddit a couple days ago, to promote my website (e-commerce) in a post with a link (from another account commenting).
There are already two subreddits competing for the top spot on the SERP with their posts.

I would like one of my posts to become number 1 on the SERP.

I have only 16 members on my subreddit, but I don't care about engagement or whether they are real people. The only reason I’m considering buying members is that maybe Google considers the number of subreddit members when ranking posts on the SERP.

I’m thinking of using microworkers to comment on the post (with a natural delay between comments).

What do you think about buying Reddit subscribers?
How many should I buy per day?
Have you tried this and gotten banned for it?

Can you recommend platforms that can deliver subscribers naturally without getting banned?

Thanks in advance.

You're not gonna be ranked just because the # of members. Who told you that?

But I guess it will look more legitimate and people will start joining. Nobody joins a 3 4 members community.

Yes for sure, people attract people, but do google care about the number of subscribers your subbreddit have to rank your post on the top serp ?

I said that two subreddits were competing for the top spot on the SERP with their posts. And know the subreddit thas has the lowest number of subscribers have his post on the top serp. So i guess google
do not considers the numbers of subscribers a subreddit has to rank a post.
