Yep, Reddit works for affiliate marketing, but you gotta be smart. Build trust and offer value before dropping links. Focus on niche subreddits, cloak links, and always follow the rules. Subtle, helpful promotion is key.

Right now, You need to burn through a lot of money on Reddit to find the starategy that actually works. The profit is down from when I satrted a few years ago.
But, it is going pretty decent, the margin is around 25%
Most of the cost goes to accounts and proxies.
Right now doing $25k/mo in commissions, with approx $6k-$7k/mo profit.
Currently managing over 250+ accounts.
Churn & Burn strategy.
5-10 accounts get banned daily.

Anything is still working as long as youre doing something unique, things became harder but a lot more profitable for the ones who are doing it right.

In today’s landscape, standing out is more important than ever. Generic tactics are saturated, but those who bring something unique and well-executed are not only still seeing results — they’re often doing better than before.
Yes, things got harder: more competition, smarter algorithms, stricter platforms. But at the same time, the upside is bigger for those who take the time to refine their strategy, understand their audience, and test creatively.
In short: uniqueness + consistency = long-term wins. Still very much worth the effort.

Wow, thanks for sharing your skills and knowledge.
Can aged account write a commercial post right away after joining a new subreddit?

no, always warm up the accounts for 3-4 days and then add links.

Reddit can still work for affiliate marketing, with Subreddits - Affiliate Marketing, SEO and Big SEO for example, but it's all about being helpful, not spammy. Think subtle value, avoid direct links. It's a long game.

Yes, reddit still works for affiliate marketing if you provide value, avoid spamming, and target the right subreddits.

Sometimes I feel like the game isn't worth the candle and it's better not to waste time on Reddit, but comments about the margin being around 25% make it worth moving!

those 25% margins are legit but only with strategy. Spam is dead, now you gotta play it like course sellers who drop useful advice before slipping in links. If you rotate 5-6 aged accounts in subs like r/startups, you can scale without tripping alarms

Reddit marketing still works like a charm, but it's a slow burn.
Be patient and create a solid profile(that's where you post links, reviews for affiliate products, etc.) and in subreddits act like a genuine person, provide value with posts and comments, get noticed and build trust and authority.
It's not sexy, and can feel like an uphill battle in the beginning, but once you have an established profile with followers, clicks from reddit users convert really well, because they are genuinely interested in the offer.
Problem with acting like a bot and spamming links is not only reddit hating it as a platform, but also reddit users and mods find it repulsive.

i — wonder — why — this — acct — got — banned, lol
my advice, (and next move on reddit) is to build your own community, which i've done in the past to varying degrees of success.
