Reddit: 5 million impressions using Fiverr

Kinda old story, from April, but there are some new (to me at least) details on how they did it.

Thanks for the share. Will read in more depth later. Am a big fan of Reddit marketing.

Just finished reading the article. Best quote:

"Then I went to Fiverr.com and bought every UpVote package that was offered. Total cost: $35. Two hours later I came back to check the results. We were number one with over 500 comments already."

Interesting thing about buying upvotes -- after a while, they tend to stop registering. People only have so many accounts and IPs. If you have just one supplier or are supplying them all yourself, it's hard to buy/shill more than a few hundred. The Reddit algorithm starts detecting them and filtering out. If you buy "every upvote package offered" from a bunch of different sellers, you could probably get like 10x or even 20x, 30x the upvotes.

Definitely will test this out. Great post.

EXACTLY

I laugh when people post, made $10k today and put up a nice screen shot. Then later you find their expenses for the day was $9,950.

Turnover is vanity, profit is sanity.

But it would have been nice to see how much profit they'd cleared from this.
