Reddit ads ARPU

Found this article while searching about reddit ads viability. It's 2 years old but still.. fck me:
https://www.cnbc.com/2019/02/11/reddit-users-are-the-least-valuable-of-any-social-network.html
Twitter ARPU: ~$9.48

Facebook: $7.37

Pinterest: ~$2.80

Snap: $2.09

Reddit: ~$0.30

That does not mean Reddit traffic doesn't convert.

Well.. it does convert.. just really really shitty and you need to be a mastermind marketer with voodoo skills to hide your products as being advertisements.

Yep. Got 2 sales 10 days apart with my last niche on Reddit. Trying a different niche now tho that should be 10-20x the profit. Gonna see how it does.

Absolutely disgusted atm with Reddit traffic - first of all, they convert so fcking bad and secondly - the fuckers use the refund button VERY often for clickbank offers. I pray to god my other venture takes off and if it does then fck Reddit forever!

You're promoting ClickBank offers and still wonder why Reddit traffic doesn't convert for you... yikes.

How to find out when a person is an avid Reddit user - they try to put "yikes" in every sentence to show their superiority while not adding any other useful info other than "just be normal", "think out of the box" and other stuff which sounds smart but at the same time provides no other value than "I am smart and you are stupid".

The fact that you reacted defensively to a comment that wasn't intended to be offensive says a lot about you.
Try relaxing a bit.

My 2 cents on the ARPU data is that it lags well behind similarly large social media platforms because of the fact that a lot of the control rests in the hands of randoms.

As companies, Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, Pinterest, etc. have a significant amount of control as to what goes on their platforms. They control the algorithms, they can place content where they want it. Reddit admins can’t really take that type of control. Adding in another layer, subreddit mods can easily control the content on their subs by deleting anything they don’t want. Reddit likely has no idea who these people are in real life (they’d have the info required to find out if in criminal/civil issues), while every other platform has the people who can remove broad content on their payroll.
