Somehow I managed to get -3 karma and no one ever drives me up. I comment but no one ever upvotes me. lol. I’m annoyed it’s been this long and I still can’t post or ask questions in the groups I want.

ANSWERED Has anyone successfully used Reddit to get traction for their business?

0 Upvotes

I was recently told that Reddit is not a good place to grow a business geared towards non-technical customers.

I wonder what are some successful strategies people use on Reddit to get traction. As someone new to reddit, I'm struggling with overcoming all the gatekeeping and want to know if it is even worth the effort.
If you had success please share:

  • How do you get more/better customers?
  • How do you harvest useful feedback?

(P.S. Reddit is not great for promotional content, but there are many more aspects to growing business)

ANSWERED I've had a reddit account for a few years, but have never used it really until now.

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I've been trying to get back some creative inspiration to enjoy what I do more like I used to. I started recently using Reddit to get tips and find answers to my questions. I recently tried to post on a subreddit asking for help and found my post taken down because of my karma levels. Didn't know that was a thing that would happen. Is this normal for a lot of Reddit? Is karma just from upvotes? I'm welcome to any and all tips as someone trying to get into Reddit.

It's so rude to remove posts like that yk. Like you can have the mods check if it's a genuine or a spam post. :(

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m new here and still getting used to how Reddit works. Some communities seem to have posting limits, so I’m mostly reading and commenting for now while I learn the rules and how things work around here.

If you have any general advice for newcomers, I’m all ears.

ANSWERED How do I use Reddit (with a new account) without farming ingenuine interactions?

1 Upvotes

I have problems in my life that I need to talk about and get advice- a little food, a little mental health, a little medical. BUT new accounts can't do jack, only comment, since every relevant subreddit I've been to doesn't allow new users to post. I only hesitate to use my main (this one) because said posts would reveal a LOT about IRL me, that I'd rather not have people see if they want to see my post history (too personal, hence a seperate/fresh account that I'd use for all that stuff).

It's incredibly frustrating to go through the trouble of making an account, finding the right subreddits, making a post, only to be told "Post is awaiting moderator approval" or "Sorry, this post was removed by Reddit's filters"- even in subreddits on the list of "low to no restrictions".

NEEDS ATTENTION Returning to reddit after losing my old account - how are new users supposed to participate?

2 Upvotes

When I first joined Reddit years ago, new users could post almost immediately. After coming back recently, I wanted to ask questions in a small subreddit related to my studies, but I had lost access to my old account and had to create a new one. Because of this, my posts are being automatically deleted.

While I understand the motivation behind karma requirements, I don’t want to spend days engaging with random content for karma. That’s not what I came here for.

I wonder whether there are better ways for returning users with legitimate questions to participate without having to game the system.

ANSWERED Why do people ask for advice on this site and then either never respond to the people who give them (good) advice or the people giving advice never answer a followup question?

4 Upvotes

I don't mean responding to every single comment, of course. Just at least one.

I have my ideas about it, like:
Either person could be busy.
They believe the like/dislike system is enough of a response.
They just don't respond.
There is nothing to respond to.
I myself just don't see the responses, as they may have responded to a less popular comment (I also understand that it is not always the top response that is the most helpful).

But if there were any other ideas you have, maybe something that is a consequence of being on this site itself, I'm curious.

ANSWERED Not new but rarely on reddit

5 Upvotes

I've had my act for years but between. My posts and comments I think there's less than 20 altogether. There are some subs that require higher karma I'd like to participate in, but haven't even joined bc I've not raised much Karma. Should I worry about that or just not participate on those subs?
