💡The benefits of using Reddit as part of your traffic marketing strategy💡

📊Reddit is a great forum for the business-minded professional, who wants to use social media for directing traffic to their services in their marketing strategy.

📤If you haven’t heard of Reddit before, it is a platform where user-generated content is posted and then voted on by the readers. The platforms attract almost 164 million unique visitors every month and so isn’t a platform to be ignored.

How can I use Reddit to improve my traffic marketing strategy?

There are two types of post on Reddit:

📌A link post which directs users to a different site

📌A text post hosted in Reddit

The key to being noticed, like anything when it comes to marketing is to think strategically. Our top tips for using Reddit are:

🔎Find the right subreddit — there are thousands of sections on Reddit, and so you want to ensure you are posting the right content in the right place to ensure it is visible to the right people!

🔁Be responsive and provide excellent customer service — respond to comments and thank people for taking the time to comment.

✔️Create a ‘real’ profile — people want to know your profile is genuine and that there is a real person behind the screen.

🔴Don’t spam, provide real value and useful content to get noticed.

Post at quieter times, so your post features higher up in the feed. Search for people talking about your product to help spot marketing opportunities
