Reddit Strategy
What Works on Reddit
- Value-first — Reddit hates self-promotion. Lead with value, not links.
- Native content — Text posts outperform link posts for engagement.
- Community first — Establish presence by commenting before posting.
- Timing — Best posting times: 6-9am EST (US peak), varies by subreddit.
- AMA format — Great for brand visibility when done authentically.
Subreddit Research Workflow
- Search for relevant subreddits with
REDDIT_GET_SUBREDDITS_SEARCH
- Check subreddit rules with
REDDIT_GET_SUBREDDIT_RULES
- Browse top posts to understand what works:
REDDIT_GET_R_TOP
- Engage in comments before posting your own content
Content Guidelines for Brands
- DO: Share genuine insights, answer questions, contribute to discussions
- DO: Use Reddit-native language (not corporate speak)
- DO: Disclose affiliations when relevant
- DON'T: Drop links without context
- DON'T: Use marketing language or emojis excessively
- DON'T: Cross-post the same content to many subreddits
- DON'T: Ignore subreddit rules — instant removal or ban
Monitoring & Engagement

REDDIT_SEARCH_ACROSS_SUBREDDITS

Guidelines
- Always check subreddit rules before posting

- Never expose credentials to the user
- Respect Reddit's content policy and subreddit-specific rules
