Setting up a Reddit account for business requires a strategic approach:

• Use your personal account: Use Reddit like LinkedIn to build trust - people prefer real people over anonymous accounts
• Use the founder persona: Use the persona with most experience/credibility in your industry
• Add pictures and bio: Add a professional picture and bio that redirects people to your site
• Use existing accounts: Old accounts with karma and age are golden - you can comment 10-30 times a day with minimal risk

With GrowthX, we help you identify the right communities and track keyword mentions automatically.

Finding potential customers on Reddit is all about being in the right conversations at the right time:

• Keyword monitoring: Track mentions of problems your product solves
• Competitor analysis: See where your competitors are mentioned
• Industry subreddits: Be active in communities relevant to your business
• Help-seeking posts: Look for users asking for solutions you provide

GrowthX automates this process by monitoring 1000+ subreddits and alerting you to relevant conversations in real-time.

Staying authentic and valuable is key to avoiding Reddit's spam filters:

• Provide value first: Always lead with helpful advice, not sales pitches
• Build relationships: Engage regularly in communities before promoting anything
• Follow subreddit rules: Read and respect each community's guidelines
• Vary your approach: Don't use the same response templates repeatedly
• Be transparent: Disclose your affiliation when relevant

Pro tip: GrowthX includes authenticity checks to ensure your responses sound natural and avoid spam detection.

• Ask them to DM you: Perfect for extremely moderated subreddits
• Share what worked for you personally: Share your story and specific insights

The key is having a target audience that actively uses Reddit for advice, solutions, or community discussion.

First, confirm if your account got banned by opening your Reddit profile in incognito mode.

Main reasons people get banned:

• Not warming up: Making a new account and posting a bunch immediately
• Posting hyperlinks: Too many direct links trigger spam filters
• Using automation tools: Reddit can detect automated comments
• Fake being a user: People can see your history and report you
• Buying accounts: Most get banned 1-2 weeks later
• Same IP/browser: Creating accounts from banned account locations

Recovery steps:

1. Make a new account on different IP/browser (use phone hotspot or GoLogin)
2. Use a real persona affiliated with your company (founder, expert, etc.)
3. Warm it up over time: Subscribe to subreddits, upvote things, make 1 comment after a few days, build up slowly
4. Don't make 20+ comments per day - spread across multiple accounts instead
5. No hyperlinks - do normal mentions only
6. Make helpful comments and posts

It's like making LinkedIn comments - it's chill. Just don't do anything crazy and you're fine.

If you have an older account: Start making 5 comments a day. Keep ramping up over time. Try to hit 20 comments a week.

If you have a brand new account: Start with 1-2 a day, or 5-10 per week.

Important: Don't go overboard and make 100 comments a day initially. Reddit might flag your account as a spammer. If you slowly ramp up, Reddit will think you're a normal user.

Success stories: We've had accounts make over 1000 comments in a year! Average 80-150 a month. It works.

No. You will have to manually copy and paste the responses to Reddit, no auto-posting.

Why? Reddit's commenting API is a honey trap. We tried it and some accounts got banned. Manually pasting is the most sustainable approach.

Our biggest customer has made over 1k comments in a year with minimal bans/removals using this method.
