Rule Reddit shows that Reddit is a site that can get you thousands and thousands of hits from a single post if you get it right and that gives you a direct route to market and an easy way to find a highly targeted audience.

Put simply, Reddit is potentially just as powerful as Facebook or Twitter and possibly even more so depending on your niche/industry. This is something you can’t afford to ignore. Read on and we’ll look in depth at how Reddit works and how to make the absolute most of this incredibly useful platform. You might just find it’s the ultimate way to have your traffic go viral and to truly explode.

Reddit is a social bookmarking/link sharing site along the lines of Digg or StumbleUpon. More than this though, it’s an aggregated content site where you can find content voted to the top by other users and thereby selected for its popularity among the community. It was founded by Steve Huffman and Alexis Ohanian who were roommates and students at the University of Virginia and subsequently acquired by Conde Nast Publications in 2006. Today it operates as a separate entity but with Advance (Conde Nast’s parent company) as the largest shareholder.

If you were to set up your own Reddit account then, you would be able to select the subjects and categories you were interested in and then Reddit would show you the top content from each of those categories every day. This would likely include blog posts and other external links, alongside ‘self- posts’ which are essentially just text posts that are designed to stimulate discussion within the community. You can also choose to view Subreddits on their own and that way only see the latest and most popular links and discussion for that given subject. That’s why we call it Rule Reddit.
