Reddit 101 or how to get Reddit traffic for noobs.
 

Reddit has over one billion pageviews a month, and the front page post can receive over 40 000uv in a matter of a few hours. So you just have to get to the front page of the Reddit and get thousands of visits, piece of cake, right?

Wrong. Reddit has one of the pickiest audiences in the world of social bookmarking. Your post will more likely get downvoted then upvoted. You need to have excellent content, even more, you need to have the content redditors think is excellent. How do you know that? You don?t, you can spend years on reddit and you still won?t be able to get the perfec t post to hit the front page. And you may get your second post to get thousands of upvotes.
The question is ? how to get the traffic? You can post anything you want, depending on individual subreddit rules. Subreddits are smaller fractions of Reddit with specific themes: nsfw, porn, wtf etc. Every one has different regulations and moderators. You can?t start posting right away; in the beginning you will have a cool off period between posts and comments, usually ten minutes.
You can?t just pick a subreddit and start spamming there. If you get your link to pass the spam filter, you will get some traffic, but you will be downvoted soon. If you keep spamming, you can get banned, but you can create another profile quite easily, they don?t even require email confirmation. However, you can get your IP banned, as well as your site?s link if you are persistent.
The right and much more difficult way is to create your own subreddit. Here is how you do it.
First click create new subreddit button on the front page

Then fill in the information you need, here is an example.

Now you have your own subreddit. The address of this one is http://www.reddit.com/r/Ublacklist/
Then you start posting, here you are the boss and you can?t get banned. Exept you overdo it and someone reports you to reddit. So try and get some links other then your own.
Now you get people to notice your subreddit. You can get the button to your site, send mail to other users inviting them to post on your subreddit and get similar subreddits to place links to your subreddit on their pages.

Thanks for the info, but I'm not seeing the option to create your own subreddit anywhere. I have a fairly new account there, so maybe that's why.

Thanks ...

Yea, You have to have so much Karma before you can build your own subreddit. I can't remember how much. Like 100 or something like that.

This should be: Reddit is full of overly-liberal art students who are broke as fuck and want everything for free+use adblock.Try to post a story about how your brother and his boyfriend helped a cat and you get front page

Bullshit thread. Reddit is for broke ass college students who spend their time posting naked pics of the neighbor, kids and their own poo.

Anyone following the Op's advice will find it is time wasted. Prolly one of reddit's lame ass mods trying to pimp gfy.
:321GFY Reddit

Of course the OP has a content locker scam running in the sig.

You sure wasted a lot of time on checking my background.
It's not a scam, you need to use a content lock to get a content lock.
Me a reddit mod.? Now, you must be retarded. Sorry to put it so bluntly.

I've created this account like week ago. And I had the option to create subreddit the same moment.
You should try the front page, and you ought to see the button there. Maybe I'm wrong.

This is front page on reddit : http://imgur.com/WlC0pVU
So fucking funny,original .... NOT

As I said earlier, they have some stupid sense of humor and anything else for that matter. So yes, the pics with cats and old guys with purple beard go pretty well there.
But traffic is traffic, no matter how many dumb posts you have to look through.
Speaking of traffic, I don't know how well this sort of traffic will work for you.
I do know it's great for ppc programs.

:1orglaugh
So true! You see the same story on yahoo news an hour later.

It seems many redditors view people that pay for porn or don't use ad-block as stupid.

this kind of tip is useles, it will be deprecated when it's disclosed, keep this for yourself.

Reddit traffic SUCKS. 85% fucking bounce rate! I get better retention from Sex.com for cryin' out loud.

I have three active subreddits and a reddit "score" of 525, anyone have any idea of why, whenever it try to create a new subreddit, it automatically gets banned instantly?

Maybe you are posting some links they have banned or they qualify your subreddits as "advertising" or there may be a rule against creating more than three reddits..
You never know with this site.
