Everyone talks about commenting on trending Reddit posts to plug your business.

But what if you could create the trending post?

I’m not promising virality. But I am promising this method will:

  • Build your Reddit karma (so you can post in high-traffic subreddits)

  • Earn trust from niche communities

  • And bring in potential customers—without sounding salesy

Here’s the playbook 👇

🧠 Step 1: Let Google do the heavy lifting

Go to Google and type:

[your customer’s problem] site:reddit.com

Examples:

  • how to find clients site:reddit.com

  • best email marketing tips site:reddit.com

Why this works: You’re seeing already-validated, high-engagement Reddit posts ranked by Google’s algorithm. Goldmine.

🔍 Step 2: Analyze the top post

Click the top 2–3 posts and note:

✅ What’s the post format? (Question, story, rant, guide?)
✅ What’s the title? (Copy it, or slightly remix it)
✅ Which subreddit was it posted in?

✍️ Step 3: Make your own version—with a twist

Don’t reinvent the wheel. Reuse the formula, but add your take:

  • Your story

  • A slightly different angle

  • Add more value to the post

At the end, subtly plug your product:


“I made this cool product if you want to check it out, it solves exactly this.”


“I run this company that does XYZ you can check it out here”

No spam. Just vibes.

🔁 Step 4: Repeat across every relevant subreddit

Each post = new eyes on your product.
Each post = karma + trust + potential leads.

The more communities you hit, the higher your chances of a breakout post.

TL;DR: Turn Reddit into a customer machine

✅ Google “[your customer’s problem] site:reddit.com”
✅ Reverse-engineer top-performing posts
✅ Recreate the content with your own spin
✅ Drop your product at the end (gently)
✅ Repeat in every niche subreddit that fits your brand

Well thats pretty much it, I will see you all next time!
