      Bear in mind that reddit links are dofollow, as long as they get upvoted sufficiently

    If you submit something interesting you can get a ton of views. I have seen reddit crash sites just from the amount of visits they send. Also if you submit a quality article you can get views. They basically want links that add value and not spam or self promotion.

    Reddit is an amazing source of traffic. The issue is trying to find the right subreddit for whatever you're trying to promote. Another thing you have to keep in mind...Reddits user base consists of generally witty, sharp people. They don't like blatant promos. If you can make them laugh somehow you're in!

    Reddit traffic is not buyer inclined traffic, reddit users are not buyers usually

    Reddit is one of the best source to get a huge amount of traffic flow. This flow of traffic is genuine and unique. Choose the best subreddit that suits your web link and post it. You will see a stream coming to you to read your content.

    Reddit is a great source to get relevant traffic to your website but you have to post in relevant subreddit. Other wise you have to face a silent bann from reddit mods..

    Me and my team are actually promoting content on reddit, with mixed results.

    The community there is kind of cruel to say the least, and their downvote fingers are trigger-happy.

    Success is dependent on the type of content you're sharing (like what if Pokemon were real) - if it's interesting then it'll garner hundreds of views. If it isn't, then meh, you're not going to get any views.

    Better post it on a related subreddit as well!

    It definitely is addictive and quality of members is really high in some sub categories, don't know if anyone is generating consistent traffic from it though..

    I was always curious if reddit would be a good place for businesses however, specifically web based companies.

    Not sure if it has typical ad platform like other sites, which means, you need to write articles and rely on slow traffic and organic growth of your threads!
