Paid Ads: Reddit Ads

Guides Reddit Ads setup, subreddit targeting, and creative best practices. Reddit excels at niche communities and discussion-driven audiences; use when your audience is active in specific subreddits and values authentic, value-first messaging.

When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

Why Reddit

High engagement: ~34 min/session; users seek solutions, not passive scroll
Lower competition: vs Facebook/Instagram for niche audiences
100K+ subreddits: Precise community targeting
Cost: CPM $2–10; CPC $0.50–3.00; min $5/day

Ad Formats

Format	Use
Promoted Posts	Image, video, carousel, text; native to feed
Conversation Ads	Inbox messages; lead gen; direct response
Video Ads	Autoplay; captions supported
Takeover Ads	Homepage; premium; major campaigns

Targeting

Type	Use
Subreddit	Primary; 5–10 relevant subreddits to start; expand by performance
Interests	Broader; interest-based
Lookalike	Based on converters or engagers
Retargeting	Website visitors

Principle: Subreddit targeting is Reddit's strength; choose communities where your audience already discusses relevant topics.

Creative Best Practices

Native feel: Ads must blend with organic content; avoid sales-heavy language
Value-first: Offer genuine value; respect community norms
Authentic: Redditors reject spam-like or inauthentic ads quickly
No clickbait: Transparent; honest headlines
