Subreddit/Source Configuration

For Reddit, you can specify exactly which subreddits to monitor.

Why This Matters

Reddit has thousands of subreddits. Monitoring all of them would flood you with irrelevant leads.

By selecting specific subreddits where your audience hangs out, you get higher quality leads.

Adding Subreddits

Go to Projects → Select your project → Sources tab → Reddit

Click "Add Subreddit" and enter the subreddit name (without the r/).

Posts per day
Engagement (comments, upvotes)
Relevance to your product

Tips for Subreddit Selection

Start narrow, expand later. Begin with 3-5 highly relevant subreddits. Add more once you understand what works.

Mix sizes. Large subreddits (1M+ members) have more posts but more competition. Small subreddits (10-50k) have fewer posts but less noise.

Check the vibe. Some subreddits are more receptive to product mentions than others. Observe before engaging.
