A Question For The Redditors Out There

How common do redditors check the posts of their "friends"?

While I don't have any stats for you, I'd start here:reddit.com: search resultsYou may find what you are looking for under here.

Which Redditors (if any) have made an income from their contributions to Reddit?

Depends on your definition of "from their contributions to reddit", but here are a few examples:http://www.reddit.com/user/Shitt... - He paints water colors of reddit posts, comments, and discussions. He built up an audience on reddit I believe he makes a full income from his art and books now.On "Upvoted" (reddit's new podcast), they did a story about /u/smoothmcgroove. He's a full time youtuber and got his start after reddit made some of his videos go viral. Episode 2 - The Story of /u/SmoothMcGroove • /r/UpvotedThere are likely others, but they can be hard to find. Another interest situation is the "ChangeTip" bot that is very active on reddit. It allows redditors to tip each other in bitcoin and other cryptocurrency. I don't think anyone is making a full income, but there are probably a few redditors that have amassed decent sums of bitcoin.

How can people make money through Reddit?

We know that Reddit does not allow Redditors to earn money from it directly. You need to be a bit creative to leverage Reddit into an earning source for yourself.Here’s an Earnings Report shared by a Regular user:You can't put ads on your sub-reddit, you cannot do affiliate marketing so what can you do.Here are 5 techniques / ways you can make money through Reddit:/r/WorkOnline: Of course the number one sub-reddit for finding legitimate opportunities to make a decent income.

Reddit won't let me ask, so... Am I ugly?

Naw man, you aren't ugly, Tbh, you aren't the most physically attractive kid i have ever seen, but there is no way that you are ugly. And as far as that high school goes, the sooner you learn not to care what other people think about you, the better you will be. If they are wearing these brand name clothes you maybe can't afford... you really shouldn't care. It is all overrated, its high school. You want even know those people in 4 years.

So no man, you are not ugly, but that shouldn't matter either way. Have fun, get good grades. Show the rich kids that money is just paper, lol.

Reddit vs 9gag which is better?

I am a redditor, so I am biased. But I will tell you the legend as I know it...

In the beginning there was 4chan.org. It was a magical place where people of all types could come and post *literally* anything they want as long as it wasn't illegal. Many a lulz were to be had with 4chan, but soon, 4chan became dark. The 4chan people love this darkness, it is their way of life. Only the strongest of the newcomers could stomach the relentless onslaught of dark humor.

One day, enough people gathered together and said, "You know, I wish I could have the lulz of 4chan, but without all the crazies". And thus reddit was born. Reddit could be likened to a great industrial city, it has nice roads, but it also has its seedy underside. You could imagine then Reddit could be Orlando, and 4chan, Miami. Eventually a rivalry broke and the 4chaners and redditors began claiming rights over the lulz they have created. They have been locked in a war ever since.

Then, along comes 9Gag. If 4chan, and reddit can agree on one thing, its that 9Gag is a worthless scumb heap only fit for infantile adults with herpes for eyes. 9Gag has come to our lands and stolen our original lulz and claims the glory for themselves.

So behold, should you choose to side with 9Gag, you will choose to side with death.

Bottom line:
4chan = hilarious, very intellectually intelligent, VERY original, but batshit insane
reddit = hilarious,very grammatically intelligent, somewhat original, but not nearly as batshit insane.
9GAG = stupid ********* who don't know how to do anything but eat their own **** and steal everyone elses.

Edit: Take note, many redditors browse 4chan, and vise versa. BUT NEVER EVER 9GAG.

How do I get higher karma on Reddit karma and is it worth it?

As others have pointed out, of course you have to post popular content to gain karma on Reddit. But the question is, what makes content popular and how do you find it first?I have been active on Reddit for years and am one of the Redditors with the highest karma count. So let me tell you how I find content that a lot of users will like.When I started posting to Reddit, I wasn’t sure at all what people would like to see. For more than one year I was mostly a lurker and got a good grap on what hit the front page and what people do not like. I also found a lot of different subreddits, which is also very important when posting to Reddit.There are much more subreddits than /r/pics and /r/funny, and if you want to hit the right target group you have to know them. I know many different subreddits and have submitted content to almost 100. Examples of niche subreddits are /r/AnimalsBeingJerks or /r/LearnUselessTalents. They only have 50,000 to 100,000 subscribers, but that’s enough for you to hit the front page.So now you now a lot about reddit and are ready to post there. But the question remains, what do you post? At the beginning I mainly got my content from Imgur. I lurked Usersub for rising posts and found those that I thought would appeal to Reddit users. Always then check Karmadecay to see if your post has already been posted to Reddit. There are some successful reposters, but I only submit new content to Reddit.But after some time this got boring and I started making my own content. I won’t tell you my “secret formula” here, but I basically scoured the internet for videos that were on the brink of getting popular and converted them to gifs with Imgur Vid to Gif. I then submit them to Imgur and Reddit, often hitting the Frontpage on both sites.Some of my gifs on Imgur have been viewed by millions and I see some of my gifs reposted to Facebook even after more than a year.To answer your question if it’s worth it: To me, that’s definitely a yes. I just love seeing my content on the front page and knowing that millions of people enjoy it. Other than that, it is pretty useless though. Of course I got a good feeling on knowing what kind of content might get viral, which to some extent helps me as a blogger. But mostly, it’s about the fun.

How do you make a subreddit on reddit?

Hi I am trying to figure out how to make a sub-reddit on reddit.com, and everyone on google says to "Click on the button on the right hand side," but I am not seeing the button. If you have ever made a sub-reddit community or know how to do so can you please help me?

How can I use Reddit efficiently?

#1: Miller nails it when he says that you should probably "unsubscribe from almost all major default subs". They will definitely dominate your feed and you will lose out on good content on some of the more niche subs.#2: You need to remember that keeping your feed relevant is a function of constantly subscribing to good subs and unsubscribing from ones that have gone downhill.Around a year back I unsubscribed from all funny ones - /r/pics, /r/aww, /r/funny etc. Same goes for /r/music where there's a lot of stuff happening and most of it is irrelevant. /r/philosophy and /r/technology were the next ones to go.I will soon be unsubscribing from /r/bestof as the content quality over there has been deteriorating for the past few months. Instead of /r/music, I now have /r/listentothis which is surprisingly a far, far, far better music discovery sub than the former. /r/bestof will be replaced by /r/depthhub and /r/outoftheloop. /r/technology by /r/futurology.#3: Create multi-reddits. I have a lot of varied interests - from news, politics, and tech to movies, music, comics etc. So, for each of them you can create a new multi-reddit.News and politicsLearningMusicMoviesComicsScience and techThe "Ask" communityand so on..You can create multi-reddits by going to the left sidebar on your front page.
