the backlinks are not worth much for SEO as far as I’m aware but do you guys generate a decent amount of clicks to your sites when doing any marketing campaigns on Reddit and Quora?

[Billy]

I know a lot of people don’t even put clicks to avoid getting flagged as spam they just mention the product name.

ic… how does this help, just building awareness?

Brand awareness yah, but also just getting mentioned in the Reddit threads can help build your entity graph, esp with AI. Know Google Gemini and whatever other AI bots they are using have data sharing with Reddit so they are going to learn about your brand if it is mentioned in a certain context can really help to expand the brand’s knowledge/entity graph in Google’s knowledge base.

Quora is VERY likely to automatically flag your answer as spam if it contains links just fyi.

is Quora experiencing a surge after the HCU algorithm?

Reddit is so full of spam it’s nuts.

Some interesting thread, you come back 1-2 months later and the affiliate link spammers have paid people to edit their comments and replace the top voted comments with affiliate link spam and then you have the activists that black out their answers to protest the Reddit IPO and canceling their free API data so you are left with power tripping mods and spammers, like everywhere else

The thing about getting clicks from Reddit is it’s mostly snobby, jaded users just spying on you, they are not really “ready to buy” or open minded users who are looking for products or services. There are exceptions of course, but this has been true for a long time.

This guy tried to convince me otherwise:

I think the only effective way to get converting traffic from Reddit is if you get your keyword-targeted thread to rank really high on Google for your target phrase, and your OP post is pretty much a sales pitch, and some of the comments are supportive. In other words, this is usually impossible on the popular subreddits, it relies on spamming low-traffic subs or creating your own subs and ranking your posts.

Quora clicks ok, if your link isn’t flagged

imo they both kind of suck for direct traffic, I agree with this–

some good info, but I don’t think buying his “QApop” affiliate link is necessary, it’s not difficult at all to find or create you own useful questions on Quora, you really don’t need to buy an app for that
