I built a tool to grow on Reddit and LinkedIn and it made $10k from my room

Hey IH fam 👋

Every time I launched something, I had no idea where to post it. Reddit felt risky. X was slow. LinkedIn… I didn’t even know where to begin.

So I did what a lot of you probably do too - I guessed.
Sometimes it worked. Mostly it didn’t.

After a bunch of bans, dead posts, and hours lost digging through subreddits, I started writing down what actually worked — where to post, what to comment, how to grow without spamming or being annoying.

That turned into a system.
And that system became Mediafa.st.

It’s a growth tool for makers who want to grow across Reddit, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, and Bluesky — with a daily roadmap, subreddit discovery, scheduler, and more.

🧠 It tells you:
– Where to post
– What to say
– When to post
– And how to stay consistent (without getting banned)

I’ve used it to:
✅ Hit $6k+ in sales
✅ Get 500k+ Reddit views
✅ Grow to 11k LinkedIn + 2.4k X followers
✅ And now 97+ others are using it too

What’s inside?

  • Daily email reminders
  • Subreddit research
  • Post scheduler
  • Leaderboard & badges (yes, fun stuff)
  • Timeline & monthly roadmap views (What to post, WHEN and HOW)
  • Platform-specific strategy (Reddit ≠ LinkedIn ≠ X)

It’s built for makers, not marketers.

Would love your feedback, ideas, or thoughts 🙌
And if you’ve ever struggled with where to post or how to get traffic - lmk, I might have a few tricks to share 😉
