I built MediaFast to help founders grow on Reddit without getting banned or wasting months figuring it out.

Backstory: I tried building 2 projects before. Zero sales.
I thought I’d use Reddit for marketing. Instead, I got banned 6 times.
No traffic, no growth, just frustration...

But over time, I started to get it. I learned how each subreddit works, what kind of posts actually land, how to blend in while still driving traffic. Slowly it clicked.
I went from bans to thousands of visitors from a single post.

That’s when I realized: other founders were struggling with the same things. They told me things like:
“I don’t know what to post.”
“I don’t know where to post.”
“I start, then disappear.”

So I built MediaFa.st

What it does today is simple:

  • Gives you a clear roadmap of when, where, and what to post on Reddit.

  • Suggests whether you should go direct with links or use a storytelling approach that makes people ask.

  • Helps with post scheduling, karma tracking, and even expands to LinkedIn so you don’t miss opportunities outside Reddit.

  • Keeps it safe and native, no scraping or shady automations.

Where we are now:

  • $1.5k+ MRR and almost $9k ARR.

  • Around $1.7k MRR in the last 3 months.

  • Dozens of founders using it daily.

  • Still solo and fully bootstrapped, but growing every month.

It feels like we’re solving a real problem: helping founders finally make Reddit work for them instead of fighting it.

👉 If you’ve struggled with Reddit marketing and growth, try MediaFa.st. I’d love your feedback!

    Congrats on getting traction that’s not easy with Reddit I’ve also felt the pain of getting posts deleted or banned when trying to promote something the learning curve is steep curious how you balance giving people structure without making their posts feel formulaic since authenticity is everything on Reddit

    Looks interesting, and something I might try in the future (I currently just started on reddit, so I wanna try doing it manually for a while to get the feel).

    Curious, how did you start this journey? Where did you get your first users or early-adopters?
