Marketing on Reddit & Linkedin without getting suspended

August 14, 2025 How I turned Reddit growth problem into a $8.9k side project!

I had 2 failed projects without a single sale.
I tried marketing them on Reddit… and got banned 6 times for doing it wrong.
No traffic, no sales - just frustration.

That’s how MediaFa.st was born.

I mastered Reddit tactics, learning posting styles, understanding each subreddit’s culture, and knowing exactly how to blend in while still driving traffic. I went from getting banned to getting thousands of visitors from a single post.

MediaFast is a tool that helps founders grow on Reddit with a clear roadmap telling you WHEN to post/comment, WHERE to post, HOW to engage, and WHAT to say.
Plus: post scheduling, karma tracking, badges, multi-platform support (LinkedIn), and content strategy tools, think Buffer, but Reddit-native.

The core feature? MediaFa.st figures out the best growth strategy for your product, whether that’s aggressive marketing with direct linking or a storytelling-first approach that builds curiosity and gets people asking for your link.

What worked for me:

  • Niching down hard to Reddit & LinkedIn instead of chasing every platform — and going deep into one channel until I could get consistent results.

  • Solving my own problem first, which made the product instantly useful and easier to explain.

  • Starting with a low price to remove friction, then raising it as demand grew.

  • Listening to early users and building only what they actually asked for - fast.

  • Letting the product sell itself by showing results in my own Reddit posts (yep, self-referential).

  • Investing in SEO early so I wasn’t only dependent on social traffic.

  • Building in public to attract an audience before I had a marketing budget.

  • Repurposing content across all possible socials to squeeze the most reach out of every post.

📈 Now I’m at $1.5k+ MRR and $8.9k ARR, still solo, fully bootstrapped, and growing.

Ask me anything - growth strategies, Reddit tactics, or product lessons.
P.S. Every roadmap is based on my own knowledge & experience - no AI fluff.

    Super relevant. What kind of posts tend to drive the most engagement when you're using a storytelling-first approach?

    I like the idea and I could even see myself interested in buying. But the landing feels overloaded with Cialdini-style B2C triggers (e.g. ‘active users now’, ‘limited discount’, etc.) that are obviously fake. It makes the whole thing look AI-generated rather than authentic. Just my humble feedback — hope it’s useful :)

    When we post links on subreddit they removed us quickly. How to fix it?

      Read subreddit rules (may be prohibited). You may be under a filter of Reddit algos if you comment links TOO much, give it some space and time, so algos can "forget" about you
