How to Promote at Reddit

I Love YTtalk
hey guys, anyone of you tried to promote your channel videos on Reddit before? I not dare to do that because they called it SPAM and get ShadowBanned. But some of the people say Reddit is the best place to promote your channels, how to do that actually? How can I promote my channel videos anonymously?

Ummm... create a name that's different than your channel's name. I have not had much success on Reddit, but I'm sure there are ways to get a lot of views.

It's really hard to do, because Reddit isn't into self-promotion and will hit it HARD.
 
What sort of channel do you have?

It all depends on that.

For me, there are a bunch of gaming youtuber subreddits that I use on a regular basis. None really allow self promotion but there are subreddits where you give feedback to other youtubers and in return you can hope for some as well.

But, I've said this a hundred times, you have to put the time in and get to know the people there. You won't do well on reddit if you don't contribute.
 
Everybody in this thread is hating reddit, but if you learn to properly use it, it gives you a huge huge HUGE boost on your videos and subs. I had a CS:GO video that got 18000 views because it went popular on Reddit. It just takes some time getting used to. Interact, become part of the community and understand what they like before you even think to start posting on it.

Of course you have to give feedback, you can't just post your videos and not help anyone out. That's why reddit is so good, it weeds out the people who don't give a crap.

Usually, you have to give 2 critiques before you can post your own videos, and they have to be proper critiques not "I like your videos, good job" or "I think your thumbnails are good". If you provide useful feedback that helps that person you will do well on reddit.

You could try /r/Youtubers and /r/Letsplaycritique. There's a few others but these two are particularly good.

I saw a lot of cases at reddit, where people post their videos, and get flamed by majority, even though their videos is quite nice.
