Hey, I need to farm comment karma on reddit. Anyone have a good resource?
Follow along with the video below to see how to install our site as a web app on your home screen.
Note: This feature may not be available in some browsers.
Watching and learning is key. Spend enough time in a subreddit and you can guess what the top comment will be before opening the post, spend enough time on reddit in general and you'll see patterns in these top comments.This is where people fail - they skip the part where I say I "watched it for MONTHS".

Starting small, look for beginner posts on a hobby, they will repeat or rephrase questions that have been asked before and there will always be a common community approved best answer.
Building it up use the top patterns you see and apply them to broad subreddits like pics, memes etc... and rack up upvotes on repeating unoriginal but community approved comments

I'll add that you can accelerate this process by using something like the Wayback Machine to see what was on top in previous months/years at different points. This can allow you to study across time without having to wait on time to pass.
Now that's a great way to ensure you get that first comment in quick. Could probably go back and upvote it with the other accountImmediately switch accounts and use your first account to comment on the post
I use Up Vote DOT shop to buy upvotes. $0.10 per upvote and you can even set it up so that it automatically upvotes any comment or post you make on a username. If you want karma, set it to do the upvotes right after you post.Nice example!

I've read that you can't drop links and need to drop brands for them to google, but I'm struggling here too. I see other brands buying agencie services for this and I'm talking to one agency for my day job. Price is $4,000 for 400 brand mention comments! It is supposed to boost branded queries, which should help SEO too. Excited to see how it goes and how I can do it myself for my own site.
I have competitors buying this service and I see their brand mentions on reddit threads It is working for them and increasing their brand queries. The admins on reddit are complaining about this spam, but they can't differentiate the real brand mentions from the paid ones. The competitors have active subreddits of their own too.Mods might be seeing unusual upvote patterns, they know what resonates and if something that doesn't quite fit into the community mindset has a high volume of upvotes it might seem suspicious.
How many upvotes are you buying per comment? You might be raising suspicion by doing too many, you really only want to boost the comment up to the top so it gets more organic upvotes.
Is this why you're farming karma, to get branded mentions? You can drop links if it's truly helpful, otherwise you'll get called out. Mentioning a brand could increase the organic google searches for your brand terms. If it seems natural then it won't get flagged but if the brand wouldn't fit in the community mindset the moderators would probably catch on to that too. They're not going to care what account did it but flag any post mentioning the brand. Keep in mind moderators in these subreddits typically live and breath the topic and they know what's genuinely popular or not.
Just my general take on this, I think a typical redditor if suspicious will review your post history, maybe a quick glance at karma but I think a moderator will likely review the subject more critically than the account karma history when considering if it should be allowed on the subreddit.
I would think that this is exactly how they're catching you. Are your competitors hitting old posts too? Might make more sense to have the brand mention on a fresher post with more eyes on itThese threads are usually 3 months to 2 years old anyways. surprising that admins catch me there.
but then the traffic will die once the thread dies Targeting posts that rank for keywords has shown that the traffic is steady Hence why I want to target itI would think that this is exactly how they're catching you.

I see, that's tough because unless the conversation is still active (because it ranks) it will come across as odd to post a random comment on a dead thread. Maybe to fly under the radar ensure that people have still recently commented on it.but then the traffic will die once the thread dies Targeting posts that rank for keywords has shown that the traffic is steady Hence why I want to target it
