As a marketer, business owner, or simply an English speaking internet user, you cannot afford to ignore Reddit any longer… especially when you consider the demographics, opportunities and impact a Reddit presence can provide. With over 400 million monthly users, Reddit is one of the largest and most active social media sites. It’s filled with users that speak English, are in their mid-30s, college educated, highly engaged, are influential in establishing internet culture as a whole – and maybe most importantly – spend money online. There is a reason why most marketers and businesses stay away from Reddit, even when they know how important and lucrative it can be.
