# Gingiris Reddit Marketing Playbook

> The complete Reddit operations SOP for AI/SaaS founders going global.

## 🎯 Hero Stats (why this is worth your time)

| Stat | Value | Source |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Reddit's share of ChatGPT/Claude training data** | **40.11%** | The highest-weighted English UGC source in AI training |
| **AFFiNE Reddit campaign reach** | **3-4万有效曝光 (30K-40K effective impressions)** | Iris-led AFFiNE 0→60K stars campaign |
| **AFFiNE Reddit → GitHub Star conversion** | **5–8%** | Reddit traffic is highest-intent of all external sources |
| **Adobe Reddit ad conversion (2022)** | **3x** vs other platforms | Adobe brand campaign benchmark |
| **Reddit weekly searches** | **70M+ searches/week** | Reddit Q4 2025, +33% YoY |
| **Reddit MAU** | **1.2B** | Q4 2025, 49% US |
| **Mobile share** | **78%** | Optimize for mobile preview |

**The thesis**: AI search engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini) cite Reddit answers at the highest rate of any source. Doing Reddit right in 2026 isn't social media marketing — it's GEO infrastructure for the AI search era.

## 📦 Install

```bash
npx skills add Gingiris-1031/gingiris-reddit-marketing
```

Then ask your AI agent:

> "Audit my Reddit strategy" or "Help me plan a Product Hunt × Reddit launch" or "Which subreddits should I target for my AI SaaS?"

## 🔑 Five Core Principles

1. **Karma is the gate, not posting** — A 20-day account warming protocol (Karma 0 → 500) precedes any business activity. Skip this and you'll shadow ban in 72 hours.
2. **90/10 rule, no exceptions** — 90% of your contributions are pure value (no brand mention), 10% is product. Reddit's `AutoModerator` and human mods both enforce this.
3. **Comments > posts** — Comment quality compounds Karma faster than posts. Top commenters on r/SaaS get more product clicks than top posters.
4. **Multi-account matrix is mandatory** — Single account = single point of failure. Run 10 accounts via fingerprint browser (AdsPower / 比特浏览器 / Arc), accept 50% loss rate.
5. **Reddit → private list, not Reddit → website** — Every Reddit-acquired user goes to your newsletter / Discord first. If your account is banned tomorrow, the audience survives.
