According to an EMARKETER report, Reddit's ad revenue is anticipated to grow over 30% this year, outpacing all other social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram. The report credits this surge to Reddit's expanding user base and its unique social ambiance, which encourages communal interactions. Reddit CEO Steve Huffman emphasizes the platform's value for providing rich, updated content appealing to search engines. However, advertisers face challenges as the community often resists brand presence, necessitating more authentic engagement strategies from businesses.
The report notes that Reddit users typically don't want brands in their conversations, especially ones that aren't upfront about who they are.
Huffman said at a Wall Street Journal event in October that Reddit posts are valuable for search engines and AI because they contain a wealth of colloquial words about pretty much every topic.
