Advertising Your Podcast on Reddit

Welcome to Pocket-Sized Podcasting, brought to you by Alitu: The Podcast Maker. And on this episode, we’re talking about advertising your podcast on Reddit. Reddit is described as a “social news aggregation, web content rating, and discussion website.” That’s some elevator pitch eh? You can’t argue, though. It is one of the most visited websites in the world – and it's yet another place you can run paid ads to promote your content. To advertise your podcast on Reddit, you first need to sign up with Reddit Ads, where you can create your first campaign. Here, Reddit will ask you for your campaign objective. The options they give include “Brand Awareness and Reach”, “Traffic”, “Conversions”, and “Video Views”. You can tailor your ad targeting, going as wide or as narrow as you like, selecting from a range of interests and niche Reddit communities. You can also run location targeting. If you're based in the US, you can even do this on a per-state basis. On top of that, you can choose which devices your ads will run on – for example, a podcast about iOS/Apple products wouldn't want to waste its money advertising to Android users.
