One thing I love about reddit is the impossibility to know if your account has been suspended, if you don’t know or heard about this simple tip I’m about to show you.

Why I say that you won’t know if you have been ban: Even if your account is suspended/ ban, you will still post your links, comment on other links, vote for other member but what you do will not appear to the general public (community), it will be visible to you alone. That means, nobody will see your votes, comments or the links you dropped. In essence, all your posts, upvotes, comments, will be a waste of your precious time.

How Do You Know If Your Account Has Been Ban/ Suspended?

The process is very simple=> open a new browser or logout from reddit – now simply type “http://www.reddit.com/user/yourusernamehere” and if you see something like the image below, then you have been ban.

Why Did My Account Get Suspended?

Because you simply did not follow the rules laid down by reddit. Are you too busy to read the TOS of any site you joined? Then why join them if you don’t know what they are about?

My advice to any blogger who truly wants to get traffic from any top community sites that gives traffic; it is best to always read their TOS so you’ll know how to utilize that particular zone and bring out the best.

And What Are These Rules?

I am just going to mention the simple rules I am following that still keep me active and sharp in reddit community

√ Do not spam – posting so many links from one source per day is called spamming.

√ Do not post your link to categories that are not related to what you’re posting about

√ At least be active in the community once a week if you are on a busy schedule as me

Remember:

The only way you can get traffic from reddit is if you get an upvote. Also remember that the more the upvotes, the more the exposure, the more your traffic increases.

If you can get just four upvotes, you will be surprised at the traffic you will get

.
