What is Subreddit?

Reddit is one of the most popular sites in the world with hundreds of millions of visitors every month. Signing up as a user in this social network communication platform is easy but creating a subreddit requires you to fulfill the Reddit community terms and guidelines.  

Subreddit is nothing but a web forum of a particular niche where you can post links or create a post and discuss it with your subreddit subscribers. Subreddits are free to create and customize and we choose it public or private mode. It has unique themes, specific rules, and subreddit subscribers can post any type of relevant content. The category is very important, and the conversation must be relevant, otherwise, the comments will be removed by a moderator. We also use this subreddit to market our business products and services through Reddit.

If you’re looking to know how to create a subreddit on pc or mobile, then you’re reached the right place!

How To Create Your Own Subreddit

You can create your own Reddit profile by clicking the Sign-Up button on reddit.com. To create a subreddit, you must have a 30 days old Reddit account and earn some amount of positive karma.  

  • Select the “Create Community” button from your Reddit home page, as seen below. Or else you can click the direct link to create subreddit

Choosing Unique Subreddit Name

If you want to how to make a good subreddit, you need to follow the Reddit guidelines. So this is the important step of your community’s identity. This is exactly what you’ll see at the top of your community and in the URL Redditors will use to access it. Once you click “Create Community” at the end of this form, the name will be locked. So choose it wisely.

  • it’s not already taken (you can double-check by typing reddit.com/r/ followed by the name you’re considering),
  • it has the capitalization you prefer (there’s no changing this later), and
  • it’s 20 characters or fewer.

Once you’ve decided on the name, fill the description box with the appropriate information and choose community type. 

Finally, you’ve created your new subreddit.

Now you have stepped into a new Reddit role called ‘moderator’ (also referred to as a mod). When you are a subreddit mod, you can do things like delete posts, lock comments or threads from getting more responses, and even label certain content as NSFW.

By following the above steps, you can easily create a subreddit on a mobile app too.

Reddit Mod Mail

As a moderator, you’ll also get a free feature known in the Reddit world as Modmail. Modmail serves as a sort of email inbox for mods that you can use to communicate with fellow mods or handle questions and inquiries from other Reddit users. 

To access your Modmail, you must first select the shield symbol located on the Reddit home page. You’ll see it in the upper right-hand corner of the screen. Another way you can access Modmail is by following this link: mod.reddit.com.

How Much Required Karma To Create Subreddit?

Reddit doesn’t specify any minimum amount of karma points to make a subreddit. It is kept secret from the public (to prevent spam), but according to Reddit, the number “isn’t prohibitively high.” Many Redditors and moderators said you should have around 50 combined (Post and Comment) karma points to create your own subreddit.

Promote Your Subreddit

Once your subreddit is created, you should tell your subreddits other Redditors know it exists. The best way to grow your subreddit subscribers and get more attention is to submit a link to your subreddit to the /r/newreddits community (New Reddits). You can also post links in other subreddits that are similar or related to your subreddit’s topic. Other people will likely want to engage with your content if they’re interested in that topic already.
