Reddit is experiencing strong growth, with daily active users increasing by 19% year over year in the last quarter. This translated to an impressive 68% year-over-year increase in advertising revenue, and there's a good explanation for this growth. "Reddit" is one of the most frequently searched keywords on Alphabet's Google. People are specifically seeking out Reddit to find helpful answers on various topics, including product reviews. This also means Reddit is attracting people who may have high purchase intent when shopping, which is valuable to advertisers. This makes Reddit unique in the social media landscape, and the company is clearly monetizing its user base effectively.
