Website to Subreddits

What is the Website to Subreddits?

Website to Subreddits is a free tool that finds the subreddits where your customers talk, starting from your website's address. It reads your homepage, works out what the business does and what its customers care about, searches Reddit for those topics, and ranks the subreddits where they come up most.

How to use the Website to Subreddits

1. In Website, enter your domain, such as hyperank.ai. The homepage works best.
2. Press Find subreddits.
3. Read the line at the top: what the tool understood your business to be, and the topics it searched Reddit for.
4. Go through the ranked subreddits and open the example threads to judge the fit.
5. If the topics look off, run the Subreddit Finder with your own keywords instead.

How does it find subreddits from a website?

It reads your homepage's title, description, headings and copy, and an AI model summarises what the business offers and who for. From that it names your category in the words a buyer would search for, and three problems your customers discuss, phrased the way they would phrase them. Each of those is searched on Reddit, and the subreddits are ranked by how many matching threads they hold and how often people recommend them.

The summary and the topics are shown above the results, so you can see why each subreddit is there. If the summary is wrong, the homepage is probably not saying clearly what you do, which is worth knowing in itself.

The pages that read best say in the first heading what the product is and who it is for, use a meta description that a stranger would understand, and describe the problem before the features. If your homepage leads with a slogan, try entering a product or features page instead, which usually says more plainly what you sell.

Why search for customer problems instead of the product?

Because almost nobody on Reddit names a product category the way its website does. A team that sells scheduling software finds its customers in threads about missed appointments, no-shows and endless emails to agree a time, not in threads that say "scheduling software". A meal-kit company finds them in threads about cooking on a budget after work.

Searching the problems finds the subreddits where buyers are before they know what to buy, which is where a helpful answer earns the most goodwill. The tool also searches your category by name, so the subreddits where people compare products directly come up as well.

Broad or niche subreddits: which are right for you?

Broad subreddits such as r/smallbusiness or r/productivity reach many people with many different needs. They are good for visibility and for learning how a wide audience describes the problem, but a post there competes with hundreds of others a day, and promotion is usually tightly restricted.

Niche subreddits, named after a specific job, tool or situation, reach far fewer people who share your customer's exact problem. They are where detailed questions get asked and where one useful reply can be read for months. Most businesses do best with two or three niche communities to take part in regularly and one or two broad ones to post their best material in.

What to do once you have the list

Spend time in the top few subreddits before posting anything. Read the rules, sort by Top for the past month to see which posts do well, and notice the questions that keep coming up. Then answer some of them where you genuinely know the answer, as yourself, without links. Most subreddits remove promotion from accounts that only show up to promote, and their members remember who helped.

When you do post, write for the subreddit rather than your company: what you learned, what you built and why, or a question the community can answer. The Reddit Post Title Generator writes titles that fit a named subreddit, and the Reddit Leads Finder finds threads where someone is asking for a product like yours right now.
