View submission: How to grow my subreddit?

Before you even try what /u/YorjYefferson said[1], you *have* to fill-up the first page or two with top-quality content. I don't mean submit something every day, I'm saying submit some thing of best quality, whether it takes 3-4-5 days between posts.

The first page or two are *key*.

You want visitors to *instantly* see what kind of stuff is not only considered acceptable to your subscribers but what quality of stuff is upvoted.

So, slow down, build your sub great-post by great-post, something you can be proud of. And change your header art from the standard generic snoo. It's a multi-month long process.

Once that's all done, advertise it in /r/newreddits, etc.

You're right, this is probably a better way for GreyHero2005 to approach it.
