Subreddits are the Reddit communities where Dabe monitors for posts matching your keywords. Adding relevant subreddits ensures you capture conversations where your target audience is active.

## Viewing Subreddits

The Subreddits page displays all monitored communities with:

| Column       | Description                     |
| ------------ | ------------------------------- |
| Subreddit    | Community name and description  |
| Members      | Total subscriber count          |
| Posts/Day    | Average daily post volume       |
| Avg Comments | Average comments per post       |
| Created      | When the subreddit was created  |
| Status       | Active or paused                |
| Added        | When you added this subreddit   |

## Subreddit Metrics

### Members

Total subscribers to the community. Larger communities mean more visibility but also more competition.

### Posts/Day

Average number of new posts daily. Higher activity means more opportunities but also faster-moving conversations.

### Avg Comments

## Choosing Subreddits

### Good Subreddits to Monitor

* **Product category communities:** r/productivity, r/software
* **Industry-specific:** r/projectmanagement, r/smallbusiness
* **Problem-focused:** r/ADHD, r/getdisciplined
* **Recommendation requests:** r/SuggestALaptop, r/AskReddit

### Subreddits to Avoid

* Very broad subreddits (too much noise)
* Communities with strict self-promotion rules
* Inactive subreddits (\< 1 post/day)

## Best Practices

1. **Start with 5-10 subreddits** - Expand as you learn what works
2. **Balance size and relevance** - Smaller niche communities often convert better
3. **Check community rules** - Some subreddits prohibit promotional content
4. **Monitor activity** - Focus on subreddits with high engagement
