A 6-month playbook to win Reddit and get your product cited by ChatGPT
tibo_maker · x · 2026-11-02
Indie maker tibo shares a full 6-month system for getting your product into the Reddit threads Google ranks and AI answers cite (AEO), without getting banned. The accompanying images show his one-page "Repository" asset: one-line positioning, 5 niche angles, always/never-use word lists, an honest limitation, and comparison targets that every reply follows.
Key points:
- Reddit's unit is question→answer; only the top reply gets picked up by Google and AI, buried replies barely exist, and anything ad-like gets silently removed by mods
- The flywheel: playbook seeds threads → your users mention you → threads rank on Google for years → AI answers cite them → more people find you
- Includes rankings of 5 Reddit marketing tools, account warm-up from zero, a monthly plan with real numbers, and every prompt ready to copy
