Makers, I analyzed more than 10 Million Reddit threads to understand what makes people upvote & comment. The title optimizer allows you to modify your Reddit posts so they attract more attention and bring more traffic & PR to your products & ideas.

Hey everybody, I was a bit frustrated with how certain posts on Reddit fail, even when the content is supposed to bring much more upvotes and discussion. So I decided to dig in a little and build a tool to help. If you use Reddit to: - Promote your products - Market something - Discuss or promote ideas - Have good laughs over crazy memes - Raise your karma because karma means something to you Reddit.Write can help you out. After analyzing more than 10 Million Reddit threads I found some interesting correlations and patterns that can help you with your Reddit content. If you want to post something, run it through the title optimizer and see how do we predict it to perform. Try to tweak the content a little, and see if we think it will do better. To predict how a title will do on Reddit we analyze the topic, phrasings, emotion, sentiment, flair, structure sentence, and more. The only caveat is that we can't actually check if what you are posting is interesting and makes sense. That's up to you. Create interesting content, and we can try to make it perform better on Reddit for you. We are still working on improving the algorithm, but feel free to give it a shot and share what you think. Some features are considered "premium", but you can use the coupon code: "freeforlife" to use everything (for life).

@kobyof Congrats on your launch. Looks pretty useful as clicks determine the success or failure of any post published. On a quick look at the site, there are couple of typos and it would be good if you can run the same through some scanner to clear it out. For example, "We don't check you for grammer", should have been spelled grammar. This will make it even more pleasant for new users who are hitting the site. Cheers -Deva

@kobyof I wrote a few replies below, but just want to say.. this is amazing. There's nothing worse than spending a week writing an awesome post only to have it downvoted into oblivion. Edit: Haha, "Cialdini - helps with upvotes"... I guess that's because he's... influential.

Nice idea - it would be great if your application can recommend better words when it says "Reconsider word selection" though.

@henry_h I'm on it. Maybe later this week will already be implemented.

@henry_h @kobyof Even just a "top 10 phrases for this sub" would be handy. Or perhaps even a colour code to the word storm so that I know blue means above average and red means below average

This is completely awesome - Last November, we had a post go nuclear on /r/IAMA which resulted in 12,000 signups in less than 12 hours. While most people are sleeping on Reddit - I think you're tool will help those who understand Reddit's enormous potential. Here is a post I made to explain what happened in November - maybe it will be interesting - https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/v...

@jacob_rezi Thanks for sharing! Hope it will be useful in future Reddit posts!

Do you have examples of this improving your reddit postings?
Koby Ofek

Yes! We tested it dozens of times, and gave a small group of beta testers to submit stories to Reddit and see how it works. If you create good content, you get good results. Thing is you can just bullshit the machine. It's possible to create a sequence of words that will trigger a high score from the app. However, if it doesn't make sense the Reddit people won't bite. You need to create engaging content, test the title on the app, and see if you can tweak it a bit to generate more interest. Reddit Write will help you not to fall through the cracks.

Very cool!
Frank Tran
@keiffmarco yeah, I think it's very cool as well

Hey Koby, awesome idea! Is it just breaking up the sentence into its component words and looking at historical data for those, or is it doing some other stuff too? I think this could be explained either way Alternative suggestions feels like an essential feature, plus some examples of posts that you have tested and improved using your tool I'd add a sign up CTA, particularly on this screen: https://redditwrite.datasources.... as it was really hard to find where to sign up

@andycloke Thanks for the feedback! Alternative suggestions are coming up... I'm checking historical data for component words, but also for: - Phrases (like, if you use word combinations, how do they perform historically) - The tone of your title (there is a cool algorithm checking the sentiment and tone of what you write. I compare that to sentiments that worked well in each specific subreddit) - Sentence structure - if you use a question or an imperative - I check if this historically works well in that subreddit - Flair - will adding flair help your cause or hurt it? and there a couple of more subtle things, like topics that historically work very well or very bad in each subreddit - I use them to add or substract points from the prediction score. I will work on making it a bit more transparent for the users to know what's going on. Also, as for the CTA, it's not very important for me to have people signup. For now, it mostly helps with keeping history of searches, and if you want the premium offering (which I give for free, or just for a donation to Black Lives Matter ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽). In any case, I will make it more prominent as you suggested. Thanks, highly appreciated!

@andycloke @kobyof Also a thought on /r/entrepreneur and other startup related threads would be to analyse the success rate of titles containing dollar figures
