r/socialmedia — frequently asked

How many members does r/socialmedia have?

r/socialmedia has 2,115,271 members as of our most recent crawl on Aug 7. Prowlo re-checks tracked communities on a rolling schedule, so this figure moves rather than sitting frozen at whatever it was when a scraper last ran.

Is r/socialmedia growing?

We don't have 30 days of snapshot history for r/socialmedia yet, so we're not going to invent a growth number. We've been tracking it since Aug 7; the chart fills in as history accumulates.

How active is r/socialmedia?

We don't have a reliable posting-rate sample for r/socialmedia yet. Subscriber count alone is a poor guide to whether a community is active, so treat this one as unverified until the crawl accumulates more.

Can I promote my product in r/socialmedia?

Our read on r/socialmedia is medium promo tolerance. A product mention is fine when it genuinely answers the question asked, and unwelcome when it does not. Always read the sidebar rules before you post; moderator enforcement is the thing that actually decides.
