Lately I have been adding "reddit" to all the questions I ask google because I know some "real" person on reddit will have a relatable answer. I too feel this is untapped potential.
- chillacy 6y agoThere is so much blogspam and SEO gaming going on now that google results are very low quality for any topic where there's money to be made.
- vinhboy 6y agoVery good point. That is exactly why I stop visiting known network sites for answers. Especially when its topics like car repair, or home repair tips etc... It always goes to a fake SEO page with no real useful information. So then it's either reddit or some very niche forums, but forums are hard to use.

- lostlogin 6y agoParts (very small parts) are what Stack Overflow should be. The moderation and closing of questions (marking as duplicate or similar) on SO is so officious and malicious that it’s easy to just avoid it. The right subs for ones level are really really helpful.
- bjohnson225 6y agoI do that as well. If the Reddit search was better I’d happily start the search from there, but it does feel like a major failing on Google’s side when it can only provide me with SEO spam.
- nunez 6y agoI've been adding `site:reddit.com` to most of my searches for years, but I noticed this past year that Reddit threads rank highly on many searches even without this operator. That's huge.
