- ilrwbwrkhv 3y agoThank you. Yes this is much better. When talking about how things would look a picture is a must.
- RattlesnakeJake 3y ago> In early testing of the new format, Reddit found that free-form ads outperform all other ad types in average click through rate (CTR) by 28%, along with increased community engagement when comments are enabled. What they don't mention is that the comments are usually making fun of the ad, because it's Reddit.
