## **Subreddit Analysis FAQs**

Where the Subreddit Data Comes From

How the timing recommendations are worked out, what else the analysis reads in a community, and how to turn any of it into a scheduled post.

Still have questions? Check out our help center for answers to most of your questions, or reach out to our support team.

[**Visit the Help Center **](https://help.postpone.app/) [**Contact us **](https://www.postpone.app/contact)

### **Does subreddit analysis use my posts or the whole community's?**

The community's. Postpone reads thousands of successful submissions to a subreddit from lots of different accounts and works out when that community is actually online, upvoting and commenting. Your own posting history is not part of the calculation, so you can analyze a subreddit you have never posted in and get the same picture as somebody who posts there every day.

That is the reason to do it per community rather than per account. Reddit has over 3 million subreddits, each with its own subscribers in its own timezones, and the ones you are new to are exactly the ones where you most need somebody else to have done the counting.

[**Finding the best times to post **](https://help.postpone.app/getting-started/discovering-the-best-times-to-post)

### **Is there one best time to post on Reddit?**

No, and any single answer you have read is an average of communities that have nothing to do with each other. A default subreddit with 30 million subscribers spread worldwide peaks at a different hour than a niche one whose members are mostly in a single country, so Postpone answers it per subreddit: a best-times heatmap for the week at a glance, engagement per day and engagement per hour charts, and ranked recommendations for each weekday.

Those times are shown in your own timezone. Postpone picks it up from your browser and you can override it in Settings, so a recommendation reads as a time you can schedule against rather than one you have to convert.

[**Setting your timezone **](https://help.postpone.app/account-and-billing/account/timezones)

### **Can I schedule straight from a recommendation?**

Yes, you can schedule straight from a recommendation. Every recommendation card carries a Schedule a Post button that takes the subreddit, day and time into the scheduler with it.

Bulk work has a shorthand instead. Put a schedule date expression in the post\_at column of a Bulk Import CSV, or in a post template, and Postpone resolves it against the analysis when the post is scheduled: best\_tomorrow, best\_4\_days, best\_next\_7\_days to let it choose the day as well as the hour, 3best\_4\_days for the third best slot rather than the first, and best\_today+20m to nudge one along.

[**Scheduling with subreddit analysis **](https://help.postpone.app/scheduling/bulk-import/scheduling-with-subreddit-analysis)

### **How do I know which flair to use?**

Postpone shows you which flair the successful posts in a subreddit are actually using. Flair is not decoration on Reddit: plenty of communities require one and auto-remove posts without it, and the rest use it to route posts to the readers who filter by it, so the wrong flair is not far off no flair.

Once you have settled on one, save it as that subreddit’s default in the Subreddit Manager and it is filled in for you on every post after that.

[**Per-subreddit defaults **](https://help.postpone.app/platforms/reddit/subreddit-manager)

### **Why does the same link do well in one subreddit and get removed in another?**

Because subreddits disagree about link domains, and many of them enforce it automatically. Some accept only direct uploads, some prefer imgur, some blacklist links to Instagram or to any site you might be selling something on. Postpone tracks the top link domains in a subreddit so you can see what that community actually accepts before you commit a post to it.

The written rules are checked separately: post validation reads a subreddit's whitelisted and blacklisted domains and warns you when your link is not going to survive.

[**How post validation works **](https://www.postpone.app/features/reddit-account-protection)

### **Can I see what successful titles in a subreddit have in common?**

Post Title Analysis builds a word cloud from the terms that appear most often in successful submissions to a subreddit. It is the quickest way to spot a convention nobody wrote down: a tag the regulars put in brackets, a format the community expects, a word that quietly gets posts buried.

Read it next to the subreddit's rules, which Postpone shows beside the scheduling form, and you have both the stated rules and the unstated ones.

### **Can I filter subreddit discovery by size or by whether it is SFW?**

Both. Subreddit Discovery searches millions of communities semantically, so you describe the topic rather than guess the name, then filters on minimum and maximum subscriber count and on work safety (all, SFW or NSFW). A minimum rules out communities too quiet to be worth a post; a maximum rules out the giants where a new account gets buried in an hour.

Anything worth keeping goes straight into your Subreddit Manager, and you can open the analysis for it from the same row to check the timing before you schedule anything.
