Reddit-native video vs. linking out to YouTube
This week on Reddit marketing: hosting video on Reddit or sending people off-platform.
— [Tactic] Native video keeps users in-feed and the algorithm rewards the watch time, but it strips your branding and caps clickthrough to your site.
— [Tactic] A YouTube link drives off-platform traffic and retargeting, yet many subs throttle or auto-remove outbound video links as self-promo.
— [Case] Creators in r/NewTubers report native uploads get the upvotes while linked uploads get the subscribers — different goals entirely.
— [Rule-change] Several subs now require native uploads for any video flair; check the rule before you paste a YouTube URL.
Editor's pick: native for reach inside Reddit, YouTube link only where the sub explicitly allows it.
