How to check a site for the Reddit Ads tag

  1. Open the site in Chrome and open DevTools (⌥⌘I on Mac, Ctrl+Shift+I on Windows), then the Network tab.
  2. Reload and filter for www.redditstatic.com. A request to it (or alb.reddit.com) means the tag is live on that page.
  3. Not there? It may only fire on conversion pages, or sit inside Google Tag Manager. Search the container’s tags (or the gtm.js response) for www.redditstatic.com.

Reddit advertisers: common questions

Is this the total number of Reddit advertisers?

No. We detected the Reddit Ads tag on 7,536 domains among 1,008,359 company websites analysed. This is an observed sample of companies and startups, not an estimate of the platform's whole advertiser base.

Which advertisers are most likely to also use Reddit?

In our comparison panel, 36% of sites with the Nextdoor Ads tag also carry the Reddit Ads tag, against 5.6% of the full panel. Next come Spotify Ads (35%), Quora Ads (28%) and Snapchat Ads (25%).

Which companies use Reddit for advertising?

They include Deloitte, Crossover, Sanofi, Novartis and Hewlett Packard Enterprise. The table on this page lists more.

How does Reddit compare to other ad platforms?

Within our 134,794-site tag-manager panel, Reddit ranks #6 of 14 major ad platforms by detected sites — ahead of ChatGPT Ads (OpenAI), X Ads, The Trade Desk, Pinterest Ads and Snapchat Ads, behind Google Ads, Meta Ads, LinkedIn Ads, Microsoft Ads and TikTok Ads.

What is www.redditstatic.com?

It serves Reddit pixel — the tag advertisers add so Reddit can measure ad clicks and conversions on their own site. Its presence means a site has set up Reddit Ads measurement; it does not tell you how much, or whether, they are currently spending.

How can I check if a website has the Reddit Ads tag?

Open the site in Chrome, open DevTools → Network, reload, and filter for "www.redditstatic.com". A request to it means the tag is live on that page. If the site uses Google Tag Manager, the tag can also sit inside the container and fire only on certain pages.
