In a recent conference call, Reddit CEO Steve Huffman announced that users will soon have the opportunity to earn money on the platform. Reddit plans to offer different ways to monetize, which will be implemented later this year.
One possibility is to give users the option to offer exclusive content or private areas within their subreddits. This could create new types of subreddits that offer various forms of exclusive or paid content. In addition, Reddit plans to develop more interactive applications such as scoreboards or stock tickers. Another interesting aspect is the possibility that users could buy products or services via apps created by other users within the platform.
When asked how Reddit's unique culture could be protected while introducing monetization opportunities, Huffman emphasized that new uses would not "cannibalize" the existing platform. In his experience, the introduction of monetization will not displace the free version of Reddit. Rather, it will open up new use cases and promote the growth of the platform.
