Reddit Subscribers

Overview Reddit is one of the most important platforms for tracking grassroots discussions around companies, products, and cultural trends. Subreddits dedicated to specific brands or sectors provide a direct window into consumer engagement and loyalty. The number of subscribers reflects the size of a community, while the net change in subscribers measures momentum. TickerTrends tracks this net daily change to highlight when interest in a brand, idea or product is accelerating.

Historical Length Coverage extends back to the inception date of each subreddit. This allows users to see the full community growth trajectory, including the earliest days of brand awareness.

Granularity Subscriber data is collected at daily granularity, making it possible to identify breakout growth periods and sustained increases in community size.

Update Frequency Updated daily, with a short lag of less than 24 hours from live activity.

Methodology TickerTrends aggregates subscriber counts directly from web scraping techniques and calculates the net daily change. This approach makes it easy to distinguish between stable, slowly growing communities and sudden viral spikes in subscriber momentum. Raw data is kept intact without normalization to maintain accuracy to Reddit’s native subscriber counts.
