What is AutoModerator?

AutoModerator (commonly called 'AutoMod') is the single biggest obstacle for Reddit marketers. Each subreddit configures its own AutoMod rules, which can filter posts based on account age, karma, keyword patterns, URL domains, and posting frequency. A post that passes in one subreddit may be instantly removed in another. According to moderator surveys, over 85% of active subreddits with 10,000+ members use AutoModerator rules. Common trigger patterns include: direct links to commercial sites, posts containing words like 'discount' or 'promo', accounts younger than 7 days, and multiple posts within a 24-hour window. Reddwise's subreddit intelligence feature analyses each community's AutoModerator rules and flags potential violations before you post, reducing removal rates by up to 94%.
