Comment karma — how do people actually increase this?

I’m still pretty new here and half the communities I want to join need karma before I can even post properly.

The problem is… how are you supposed to get karma if most places don’t even let new people participate 😭

I’m not trying to farm fake upvotes or spam random comments.
I genuinely want to be active in communities related to business, fitness, and startups.

What actually worked for you guys when your account was new?

reddit.com

I’ve been lurking on Reddit for a while and finally started trying to post/comment properly…

and now I understand why people call this place hard for beginners 😭

Every subreddit feels like:
“your account is too new”
“not enough karma”
“post removed automatically”

Like bro I’m trying 😭

I genuinely just want to interact with people, learn stuff, and be part of communities I actually care about.

How did you guys survive the “new account” phase without giving up?

Are SaaS buyers starting to trust ChatGPT recommendations more than Google search?

Lately I’ve been noticing something interesting while researching SaaS products.

A lot of people are no longer searching:
“best CRM tools”
or
“best email automation software”
on Google first.

Instead, they’re asking ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, etc. directly for recommendations and comparisons.

What surprised me even more is that some SaaS products with average SEO are still getting recommended consistently inside AI tools, while some companies with massive SEO presence barely appear.

Makes me feel like SaaS discoverability is slowly changing from:
“Who ranks #1 on Google?”
to
“Which brands does the internet collectively trust?”

Feels like factors such as:
- brand authority
- community discussions
- Reddit mentions
- founder visibility
- topical trust
- product conversations

are starting to matter much more now.

Curious if other SaaS founders are tracking this yet or seeing similar behavior from users/customers.

Selling AEO Services

Is anyone else noticing that some SaaS brands are getting recommended inside ChatGPT/Perplexity way more often than others, even when their SEO isn’t that strong?

We’ve been analyzing a few companies recently across:
• SaaS
• AI tools
• EdTech
• FinTech
• Health brands

and the patterns are interesting.

A few things we noticed:
• AI tools seem to trust authority + structured topical coverage more than traditional SEO signals alone
• Smaller brands are outranking bigger ones in AI answers because of better entity/content structuring
• Some companies barely exist inside AI search despite having solid traffic from Google

We’ve been testing different approaches around:
• GEO/AEO
• AI-focused content structure
• Brand/entity positioning
• AI visibility tracking
• Mention optimization across the web

Still learning a lot in this space, but it genuinely feels like “AI discoverability” is becoming its own category separate from traditional SEO.

Curious if others building in SaaS/AI are seeing similar trends yet.

Getting solid referrals for our AEO/GEO agency but struggling to scale outbound

We’ve been running an AEO/GEO agency for some time now and honestly most of our clients have come through referrals + word of mouth.

Results and retention have been good, so fulfillment isn’t really the issue.

The challenge now is predictable scaling.

Cold outreach feels noisy right now and we don’t want to become one of those spammy agencies.

We’re mainly looking for:
- better lead systems
- strategic outbound
- people who can actually bring qualified meetings

Curious how other agency owners are solving this stage.

Urgency ‼️

How are AEO/GEO agencies finding reliable commission-based appointment setters or lead gen partners right now?

We run an AEO/GEO agency and are exploring partnerships with people/agencies who can help generate qualified meetings in our niche. We’re open to either:
• appointment setters booking calls for our team, or
• full sales partners who also handle closing.

We’re considering a commission/revenue-share model instead of fixed retainers.

For agencies already doing this successfully:
- What platforms or systems are working best for finding quality partners?
- What commission structures usually work well?
- Any red flags we should avoid while hiring or partnering?

Would love to learn from people who’ve already scaled through partnerships like this.
