Hi, I’m focusing on generating content for a few communities that I feel can be successful and have less content than I expected:

EDIT: I did not create any of those communities

I would encourage anyone to participate if you like those topics.

Do you know any other niche-but-not-too-niche communities in which we could focus efforts?
Please, don’t post very long lists, I’m already subscribed to almost 300 communities and the idea is to focus on a few ones.

Thanks!

EDIT: Added descriptions for each community.

    I’m really late to this because I’m going through the community posts in order, but I wouldn’t be pessimistic just yet. I’ve created a number of communities I missed from Reddit and they grew really well - they’re photo/screenshot communities though.

    Confidently_incorrect is 3 weeks old, has 27 posts and 2.3k subs.

    Terrible estate agent photos is 3 weeks old. 46 posts, 3.5k subs.

    Don’t you know who I am? is 2 months old, 35 posts and 2.5k subs.

    Clever comebacks is only a week old; 7 posts and 108 subs. I haven’t even listed that on this community yet and that where a lot of my subscribers came from for the others.

    !badrealestate is the only community that anyone other than me has made a post in. I was just really diligent with posting - maybe twice a day for the first few days, then once everyday, slowing down to every other day. The only communities I’ve created that haven’t grown are the ones I haven’t posted in daily. You should keep at it - the people will come eventually!
