Reddit Keyword Monitoring
and Alerting

Getting Reddit alerts with PageRadar is simple: Sign up for a free account, add the keywords you want to monitor (like your brand name or product terms), configure which subreddits to track (or search all of Reddit), and choose your notification preferences. You'll start receiving email and Slack alerts whenever your keywords are mentioned in Reddit discussions.

Setting up Reddit alerts takes just a few minutes: 1) Create a PageRadar account (free trial available), 2) Navigate to Reddit Mentions section, 3) Click "New Monitor" and enter your keyword, 4) Optionally specify subreddits to focus on, 5) Choose your monitoring frequency (hourly, daily, or weekly), 6) Enable email and/or Slack notifications. Your monitoring will start immediately, and you'll receive alerts for any new mentions.

You have full control over your alert settings. To customize: Go to your Reddit monitors list, click on any monitor to edit settings including check frequency, notification channels (email/Slack), and subreddit filters. To pause or turn off alerts temporarily, toggle the "Active" switch off for any monitor. To permanently stop alerts, simply delete the monitor. You can also adjust notification frequency from hourly to daily or weekly at any time.

Yes! When creating a monitor, you can specify exactly which subreddits to track. This is perfect for focusing on relevant communities where your audience is active. Simply enter subreddit names (one per line, without "r/") in the subreddit filter field. Leave it empty to search across all of Reddit. You can monitor multiple keywords with different subreddit filters for each.

You choose your monitoring frequency based on your needs: Hourly checks are ideal for active brand monitoring and time-sensitive campaigns. Daily checks work well for regular tracking of brand mentions and competitor activity. Weekly checks are perfect for casual monitoring or industry trends. You can change the frequency anytime, and different keywords can have different check frequencies.

Each alert includes comprehensive information: Post title and excerpt, Subreddit name where it was posted, Author username, Post score (upvotes/downvotes), Number of comments, Direct link to the Reddit post, Timestamp of when it was detected. Notifications are sent via both email and Slack (if configured), so you can respond quickly while discussions are active.

Absolutely! You can monitor as many keywords as your plan allows. The free plan includes up to 10 keywords, while paid plans support 50-100+ keywords depending on your subscription level. Each keyword can have its own configuration including specific subreddits, check frequency, and notification settings. This allows you to track your brand, products, competitors, and industry terms simultaneously.

PageRadar starts monitoring from the moment you activate each keyword and stores all mentions indefinitely. You can view complete history with timestamps, post scores, and comment counts. While we don't retroactively search for old mentions (before you started monitoring), all future mentions from activation onwards are captured and stored. Export your mention history anytime for analysis or reporting.
