First, some background: I just joined yesterday; I found this website from /r/RedditAlternatives.

I think one of the biggest hindrances to growth that any application or website will face when positioning itself as an alternative to Reddit is going to be people's fear of readjusting to a relatively new, and certainly much smaller, community. I joined Reddit back in 2011, and while I certainly wasn't a senior member there, I was definitely present for many of the major transitions Reddit went through. It's only been recently (within the last year), that I've been unhappy with Reddit. Despite my unhappiness, I found myself continually resigning my reservations as me being overly critical. However, any of those times I would have been more than willing to signup for whatever alternative existed had I truly believed I would encounter the same diversity of content and opinion as is (or at least used to be) present on Reddit.

With that said, my recommendation for this community is to simply continue contributing and engaging as you currently are. What convinced me to join Snapzu yesterday was the fact that there seemed to be genuinely interesting conversations occurring here, and that's exactly what I was hoping to find! Assuming people keep the conversations flowing and continue building out your tribes, then the only other thing to consider is how exactly to raise people's awareness to the fact that Snapzu exists. If raising awareness to Snapzu's existence is truly what you want, then continuing to engage the Reddit community and invite members over to Snapzu seems to be a pretty sound strategy. It's only a matter of time...
