I created a new Reddit account and a new subreddit using this new account about a month ago for my website. For the first week, I didn't post anything anywhere, just lurked around subreddits relevant to my niche and joined a few and upvoted some posts in the second week. Then I started posting in my own subreddit - my niche is an image dominated niche, and everything I posted in my subreddit were 100% original, branded images owned by me.
Everything was going normal, I made about 6-7 posts including two videos that were also shared to my YouTube and Instagram. Two weeks goes by and both the account and subreddit are banned.
I requested subreddit unban, they said I need to first have my account unlocked and they redirected me to the account suspension appeals page. I sent a request there too and since received no response, it's been more than a week.
Should I consider making a new account and a new subreddit? The thing is, the handle of the banned subreddit was ideal, it's really undesirable to crap it up like this.
