How about KingSource's competitiors?

Submit a Link to Reddit.com

I stumbled upon a web site called reddit.com, which Alexa ranking is fairly high as globally ranked #114, US ranked #57 with more than 550,000 links.

Easily to signup, though confused to submit a link / submit a text to its site.

Error message: Reddit is under heavy load right now, sorry.


KingSource's link shows only Search by "KingSource", but not by "Aftermarket auto parts" which is in the submitted title. Have to check back later.

Reddit: the front page of the internet.
