我们花了大约四个月的后端工程工作来设置系统,以支持 Google Identity 服务。与此同时,Reddit 还在桌面平台上开发了前端功能。由于 Reddit 必须重构大多数身份验证和注册流程,因此移动网络、Android 和 iOS 平台分别需要大约一到两个月才能完成实现。
为了验证这一机遇,Reddit 首先在单一平台上确认“使用 Google 帐号登录”按钮的基础技术,然后将该功能扩展到所有支持的平台,最后投资于一键式模块。端到端地,Reddit 花了大约一年的规划、协调和发布支持才能向所有用户推出该功能。
解决方案和结果
Reddit 之所以选择 Google Identity 服务,是因为其在隐私保护方面的承诺值得信赖,仅将登录用户数据用于身份验证、流程完善和业界广泛采用。
Reddit 提供一种可轻松验证凭据的方法,有效利用“使用 Google 帐号登录”功能,为新用户减少注册和登录障碍。此外,全新的一键快捷功能在用户退出时提醒他们登录,帮助 Reddit 保持用户偏好和个性化设置,这是额外的好处。
自从在 Reddit 上集成 Google Identity 服务以来,“使用 Google 帐号登录”功能将总体用户注册量增加了 50%,而 One Tap 使注册量又增加了 90%,使得平台转化率总和提高了 185% 。虽然“使用 Google 帐号登录”是基础产品,但“一键登录”是关键功能,大大简化了用户的注册和登录 Reddit 流程。
“使用 Google 帐号登录”功能不仅简化了 Reddit 的注册流程,还可让用户以新的方式保护自己的帐号。此外,每个“使用 Google 帐号登录”功能帐号都附有经过验证的用户电子邮件地址,可缓解未验证帐号丢失带来的痛点。随着电子邮件覆盖率的提高,Reddit 现在有了另一个可靠的渠道,方便用户就帐号事宜与用户沟通。

These are critical components as we continue to improve the user experience, establish long-term relationships with our users, and drive long-term retention\" \nYee Chen \nDirector of Product \nReddit\n\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\nImplementing the Sign in with Google button and One Tap prompt together increased conversion by almost 2X \nFor new sign ups:\n\n- 50% - 60% increase in sign ups with the button (Desktop and Android)\n- 90% increase in sign ups with One Tap (Desktop)\n\nFor returning visitors:\n\n- 10% - 22% increase in sign ins with One Tap (Desktop and Android)\n- 100% increase in sign ins with One Tap (Mobile Web)\n\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\nChallenges\n----------\n\nReddit has always valued their users' privacy and has never required an email address or a real name to create an account. While this is a valuable privacy quality for users, it has the potential to cause certain operational issues. For example, without a verified email address, there is no method for a user to recover their account if they forget their password.\n\nAdditionally, the standard registration process can have friction points that result in dropoff during user enrollment. For example, the pressure of having to create a seemingly clever username on the spot results in an approximate 30% dropoff rate.\n\nIntegration\n-----------\n\nIt took approximately four months of backend engineering work to set up the system to support Google Identity Services. In parallel, Reddit also developed the frontend feature on the desktop platform. Mobile web, Android and iOS platforms all took approximately one to two months each to implement, as Reddit had to refactor most of the authentication and signup flows.\n\nReddit took an incremental approach to validate the opportunity by confirming the underlying technology first for the Sign in with Google button on a single platform, then expanded the feature on all supported platforms, and eventually investing in the One Tap module. End-to-end, it took Reddit about a year of planning, coordination, and launch support to roll the feature out to all users.\n\nSolution and Results\n--------------------\n\nReddit chose Google Identity Services because of its trusted privacy commitments, never using signed in user data other than for the authentication moment, well-documented processes, and wide adoption across the industry. \n\nReddit effectively leveraged Sign in with Google to reduce the registration and login friction for new users by providing a method that easily validates credentials. Furthermore, the new One Tap feature reminds users to log in when they are logged out, helping Reddit maintain user preferences and personalized settings---an added bonus. \n\nSince integrating Google Identity Services on Reddit, Sign in with Google has increased overall user sign ups by 50%, while One Tap increased sign ups by another 90%, resulting in a combined 185% increase in platform conversion. While Sign in with Google was the foundational product, One Tap was the critical feature that made it a much more streamlined process for users to sign up and sign in to Reddit. \n\nSign in with Google not only made the signup process on Reddit easier, but it also allowed users to secure their accounts in a new way. Additionally, every Sign in with Google account comes with a verified user email, which mitigates pain points for lost unverified accounts. With improved email coverage, Reddit also now has another dependable channel for communicating with users about their accounts."]]
