Quoted from the subreddit's own rules, snapshot from July 2026. Read all 7 rules on Reddit

What gets removed

  • Self-promotional posts
  • Blog spam
  • Text posts that are not very relevant or do not have commentary
  • Surveys, requests for DMs, and posts asking for investors or partners

Safer ways to show up

  • Share a text post that is very relevant to the subreddit and includes commentary
  • Post tips, tricks, or fundamentals about growing a business, without promoting yourself
  • Join discussions with useful advice instead of asking people to DM you
  • Avoid blog spam, surveys, AI or crypto business posts, and investor or partner requests
Whatever the written rules say, the pattern that gets promo removed everywhere is the same: batches of similar comments, reused wording, and necro-posting on old threads. A promotional mention only has value if it survives, so pace matters more than volume. We measured this the expensive way: 70% of bought pool comments were removed within two weeks.
