community rules

Can you promote your product in r/laravel?

Yes, but only conditionally. Rule 3, "Don't Spam / No Clickbait," says, "Self-promotion is fine if it's valuable," but also says not to post back-to-back, not to drop links without engaging, and not to hijack threads to promote your own product.

The rules that cover promotion

Rule 3: Don't Spam / No Clickbait

"Self-promotion is fine if it's valuable- don't post back-to-back or drop links without engaging."

Rule 3: Don't Spam / No Clickbait

"No hijacking threads to promote your own product."

Rule 3: Don't Spam / No Clickbait

"Spam, low effort, or obvious AI generated content will be removed based on community reports, votes, and comments."

Rule 3: Don't Spam / No Clickbait

"Clickbait or poorly titled posts aren't allowed- titles should clearly convey the topic."

Quoted from the subreddit's own rules, snapshot from July 2026. Read all 5 rules on Reddit

What gets removed

  • Spam, low effort, or obvious AI generated content
  • Clickbait or poorly titled posts
  • Posts that are not directly related to Laravel
  • Framework comparison content

Safer ways to show up

  • Share something directly related to Laravel and make sure it is valuable
  • Engage with the community, do not just drop links
  • Avoid back-to-back promotional posts
  • Use clear, non-clickbait titles and keep discussion focused and relevant
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.
