community rules
Can you promote your product in r/remotework?
You should not promote your product with direct blog links, because Rule 1, "No Blog Spam," says, "we're removing any direct links to blogs." The rules do not explicitly mention product promotion more broadly, but posts that function like job posts are barred by Rule 2, and narrowly job-specific posts are barred by Rule 3.
The rules that cover promotion
Rule 1: No Blog Spam
"Content should live in the subreddit. To help combat spam, we're removing any direct links to blogs."
Rule 2: No Job Posts
"This is not a job board."
Rule 3: No job-specific advice posts
"this subreddit is for remote work as a whole."
