Subreddit self promotion rules lookup
Search major founder and SaaS subreddits before posting. The safest answer is usually: help first, disclose clearly, and skip the link unless the thread asks for resources.

Static guidance for safer logged-out lookup URLs; full scans attach live thread evidence and subreddit-specific risk notes.
r/SaaS
High cautionFounder lessons, metrics, and specific questions fit better than product links.
Safer post angle: Ask for feedback on one growth lesson and keep the product link in your profile unless asked.
r/startups
High cautionBroad startup discussions punish drive-by promotion quickly.
Safer post angle: Share the problem, what you tried, and the result; avoid launch copy.
r/Entrepreneur
High cautionSelf-promotion needs useful context and usually works best as a story.
Safer post angle: Post a breakdown or mistake learned, not a tool pitch.
r/smallbusiness
Moderate cautionPractical operator advice can fit when it answers the question directly.
Safer post angle: Answer the question first, disclose affiliation, and link only when requested.
r/marketing
High cautionStrategy discussion fits; thin tool promotion does not.
Safer post angle: Share criteria, examples, or a teardown before naming any product.
r/SideProject
Moderate cautionFeedback requests and build-in-public posts are more natural here.
Safer post angle: Ask for product feedback with screenshots and specific questions.
r/ProductManagement
High cautionProfessional discussions favor process over product pitches.
Safer post angle: Share a neutral workflow or template, not a vendor recommendation.
r/webdev
High cautionTechnical usefulness matters more than startup promotion.
