selfpromotion - reddit.com (www.reddit.com), 🌱 Hackergrows links products to online discussions (hackergrows.com)

It makes sense that self-promotion is frowned upon on Reddit.

These are some points from Reddit guidelines:

• You should not just start submitting your links - it will be unwelcome and may be removed as spam, or your account will be banned as spam.
• You should submit from a variety of sources (a general rule of thumb is that 10% or less of your posting and conversation should link to your own content), talk to people in the comments (and not just on your own links), and generally be a good member of the community.

Obsessively replying to Reddit posts with links to your own products is not the best way to keep a conversation going. Nonetheless, there are cases when your product is a genuine solution for someone's problem.

We understand that good conversations should not be spoiled. There should exist a dedicated platform to post your products that answer questions from conversations online.

 

Isn't that what the message borads are supposed to do?
