What r/amazonprime Is For
This community is all about Amazon Prime. It is not an official Amazon support site, so people are not here to reach Amazon customer service. Based on the description alone, members discuss Prime as a topic, which could include benefits, content, deals, or general experiences. The rules suggest a space focused on conversation rather than promotion.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
The rule that matters most for anyone doing marketing is "No Self Promotion". It is stated twice in the same line, which tells you the moderators mean it. "No Referral Links" and "No URL Shortened Links" close off the common tactics people use to sneak traffic into a community. "No Asking for or Sharing of Game Keys" is narrow but worth knowing if your product touches gaming. "Don't be a jerk" is the catchall for tone, and it means civil participation is the only kind that survives.
What To Post
Honestly, there is very little a founder can post here that serves a marketing goal. The community bans self promotion outright and blocks referral links and shortened URLs. If you want to earn a place here, the only safe move is to join discussions about Amazon Prime as a genuine user. Answer questions, share opinions about Prime content or benefits, and be helpful. Do not link to your own site, your own product, or anything with a referral code. If you ever do share a link, make sure it is a full, direct URL with no tracking parameters or shorteners.
What To Avoid
Do not post any self promotional content. That is the first rule and it is stated twice, so it is the one most likely to get you removed. Do not include referral links or referral codes anywhere in your posts or comments. Do not use shortened URLs. Do not ask for or share game keys. And do not be rude or uncivil, because the community asks you to think of the human on the other side of the screen.
