Rules can change, so Rankhog keeps verification dates and the original public Reddit sources visible.

Rule summary

  • No Spam: We have a zero-tolerance policy for spam. Posting spam or promoting courses will result in a permanent ban for both the spammer and their friends.
  • No Astroturfing: Fake posts, shill accounts, and coordinated promotion will result in a permanent ban. If you're affiliated with something you're sharing, be transparent.
  • Be Nice: Treat all members with respect and professionalism. Harassment, hate speech, and discrimination are not tolerated. Be nice.
  • Provide Value: Ensure that your posts provide value to the community. Ask questions, share insights, and provide constructive feedback.
  • Limit Self-Promotion: Self-promotion must provide genuine value and is strictly limited to one post per project or domain every 10 days. Posts exceeding this limit will be removed, and repeat offenders will be banned.
  • Follow Reddit's Rules: Adhere to all of Reddit's site-wide rules and guidelines.
  • Flag Inappropriate Content: Use the report button to flag inappropriate content or rule violations to the moderators.

Works well

  • A write-up of a real churn or retention problem you solved, with the numbers and steps included
  • A specific question about pricing, onboarding, or a distribution channel that shows you have already tried the obvious things
  • A lesson from your own B2B SaaS journey, told honestly, with your affiliation disclosed in the post
  • Constructive feedback on another member's post, which builds trust before you share anything of your own
  • A breakdown of a metric or analytics approach that other B2B SaaS operators can copy

Avoid

  • Posting the same project or domain again within 10 days, which breaks “Limit Self-Promotion” and can get repeat offenders banned
  • Dropping a link to your product with no insight attached, which fails “Provide Value” and reads as spam
  • Hiding that you work on the product you are talking about, which breaks “No Astroturfing” and earns a permanent ban
  • Promoting a course in any form, since “No Spam” says courses get a permanent ban
  • Creating fake posts or shill accounts, or coordinating with friends to upvote your promotion, which “No Astroturfing” punishes with a permanent ban
  • Writing a low-effort question you could answer yourself with a quick search, which the moderators say they remove as low-effort content

What r/B2BSaaS Is For

r/B2BSaaS is a home for anyone working in a B2B SaaS business. The description lists the typical topics as conversions, retention, churn, metrics, analytics, engagement, inbound marketing, and distribution channels. People share advice, growth hacks, links, questions, and personal stories that others building B2B SaaS products can relate to. So the room is full of founders, marketers, and operators who want practical, work-related discussion, not pitches.

Rules That Matter Before Posting

Four rules decide most outcomes here. “No Spam” comes with a zero-tolerance warning, and it says posting spam or promoting courses gets a permanent ban for both the spammer and their friends. “No Astroturfing” bans fake posts, shill accounts, and coordinated promotion, and it asks you to be transparent if you are affiliated with something you share. “Provide Value” requires that your posts give the community something useful, like a question, an insight, or constructive feedback. “Limit Self-Promotion” allows one post per project or domain every 10 days, and only when it provides genuine value, with removals and bans for repeat offenders. “Be Nice” matters too, because respect and professionalism are required.

What To Post

A good post here teaches something. Write up a real lesson from your own B2B SaaS work, like what you learned about churn, retention, or a distribution channel, and include the details that make it useful to someone else. If you mention your own product or domain, say plainly that you are affiliated with it, and keep it to one post per project or domain every 10 days. Questions work well when they are specific and show you have done your homework, because the description explicitly invites questions. Constructive feedback on someone else's post is another safe way to build a presence before you ever share anything of your own.

What To Avoid

Spam is the fastest way out, and the ban extends to your friends, so do not coordinate with anyone. Astroturfing, meaning fake posts, shill accounts, or coordinated promotion, gets a permanent ban, and hiding your affiliation breaks the transparency expectation. Promoting courses is named directly as a bannable offense. Low-effort posts get removed, and self-promotion beyond one post per project or domain every 10 days gets removed too, with bans for repeat offenders. Harassment, hate speech, and discrimination are not tolerated under any circumstances.

Common questions about r/B2BSaaS

Can I post about my own product here?

Yes, but only under “Limit Self-Promotion”, which allows one post per project or domain every 10 days, and only if it provides genuine value.

Do I have to say I am the founder?

Yes. “No Astroturfing” says that if you are affiliated with something you are sharing, you should be transparent about it.

Can I share a link to my blog or tool?

The rules do not say links are banned, but a bare link with no insight will likely fail “Provide Value” and be removed as low-effort.

How long do I have to wait before posting about my product again?

Ten days per project or domain. Posting sooner gets the post removed, and repeat offenders get banned.

Is asking a question a safe way to start?

Yes, the description invites questions, and “Provide Value” encourages asking them, as long as the question is relevant to people working on B2B SaaS products.
