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

Rule summary

  • No posting of services.: Visit https://www.reddit.com/advertising for advertising options.
  • No posting of seminars.: Visit https://www.reddit.com/advertising for advertising options.
  • No self-promotion.: Visit https://www.reddit.com/advertising for advertising options.
  • No Surveys/Feedback/Reviews: Surveys/Feedback/Reviews
  • No AI Generated Posts: Posts that have clearly been generated by ChatGPT or another chatbot will be deleted and user banned.

Works well

  • Start a text discussion about a specific digital marketing tactic you tried, focusing on what you learned and inviting other marketers to share their experience.
  • Ask a real question about a platform change or a campaign challenge you are facing, and frame it as a professional conversation rather than a pitch.
  • Share a breakdown of a marketing concept or trend in your own words, with no links to your own site or service.

Avoid

  • Do not post your services, seminars, or any self-promotional links, as the rules say to visit reddit advertising instead.
  • Do not post surveys, feedback requests, or reviews.
  • Do not post AI-generated content, as it will be deleted and you will be banned.

What r/DigitalMarketing Is For

How r/DigitalMarketing Works

This is a place for digital marketers to talk shop. The public description is blunt about it: no promotional posts, and they mean it. Based on the rules, the room is for professional discussion, not for selling services, posting seminars, or promoting yourself.

Rules That Matter Before Posting

The rules that decide whether a post survives are "No posting of services.", "No posting of seminars.", "No self-promotion.", "No Surveys/Feedback/Reviews", and "No AI Generated Posts". The first three all point you to reddit advertising instead of letting you post promotional content. The last one is strict, because it says AI-generated posts will be deleted and the user banned.

What To Post

A good post here is real talk about digital marketing. You can share an observation from your own work, ask a thoughtful question about a campaign or channel, or discuss a trend you are seeing. The key is to keep it free of any promotion for your own services or seminars, and to write it yourself rather than using AI.

What To Avoid

Don't post any services, seminars, or self-promotional links, because the rules say to use reddit advertising instead. Don't post surveys, feedback requests, or reviews. And don't post anything generated by ChatGPT or another chatbot, because the rule says such posts will be deleted and the user banned.
