Rules can change, so Rankhog keeps verification dates and the original public Reddit sources visible.
Rule summary
- Only posts about Micro SaaS apps: Posts should stay focused on micro-SaaS products and small software businesses.
- Be respectful and ethical: Keep discussion respectful and avoid unethical tactics.
- Do not spam or troll: Spam, trolling, and low-value posting are not welcome.
- Share useful builder context: Product mentions work best when paired with lessons, numbers, or a concrete question.
Works well
- Small-team SaaS lessons with niche, MRR, channel, and constraint details.
- Questions about pricing, distribution, automation, support, or product scope.
- Build-in-public posts that explain what changed and what was learned.
- Transparent tool mentions that are not the whole point of the post.
Avoid
- Generic SaaS advice with no micro-SaaS angle.
- Spammy launch posts or repeated product drops.
- Unethical growth tactics.
- Posts with no niche, customer, or operating detail.
