This community exists for one simple job, giving people a place to post and find products and services. The description says it plainly, your new place to post and or find products and services. That means the people posting here are founders, makers, and marketers who want to show what they built, and the people reading are hunting for tools and services they might use. It is one of the few spots on Reddit where promoting your own thing is the entire point, so you do not have to dress your post up as a story or a question. What you cannot do is treat it as a general feed, because the rules say content has to be relevant to products and services or it gets moderated.
The rules here are short and they all point the same way. “Irrelevant content” is the big one, because the sub is only for products and services and anything else gets moderated, with repeat offenses leading to a ban. “No spam” matters too, since posting your product more than once or twice is allowed but the mod team can hand out a temporary ban if they feel you are spamming. “No nsfw images or links” keeps the whole place safe for work, so every image and link you share has to be clean. “NO bullying” protects the posters, meaning you cannot use this sub to air grievances or critiques about other people's products. “No sexual harassment” sets the tone for comments, and the rule itself says do not say anything you would not say to your mother. Then there is “No Soap”, which is exactly what it sounds like and needs no explanation.
A good post here is a clear, honest introduction to one product or service. Say what it does, who it helps, and include a safe for work link so people can check it out. Since promotion is allowed and expected, you can be direct about the fact that you made it, which builds more trust than pretending you stumbled on it. Keep the tone friendly and skip any criticism of competitors, because this is not the place for critiques. If you want to post again later, space it out and bring something new each time, like an update or a new feature, so the mods never see it as spam.
The fastest way to get removed here is posting something that is not a product or a service, because irrelevant content gets moderated and repeat offenses get you banned. Spamming is the second trap, you can post your product once or twice, but if the mod team feels you are overdoing it you can get a temporary ban. Keep every image and link safe for work, since nsfw content is not welcome. Do not use the sub to criticize or complain about other products or people, that is bullying and it is banned. Keep your comments civil, the rule about harassment says do not say anything you would not say to your mother. And do not post soap.
