Tips for Founders

Do This

  • Frame your post around value to the community, not a sales pitch.
  • Read pinned posts and the sidebar before submitting anything.

Avoid This

  • Don't post repeatedly about the same product.
  • Don't copy-paste the same pitch you use everywhere — tailor it to this community.
  • Don't post without reading the pinned rules — strict mods remove first and ask later.

Community Rules

  1. Follow Reddit Content Policy

    All members should familiarize themselves with the Reddit Content Policy: https://www.redditinc.com/policies/content-policy

  2. No Links Allowed

    Any posts or comments with links are automatically removed.

  3. No Work Offers

    This is not a job board. This is not a recruitment tool. Please don't make posts or comments where you are looking to hire someone for SEO or are looking for employment or freelance job.

  4. Must be related to SEO

    Posts must be related to search engine optimisation, even just adjacent. For example if the entire post is around PPC, there are better subs for your post.

  5. Communicate kindly

    We must foster a healthy environment for all members. Disagreements will and should happen, but as long as everyone handles it respectfully and openly, there shouldn't be any problem.

  6. No Spamming

    No Spam, Self Promotion, Advertising, Brand Awareness etc including branded content, news roundups, posting how-to guides, community promotion

  7. No Soliciting and "Asking to DM"

    No Soliciting and "Asking to DM". Asking people to DM you will get your post/comment removed and will likely get you banned after a few times

  8. No Blogs, No Guides, No News, No Apps

    This is a Q&A forum, not a blog platform.

  9. No Low Quality Posts, Case Studies etc

    Repetitive Questions, for example, where to get free backlinks or roasting sites, how SEO has changed etc - will be removed
