Can you promote in r/website?
Share the latest and greatest websites, from popular to niche and everything in between.
The short answer
Do not promote your product or post links publicly; offer free, neutral help and direct any promotional outreach to the pinned self-promotion thread or to private channels only after permission.
What works here
- Give neutral help or feedback about websites
- Mention common builders/hosting when helping users (contextual)
- Post in the pinned self-promotion thread for promotional content
What gets posts removed
- Posting product links or promotional posts
- Soliciting customers, leads, or referrals in regular posts/comments
- Posting or linking to commercial/shopping websites outside allowed context
Where this comes from
No self-promotion except in thread
Self-promotion is explicitly allowed only in the pinned self-promotion thread, so promotional replies elsewhere are disallowed.
No advertisements or spam
The rules ban advertisements, spam, and referral links which covers soliciting visits or sales.
No shopping or commercial websites
Commercial sites and services may not be posted; only non-promotional mentions of common builders are allowed when helping.
Contextual mentions allowed
Linking to common website builders/hosting is accepted only in the context of helping others build a website, not as advertising.
