Think you're right but how do you get around what I like to call the
Reddit Rage, aka being banned for promoting stuff even if it makes total sense for their niche 😁The key is to provide upfront value then slide into self promotion in the end. Harry wrote a great piece about it here: https://marketingexamples.com/content/self-promote-on-reddit
Yeah I still think it can go both ways but it definitely makes it a bit more likely you're not gonna get banned immediately
I've had great success (200 upvotes, multiple awards in a single post) with certain subreddits but the same post and my account still got banned for no reasons.
Ultimately, you are at the mercy of these mods.
Example: 117 upvotes but post is still removed for "violations".
Shared this as a Twitter thread as I faced issues with posting here. Would like to know your thought.
