Posts must be related to search engine optimization, even just adjacent. For example if the entire post is around PPC, there are better subs for your post. - No Self-Promotion/Backlinks
If you're here to just link people to your content or sell your or your agencies services, your contribution is not welcome. - No Harassment/Toxicity

What the written rules don't show
- Unpublished minimums. Many communities remove posts from new or low-karma accounts through AutoModerator settings that are not on the rules page, often before a moderator sees them.
- Reddit's own filters. Reddit's site-wide spam filters can remove posts from accounts that mostly share links to their own site, in any community.
- The community's norms. Many communities see themselves as peers, not an audience: post where you already take part, and make the post worth reading without the link.
