What its rules say about promotion
No blatant self promotion
Please remember that the purpose of this sub is discussion and feedback, not self promotion. If you want notes on whether your ideas work or suggestions for improvement, this community is happy to oblige. If you're only here to promote services or farm clicks, your post will likely be removed as spam.
All 9 rules of r/Songwriters
- Be honest but civil
Be nice, guys. Don't feed or be a troll. No one is owed any feedback; always show gratitude. - No organized upvoting
Organized inflation of attention on a post or comment is strictly forbidden and will result in a ban. Your creation will get traction on its own. - One Song Per day
Please only post once per day. Multiple posts a day from the same user will be considered spam. Repeated violation may result in a suspension or ban. - No Scraps
Short clips and unfinished drafts will be considered spam, ie an out-of-context guitar riff or a 4-line verse fragment. WIPs are fine, but should be closer to complete than not. - Original Music Only
Please only post original work. No covers, remixes, or posting on behalf of other artists. - No blatant self promotion

If you have thoughts or anything you’d like to share about the policies (agreement, disagreement, contentment, outrage, etc), feel free to reach out via PM or messaging the mods. Otherwise, happy (or sad, or angry) songwriting to everyone! Let's rock. - 9. Read the FAQ
