Can you promote in r/bangalore?

Welcome to r/bangalore. The one and only official Reddit page of Namma Bengaluru.

The short answer

Avoid public promotional posts; if you must engage, provide helpful, on-topic answers and only mention your product/company sparingly with clear disclosure and preferably wait for or use the monthly classifieds/event sticky.

What works here

  • Answer city-related questions helpfully without sales language
  • Post sales/events/jobs/rental listings in the monthly sticky threads
  • Participate in general discussions about Bangalore when relevant

What gets posts removed

  • Posting standalone ads, solicitations, or customer-recruiting posts
  • Sharing social media/chat links (Instagram/WhatsApp/Telegram/etc.)
  • Making product-launch or sales posts outside the designated monthly threads
