Can you promote in r/desitravellers?

Welcome to r/desitravellers, where the love for travel meets the vibrant tapestry of Desi Travellers from India, Pakistan and the rest of South Asia. Our community is dedicated to connecting, inspiring, and supporting Desi travelers and document their travels across the globe!

The short answer

Engage as a helpful community member first: answer questions or provide travel-specific value, include location details, meet karma/account-age requirements, and keep any company/product mention brief and clearly secondary.

What works here

  • Posting travel-related advice, photos or trip reports with location
  • Answering questions and participating in discussions relevant to travel

What gets posts removed

  • Overt advertising, solicitation, or heavy product pitches
  • Posting without meeting minimum karma (80) and account age (14 days)
  • Irrelevant posts (non-travel) or media like reels

Where this comes from

View the current official rules on Reddit

Travel-only content requirement

All content must be related to Travel — ensure posts are travel-relevant to avoid removal.

Location required for photos/videos

When posting photos or videos you must include the name of the location — include location when replying with leads about places.

No reels/media restriction

Reels are not allowed — avoid Instagram-style promotional reels.

Anti-spam barrier

Minimum karma 80 and account age 14 days to post — new accounts or low-karma accounts cannot post.

No explicit promotion policy present

Rules do not explicitly permit or prohibit self-promotion, so be conservative and prioritize helpful, non-commercial participation.
