Can you promote in r/femalefounders?
Female founders unite! Feel free to share: 1. Articles and blog about issues related to women in business, tech, and startups. 2. Share your startup, indiebiz, and journey. 3. Startup tools and resources. 4. Questions about startups & business.
The short answer
When replying publicly, give helpful, on-topic value first, include a brief personal disclosure about your role and product before linking, and avoid URL shorteners or low-effort promotion.
What works here
- Share your startup, journey, tools, or articles with context
- Post questions and resources relevant to female founders
- Include links if you describe content and add value in the post/comment
What gets posts removed
- Posting link-only promotions or surveys with no context
- Using URL shorteners
- Low-quality self-promotional posts that look like ads
