Can you promote in r/googlecloud?
The goto subreddit for Google Cloud Platform developers and enthusiasts.
The short answer
Answer questions helpfully first, disclose your affiliation if you mention your product, avoid posting sole advertisements or sales pitches, and be prepared to engage in follow-up discussion.
What works here
- Answering a question and mentioning your product as a helpful solution
- Soliciting feedback on a project or blog post if you actively engage
- Providing factual, working technical help (including code) even if using your tool
What gets posts removed
- Posting drive-by promotional posts whose only purpose is advertising
- Direct selling, posting job ads, vouchers, or recruiting customers
- Link-only blog posts or surveys without active community engagement
