Can you promote in r/homeschooling?

Share homeschooling resources, ideas and advice, as well as your questions, reflections and experiences. Caters to both experienced homeschooling parents and students, as well as newbies who have taken on the challenge as a result of COVID-19.

The short answer

Engage as a helpful community member, provide value first, disclose your affiliation briefly, avoid promotional language or calls-to-action, and use community threads if offered.

What works here

  • Answer questions and give advice about homeschooling tools
  • Discuss apps/learning tools when adding value or expertise
  • Share product info with clear disclosure and non-promotional tone

What gets posts removed

  • Posting overt sales pitches or promotional calls-to-action
  • Repeatedly linking to your product or recruiting customers
  • Heavy self-promotion without prior community participation
