Can you promote in r/justpoetry?
Have a poem you want to share? Don't care about feedback? Don't want to be bogged down by rules and guidelines? Want to share poems that aren't yours? Or are yours? Come share poetry!
The short answer
Engage by sharing genuine poetry or helpful commentary first; if mentioning your product/company, keep it minimal and relevant (or omit it) to avoid appearing promotional.
What works here
- post your own poems
- share poems you didn't write
- post critiques and discussions
- light, relevant mentions optional
What gets posts removed
- overt or repeated advertising/solicitation (be conservative)
- making a post primarily to recruit customers or promote a product
- spammy or off-topic marketing

submission guidance
Sidebar notes 'Just poetry. And maybe a discussion' indicating the subreddit is primarily for poems and casual discussion rather than commercial activity.
no explicit rules
No explicit rules were returned that ban or regulate self-promotion, so anything promotional would be judged by community norms rather than stated policy.
