Can you promote in r/linkedin?

This subreddit is run by the community, not LinkedIn. It's your space to get the most out of the platform: grow your career, boost your job search, ask questions, or swap tips. Having account issues? Totally understand the frustration. Check the Community Bookmarks. If your account's been restricted and support has made a final decision, we can't change the outcome here. Best to reply to your case with questions. If you have account access issues, please check out the Community Bookmarks.

The short answer

Engage helpfully without linking or overt selling, disclose affiliation if relevant, and keep posts focused on advice or critiques rather than promotions.

What works here

  • participate in discussions and give free advice
  • ask for or offer profile critiques (no paid reviews)
  • share your LinkedIn profile link only when requesting feedback
  • general product mention for transparency without links or sales pitch

What gets posts removed

  • posting external links (banned) or promotional copy
  • selling LinkedIn Premium, paid resume reviews, or services
  • sharing third-party scripts/plugins or AI auto-engagement tools
  • using the subreddit to solicit customers or leads
