Can you promote in r/woocommerce?
WooCommerce is an open source, enterprise-level ecommerce plugin available for WordPress. It enables you to freely sell products from your WordPress site. Learn more at WooCommerce.com.
The short answer
Answer the user first with useful, specific help; only mention your product/company briefly and transparently if it directly solves the problem and you disclose your affiliation, avoid links unless they are clearly requested or allowed by mods.
What works here
- Provide technical help and troubleshooting
- Recommend plugins/services in comments when directly relevant
- Mention your product briefly with disclosure and without overt marketing
What gets posts removed
- Posting promotional posts or launches
- Soliciting customers, hiring, or running lead-gen/surveys
- Using affiliate/referral/monetized links or overly promotional language
