Posted February 27Feb 27 Administrators Reddit can be a useful platform for promoting your forum, with several subreddits dedicated to forum promotion and community sharing. Regularly posting in these subreddits can help increase visibility and attract new members who are interested in your forum’s niche. There are also various promotion-friendly subreddits where it’s acceptable to mention or showcase your forum, especially when it’s relevant to the discussion. I’ll continue to update this list if I discover more subreddits that allow forum advertising. r/SaaSSales r/SaaSMarketing r/zerotosaas r/TestMyApp r/startups\_promotion r/startup\_resources r/Startup\_Ideas r/SideProject r/SaaSroasting r/newproducts r/microsaas r/micro\_saas r/indiehackers r/indiebiz r/IMadeThis r/SaaS r/webdev r/hwstartups r/smallbusiness r/promotereddit r/freepromote r/Business\_Ideas r/Entrepreneur r/startups r/roastmystartup https://www.reddit.com/r/Entrepreneur/s/BkeyCk5Emi r/StartupLaunches/ https://www.reddit.com/r/startups/s/6cGurnbzoL https://www.reddit.com/r/startups_promotion/s/sRRh3BnWxN https://www.reddit.com/r/SideProject/s/iy9zFxpOxz https://www.reddit.com/r/SideProject/s/pFha0Mvb9g https://www.reddit.com/r/SaaS/s/LOXOQVjF2e https://www.reddit.com/r/SaaS/s/I34vn70aes https://www.reddit.com/r/SaaS/s/fADCIndGJY https://www.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/s/qwpU5UOJCD https://www.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/s/xKfShiLAWL https://www.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/s/Y8woZr7RwA https://www.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/s/IfBSfTOlAp https://www.reddit.com/r/websitefeedback/s/iIvkDBhtXb https://www.reddit.com/r/Websites/s/kbKE5vbtZF https://www.reddit.com/r/web_design/s/tFmkskKNKX https://www.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/s/jDk3bvIrKc https://www.reddit.com/r/SaaS/s/3eN56Akl2e https://www.reddit.com/r/SaaS/s/8yQ5EOxied https://www.reddit.com/r/thesidehustle/s/PSxF3faC6X https://www.reddit.com/r/neocities/s/mnOSVHH3LV https://www.reddit.com/r/SaaS/s/6qbAVb5nkd https://www.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/s/sOr0eEvPdC https://www.reddit.com/r/SaaS/s/2toL2rjXvz https://www.reddit.com/r/SideProject/s/ZZxMxfClZm https://www.reddit.com/r/SideProject/s/XyxZX6XUTp https://www.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/s/9SVSvt7n2T https://www.reddit.com/r/website/s/RzC5Co5zA6 https://www.reddit.com/r/SaaS/s/Omg1h868AI https://www.reddit.com/r/SideProject/s/XWxa2GE5Ta Edited June 3Jun 3 by Cpvr Owner of a Virtual Pets Forum.
March 2Mar 2 Content Team Thank you for sharing links to promotional friendly sub reddits! There used to be r/forums that I promoted some old sites, but it hasn't been maintained and so you can't post new threads without approval unfortunately so I didn't know exactly where I could promote my websites. Love roleplaying games? So do we on RPG Haven!
March 2Mar 2 Thanks for this. Are you aware of any gaming subreddits that are friendly for forum promotion?
March 3Mar 3 Content Team Thanks for this. Are you aware of any gaming subreddits that are friendly for forum promotion? I would reach out to the moderators of some gaming subreddits. I was able to promote Gex Forums on r/gex since I asked the head moderator if I could and he gave me the go to. He even joined my forum as well too! Love roleplaying games? So do we on RPG Haven!
March 5Mar 5 Reddit has been decent in my efforts to promote my forum. However you need to watch your karma, and keep your account in good standing, so be careful posting links on new accounts. Online Poker Forums - Home Game Leaderboards - Sign Up Bonuses

How do you find subreddits that are within your niche. For you and I, we both have niches with limited subreddits.
March 5Mar 5 Content Team How do you find subreddits that are within your niche. For you and I, we both have niches with limited subreddits. Trust me bro, there's a subreddit for pretty much everything. You've got a gaming forum which there's numerous subs catered to gaming. There is r/gaming, r/videogames, r/retrogaming, and not to mention the subs that are for specific games like r/battlefield, r/gta etc. If you have good karma reach out to moderators of these subs and see if they're willing to let you promote your forum. The worst case scenario is they say no. Love roleplaying games? So do we on RPG Haven!

March 6Mar 6 Content Team Very interesting. So reach out to mods before posting? I have a 32k karma account, so that should be reputable I would think Yeah definitely reach out to mods before posting links, I reached out to the mods on r/gex to see if I could share a link to my forum and they were okay with it. Good luck! You might have better luck in the GTA sub or Battlefield sub than the main gaming subs but it doesn't hurt to reach out. Also check out the subs Cpvr listed too, it's always a good idea to promote your forum anywhere and everywhere possible. Love roleplaying games? So do we on RPG Haven!
March 16Mar 16 Thank you for the list, recently I am most active in reddit and reddit is a good source for traffic. Many people using it effectively for marketing purpose.

March 22Mar 22 Content Team You have a whole list of amazing resources one could leverage on to carry out promotional campaigns on reddit.

April 26Apr 26 Content Team It's funny, I randomly came across a post on r/redditalternatives yesterday and I didn't even realize you promoted the sub in this thread lol. It was on a post about Mark Zuckerberg saying "social media is over." I'm happy to see this list keeps getting bigger, thank you again for sharing these links with us [mention=5]Cpvr[/mention]!

June 9Jun 9 Content Team Some of the subreddits listed only accept links to subreddits unfortunately such as r/freepromote and r/promotereddit. But I'm glad you keep updating this list! :) Love roleplaying games? So do we on RPG Haven!
June 26Jun 26 Content Team Thanks for that wonderful list. Subreddits can be very useful in promoting forums and interacting with potential members but it's better to follow the rules and guidelines of the subreddit before posting. Free Online Money Check this out: https://rankedtopsites.com/
July 1Jul 1 I do not like reddit and this is why the chances are that I may never use it. I think that companies and platforms like reddit need to follow their own rules when it comes to content policy. They do not follow their own rules and this has been a really major problem with companies like reddit.
