Posting rules, in plain words
Self-promotion is banned.
- Low quality: A question in a poor attempt to shill or sell a product or service, is someone's homework, surveys, and/or is looking for free marketing instead of paying for a professional.
- Spam: Non-relevant, advertising, and/or astroturfing posts will result in ban. This is your only warning.
Quoted from the community’s own published rules. Always re-read them before posting.
What a good comment looks like here
- — Directly answers the question with specific examples or advice.
- — Shares first-hand experience or professional insights.
- — Offers actionable strategies or tools.
- — Acknowledges the original poster's situation with empathy.
- — Provides detailed explanations rather than short, generic responses.
- — Sometimes includes a disclosure of affiliation if promoting a tool.

r/AskMarketing — frequently asked
How many members does r/AskMarketing have?
r/AskMarketing has 174,812 members as of our most recent crawl on Oct 19. Prowlo re-checks tracked communities on a rolling schedule, so this figure moves rather than sitting frozen at whatever it was when a scraper last ran.
Is r/AskMarketing growing?
Over the last ≈36 days r/AskMarketing changed by +3.3% — a gain of 5.6K members. We compare against the nearest snapshot we actually hold and state the real span rather than rounding it to a clean "30 days".
How active is r/AskMarketing?
Around 17.2 posts per day, measured from the newest 100 posts on Reddit, which span 5.8 days. Posting rate matters more than subscriber count when you're deciding where to spend your time — it determines how long your comment stays visible.
When was r/AskMarketing created?
r/AskMarketing was founded in December 2012 and is a public — anyone can post community. Age matters: an older community with steady growth has survived Reddit's moderation churn; a young one with a spike may not.
Who posts in r/AskMarketing?
Of the last 100 posts we sampled, 96% came from distinct accounts; the newest was published Oct 19. A low share means a feed dominated by a handful of accounts (bots, mods, or one prolific poster) rather than a community.
Can I promote my product in r/AskMarketing?
r/AskMarketing publishes 5 rules and 3 of them address promotion. The first, “Marketing question”, says: All posts should be related to marketing and should be a question. All other posts will be removed. Read the full rule text on this page and the community's rules page before posting — moderator enforcement is the thing that actually decides.
How do I monitor r/AskMarketing for mentions?
Hit Watch on this page. Prowlo starts crawling r/AskMarketing into your Dataset — every new post indexed and embedded, searchable semantically, queryable by your AI agent over MCP, and able to trigger keyword alerts in Slack. Prowlo is read-only; it never posts on your behalf.
Can my AI agent read r/AskMarketing's stats?
Yes. Everything on this page is one MCP tool call away: catalog_get_subreddit returns r/AskMarketing's members, growth, promo tolerance and similar communities as typed JSON — free, no credits. Connect your agent to api.prowlo.com/mcp and it can vet the community and start watching it in the same conversation.
