r/business — frequently asked
How many members does r/business have?
r/business has 2,581,835 members as of our most recent crawl on Aug 2. 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/business growing?
We don't have 30 days of snapshot history for r/business yet, so we're not going to invent a growth number. We've been tracking it since Aug 2; the chart fills in as history accumulates.
How active is r/business?
We don't have a reliable posting-rate sample for r/business yet. Subscriber count alone is a poor guide to whether a community is active, so treat this one as unverified until the crawl accumulates more.
Can I promote my product in r/business?
Our read on r/business is medium promo tolerance. A product mention is fine when it genuinely answers the question asked, and unwelcome when it does not. Always read the sidebar rules before you post; moderator enforcement is the thing that actually decides.
