What r/Dropshipping_Guide's rules say about promotion

3 of 12 published rules mention promotion, advertising or spam. Quoted from the community's own rules page, not summarised.

  1. No Spam or Self-Promotion

    rule 3 of 12

    Self-promotion, affiliate links, or promotional content is not allowed. This includes posting links to your store, services, or products without prior approval. Only members verified by us are allowed to post such content. Do not ask members to DM you or offer to DM others for any reason - all discussions must remain within public threads.

    Removal reason shown to posters: Spam or Self-Promotion

  2. No Low-Quality Content

    rule 5 of 12

    Posts must provide value to the community. Avoid generic questions like “How do I start dropshipping?” or posts that lack effort (e.g., "What is the best product to sell?"). Instead, ask specific questions or share detailed insights.
  3. No Marketplace Listings

    rule 7 of 12

    This is not a place to sell or advertise your dropshipping products, services, or courses. Posts that solicit sales or customers will be removed.

Is r/Dropshipping_Guide growing?

When was r/Dropshipping_Guide created?

r/Dropshipping_Guide was founded in November 2019 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/Dropshipping_Guide?

Of the last 100 posts we sampled, 85% came from distinct accounts; the newest was published Oct 9. A low share means a feed dominated by a handful of accounts (bots, mods, or one prolific poster) rather than a community.
