What r/graphic_design's rules say about promotion
1 of 13 published rules mentions promotion, advertising or spam. Quoted from the community's own rules page, not summarised.
No job posts or self-promotion.
rule 1 of 13
Do NOT hire designers or promote your services here. Requests for unpaid work will be met with an instant ban. For jobs/recruitment, check the pinned job board or try r/designjobs, r/forhire, or r/jobs. Do not plug your social media. We don't allow surveys/polls. If you're sharing your own app, platform, resources, or plugins, they better be high-quality and relevant to design. Remember: It is okay to be a Reddit account with a website, it is NOT okay to be a website with a Reddit account.
