Tips for Posting on Reddit
Learn from successful founders and Reddit best practices to maximize your post engagement.
1 Join Conversations, Don't Self-Promote
OpenPhone's co-founder Daryna Kulya found success by monitoring relevant keywords and joining existing conversations naturally. Instead of cold posting, they responded to people asking questions about business communication tools. As Daryna said: "I set up alerts for relevant industry and competitor terms using Notifier for Reddit. This way, it was more natural for me to talk about OpenPhone as a solution."

2 Tell Your Story, Not Your Pitch
Reddit users, especially founders and entrepreneurs, want to hear authentic journeys. OpenPhone shared their challenges and learnings rather than product features. Create value by writing posts or articles that answer common questions in your industry.
3 Understand Each Subreddit's Culture
Before posting, spend time reading top posts and comments to understand the community's norms and rules. Each subreddit has its own cultureâwhat works in r/Entrepreneur might not work in r/startups. Always read and follow the subreddit's posting guidelines to avoid removal.
4 Craft Compelling, Honest Titles
Your title is criticalâmake it clear, engaging, and authentic. Avoid clickbait at all costs. Provide a concise summary of what readers will get. Good examples: "How we got our first 100 customers using Reddit" or "I analyzed 10,000 posts to find the best time to post in r/Entrepreneur"
5 Post at Optimal Times
Timing matters! Use the activity heatmap above to find when r/Entrepreneur is most active. Generally, posting between 6:00-8:00 AM Eastern Time on weekdays catches both European and U.S. audiences. But every subreddit is differentâcheck the data specific to your target community.
6 Format for Readability
Use headers, bullet points, and short paragraphs to make your post scannable. Include relevant images or videos when appropriate. Reddit supports markdown formattingâuse it to structure your content with bold text, lists, and sections.
7 Engage After Posting
Don't post and ghost! Actively respond to comments and questions within the first hour. This interaction signals to Reddit's algorithm that your post is generating engagement, which can boost its visibility. Plus, it builds trust and shows you're genuinely interested in the conversation.
8 Use Appropriate Flair and Tags
Many subreddits require post flair to categorize content. Using the correct flair helps users find your post and shows you understand the community. Some subreddits won't even display your post without proper flair.
9 Build Credibility Over Time
Don't expect overnight success. Consistently share valuable content and engage respectfully to build reputation. OpenPhone spent months contributing to discussions before seeing significant results. A credible account with a history of helpful contributions will be received much better than a new account making its first post.
10 Monitor Adjacent Topics
OpenPhone didn't just monitor "business phone" keywordsâthey also tracked adjacent topics like "remote work communication" and "team collaboration." This broader approach gave them more opportunities to naturally contribute value. Think about related problems your audience has, not just direct product mentions.
đĄ Pro Tip: Use Notifier.so to monitor relevant keywords in r/Entrepreneur so you never miss an opportunity to join authentic conversations.

Community Rules & Guidelines
Submission/commenting Rules:
1) 10 comment karma in /r/Entrepreneur to post
To lead a discussion in /r/Entrepreneur, we require a minimum of 10 comment karma within our subreddit. This is earned by contributing thoughtful comments to others' discussions. This policy not only helps reduce spam but ensures that you understand the community's dynamicsâwhat types of posts resonate, and what might be overlooked or poorly received.
Our goal is to help your posts gain traction. Take some time to engage with the community and discover how we can best support you.
2) No Promotion
Posts and comments must NOT be made for the primary purpose of selling or promoting yourself, your company or any service.
Dropping URLs, asking users to DM you, check your profile, or comment for private resources will all lead to a permanent ban.
It is acceptable to cite your sources, however, there should not be an explicit solicitation, advertisement, or clear promotion for the intent of awareness.
3) No Personal Attacks
Constructive criticism of ideas, concepts, approaches, or plans is encouraged. Embracing reality, even when it is challenging, is a crucial aspect of business. However, personal attacks, hostility, or incitement to conflict are strictly prohibited and will not be tolerated in this community.

4) Links Allowed as Supporting Material ONLY
This rule exists to foster meaningful discussion. If you wish to share links, they must be directly relevant, clearly described, and essential to the conversation. Your post should include sufficient context within Reddit to enable a productive dialogue.
5) No âHow To Get Rich Quickâ posts
This community is NOT for quick money schemes. Entrepreneurship is often a challenging and demanding journey, requiring effort, hard work, grit, and determination. Posts asking how to make $X, without a specific or reasonable idea, will not be tolerated, as they do not contribute meaningfully to the discussions in this subreddit.
6) Avoid unprofessional communication
As a professional subreddit, we expect all members to uphold a standard of reasonable decorum. Treat fellow entrepreneurs with the same respect you would show a colleague. While we don't have an HR department, thatâs no excuse for aggressive, foul, or unprofessional behavior. NSFW topics are permitted, but they must be clearly labeled. When in doubt, label it.
AI-generated content is not acceptable to be posted. If your posts or comments were generated with AI, you may face a permanent ban.
7) No free offerings threads
Our "Thank You Thursday" threads are designated for any promotions, offers, or discounts you wish to share with the community. Please refrain from posting free offerings outside of this weekly thread that is pinned to the top of the community. Any such posts made elsewhere will be removed.
8) Follow the Rules of Reddit
They apply everywhere on Reddit. Also consider Reddiquette The latter isn't mandatory but might be used in considering the intent of your post.
9) Unsolicited Opinions and Duplicate Thoughts
Posts in Entrepreneur should be unique. If a duplicate post can be found on one or more similar subreddits or on a blog, then it's not a good fit for this subreddit.
Please refrain from using this community as your personal blog. There is no need to share opinions or use this space as a diary for daydreams, thoughts, or subjective reflections.
10) No Investment Solicitation
Posts about specific investments, such as cryptocurrency, are not permitted. Please refrain from soliciting, promoting, or offering any form of investment advice. There are other subreddits better suited for those discussions.
