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 culture—what 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 critical—make 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/SaaS"

5 Post at Optimal Times

Timing matters! Use the activity heatmap above to find when r/SaaS 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 different—check 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 formatting—use 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" keywords—they 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.

💡 Pro Tip: Use Notifier.so to monitor relevant keywords in r/SaaS so you never miss an opportunity to join authentic conversations.

Community Rules & Guidelines

About

Discussions and useful links for SaaS owners, online business owners, and more.

Rules

1.Submission Guidelines

Follow the Reddit site-wide rules and please treat others with respect, stay on-topic, and avoid non-productive self-promotion.

No spam.

2.No Direct Sales Or Non-Productive Self-Promotion

Please don’t mention your SaaS/blog/company unless it’s relevant and actually helpful for someone reading. Overdoing it results in a ban.

Direct sales that are unsolicited are forbidden as well. No PM requests please.

3.Posting SaaS Relevant Content Only

Please keep the discussions oriented around SaaS, tech companies, business in general or even personal aspects of the business world.

If posts are not somehow helping anyone in regards to the topic, removals and bans will be enforced.

4.Blog Posts Rules

You may submit your blog post as long as the main ideas are in the Reddit post.

You need to provide value to people through your post and not simply present what you're talking about in your article.

The more value you provide in the body of the Reddit post, the safer it is to say that it won't be removed.

The only way a link is allowed is at the end of the post (“Originally posted here”), unless highly relevant (don't abuse this).

Anything else will be removed/banned.

5.Be Kind And Supportive — Criticise Ideas, Not People

At the end of the day, we’re all trying to make the world better for us and for those around us.

"Be nice and supportive" is common sense. Try to criticise objectively and not personally.

6.Other Bad Behaviour

Doxing－Posting or seeking personal information, dox attempts or threats
Flooding－Posting excessively frequently
Duplicates－Reposting news or information
Plagiarism－Not giving credit properly
Hyping－Pushing speculative, volatile, illiquid, or meme investments, especially flippantly, tersely, or implying huge returns
Missing－Disappearing after posting a discussion, posting for another with inadequate information

7.Politicizing

We don't allow:

Moralizing issues
Petitions or calls-to-action
Political discussions
Political baiting
Soapboxing
