|----------| | 90/10 principle | 90% value, 10% promotional | | Self-promotion | Max 1 in 6 posts promotional | | Subreddit rules | Always check sidebar before posting | | Flair | Required by many subs; wrong flair = removal | | Title format | Some subs require [tags]; check top posts |

Post Structure

Title

Concise, specific, accurate--no clickbait
Match subreddit format (e.g., [Discussion], [Question])
Factual; save opinions for body/comments

Body

Value-first: Lead with help, insight, or story
Casual, friendly tone--like talking to a friend
Engagement: Open-ended questions, invite discussion
Formatting: Markdown supported; use lists, headers for readability

Content Types

Type	Use
Experience sharing	Highest engagement; authentic stories
Q&A	Build trust; answer questions
Case study	Product value; must be transparent
Tool recommendation	Context + honest pros/cons

Algorithm Factors

Upvote/downvote ratio matters more than raw score
Early engagement weighs more; post at peak hours
Karma: 100-1000+ recommended before promotional posts
Author interaction: Reply to comments; boosts ranking

Formatting (Markdown)

Bold: **text**
Italic: *text*
Lists: - or 1.
Links: [text](url)

Output Format

When generating Reddit copy, provide:

Title (subreddit-appropriate)
Body (value-driven, formatted)
Suggested flair (if known)
Subreddit reminder: "Verify rules before posting"
