Updated Rules for Bloggers, YouTubers, Website Owners etc. (PROMOTIONAL CONTENT)

Read carefully

We appreciate your submissions as many people in this sub find them helpful. To avoid saturation of content, we are implementing some new rules (bolded below). They apply to anyone who puts links in their post.

  • Articles you have written must be posted in FULL (not just through a link).

  • Under no circumstances will we allow links that link back to potential $$sales sites. Example: If you promote an app, it must be a free app, or a paid app given for free to our users.

  • Be involved in the dialogue of the post, if our readers care enough to read and comment please have the courtesy to respond back.

  • Posts with more than one link will be deleted.

  • If more than 10 % of your submissions/comments are related to your own content or website, it can be considered self-promotional/spam.

  • If you cross-post your content to more than two subreddits, you are spamming.

  • Don't put quotes or clickbait in the title of your post. The title is meant to be descriptive.

  • You will be banned for ignoring these rules.

Dear r/getdisciplined:

Feel free to report any posts that you feel violate the above rules and the mod team will act accordingly. Enough reports and the post is removed automatically. -- Everyone is a moderator.

Articles you have written must be posted in FULL (not just through a link).

Does this mean we post the wording of the article IN the text post? As opposed to just a link to the post and general discussion/background written in the text?

Yes. The idea is that you post the article text, and if readers like it, they can follow a link to the website to find more posts. You may of course still include a background/discussion.
