Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · No explicit self‑promo rule shown in the excerpt — be cautious and ask moderators before posting product/service promotion.
Links
The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: news, discussion, question
Title like a straight news headline or a concise first‑person question; link to a reputable source for news posts. Body is usually short (headline + 1–3 short paragraphs or a few lines). Tone factual, evidence‑based, low hype; posts with data, project examples, local impact, or practical homeowner advice get upvoted. Avoid promotional language and unverifiable claims — ask the mods before posting a product/firm pitch.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked October 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/solarenergy's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
