Self-promotion allowedLinks permitted

Can you promote here?

The rules clearly permit sharing your own product or project. Follow the format norms below, disclose that it is yours, and lead with substance: allowed is not the same as welcomed for low-effort pitches.

From the rules · Top posts are direct hiring/opportunity posts — include pay, deliverables, location, and a clear apply CTA; there’s no visible flair or weekly-promo requirement in the shown rules.

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: showcase, discussion, question

Title begins with HIRING / [HIRING] or “UGC” and a compact hook (pay or role). First-person from founders/brands, short–medium length with bullets for Pay / Deliverables / Apply. Tone: informal, transactional, recruitment-focused. What gets upvoted: clear pay, location, deliverables, and simple CTA (comment/DM). Avoid vague offers and missing compensation details.

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 August 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/techugc'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.
