How this works
Reddit runs a four-layer spam defense, and it rarely tells you when you have tripped it, post links too early and you get silently shadowbanned. The fix is a disciplined warm-up: Presence (days 1-14, no links), Engagement (days 15-30, bank 50-200 karma), then Seeding (month 2+, max one brand link a week) on a strict 9:1 value-to-promotion ratio. This planner maps your inputs to that protocol and flags when it is safe to attach a brand.
How to use it
- Enter your account age, karma and activity.
- Read your warm-up phase and link gate.
- Follow the safe self-promotion ratio.
Frequently asked questions
Why do Reddit accounts get shadowbanned?
Because they promote before earning standing, links too early, a thin history, a high self-promotion ratio. Reddit's filters and moderators penalise that, and a shadowbanned account's content never reaches the threads AI cites.
What is a safe self-promotion ratio on Reddit?
The common guidance is roughly nine genuine contributions for every one that links your own content. The planner sets the ratio and the link gate against your account's age and karma so you build standing before you post.
