Of course a lot of communities have strict rules against blatant self-promotion. Otherwise they would be overrun by spam and ruined.

But if you are there, as a professional/expert in a specific subject, and provide "value" and stay on topic, it's usually OK to drop a link once in a while (sometimes for needed context).

I simply try and follow the Reddit famous "10% self-promo" rule everywhere, not just on Reddit.
