Can I post my startup on Hashnode?
You can share here directly, provided you follow the format. Posts are rarely removed when they lead with substance instead of a pitch.
Why the ban risk is low
- Built for sharing what you made — no promo-specific restrictions beyond the format.
The rules, in plain English
How to post here safely
- Publish a genuine technical article — a tutorial, walkthrough, or retro.
- Tag it correctly (#webdev, #node) and canonical-link your own blog.
- Don't make the article a thin wrapper around a product pitch.
Account requirements
- Set up your own Hashnode blog — you own the space; the feed is secondary.
- Mix launch notes with genuine technical posts; the Code of Conduct bans using the platform 'primarily for self-promotion'.
- No misleading link text — it's treated as SEO abuse.
