Communities punish link dumping.

Recommended approach: Answer questions fully, disclose affiliation and follow group promotion rules; link only when genuinely necessary.

How to validate: Measure helpful discussions and voluntary referrals, not posting volume. Avoid claiming causation, rankings or outcomes that the evidence cannot support.
