You areNOTcharged if your comment is instantly removed by the subreddit’s automod (status: “Automod Removed”).
Why? Automod removals usually happen right after posting, often because of a banned word or a link in your comment. Since your comment never actually appears live on Reddit, we don’t charge for these.
What to do:
Re-submit your comment to remove any links or potentially restricted words.
Try reposting with a different phrasing or without the problematic content.
Always double-check the subreddit’s rules but there's no way to know for sure what triggered it.
Your comment may get flagged and removed by Reddit’s automated spam system, sometimes hours or even days after posting.
Common reasons:
Too many upvotes too quickly, especially on older threads. (Most common reason)
Posting the same domain repeatedly (e.g., more than 5 times in 24 hours). Reddit's spam filters triggers this and starts removing comments.
If the same domain is used too excessively in a short period of time, it can also result in your domain getting banned across Reddit.
Using spammy or AI-generated content.
Best practices:
Read this post on how to safely use upvotes in a drip-feed manner.
All comments should be hand-written and provide some value while subtly promoting your brand.
Space out your comments in 24 hours (schedule the comments) and don't do more than 5 comments with the same domain. Use a mix of just brand mentions and domain link in your comments.
