Hey there!

While we appreciate you sharing posts here, please see DEV's Content Policy available in our Terms and be careful not to share content that is too promotional. The terms state:

Users must make a good-faith effort to share content that is on-topic, of high-quality, and is not designed primarily for the purposes of promotion or creating backlinks.

Going forward, be careful to avoid sharing articles that are too promotional in nature. While it's generally okay to promote your product, business, personal brand, etc., just make sure that the posts you share have value beyond promotion.

If promotion is your primary goal, then consider signing up for Pro Tools which gives you access to:

  • Billboards for advertising,
  • Analytics to see advanced stats on your posts
  • And more!

Hope you understand our reason for limiting promotional content and that you continue to enjoy DEV!

Hi there, we encourage authors to share their entire posts here on DEV, rather than mostly pointing to an external link.

Sharing your full posts helps ensure that readers don’t have to jump around to too many different pages, and it helps focus the conversation right here in the comments section on DEV.

To be clear, the DEV Terms state:

Posts must contain substantial content β€” they may not merely reference an external link that contains the full post.

Also, if you share your full post, you have the option to add a canonical URL directly to your post. This helps with SEO if you are reposting articles!
