Why do my posts sometimes get removed even when I am not spamming?

Hi,
I am new to reddit and trying to use it for traffic but I keep facing this issue. Sometimes I post normally without adding any links or doing anything spammy, but my posts still get removed or don't show up at all.
What should I focus on to avoid this problem? Any help would be appreciated.
 
Yeah, this happens a lot when you are new on Reddit. Even if your post is totally normal, it can still get removed or not show up just because the account does not much history yet or the subreddit's filters are strict. It normally improve once you spend some time using Reddit regularly and you account builds a bit of history. After that, posts usually start appearing without issues.
 
Could be the different criteria set by mods in that subreddit. some have rules that accounts that are new cannot post/ karma limits/Join the subreddit to post etc. So even if you don't post a link, the post gets removed automatically.
 
This usually happens on Reddit when your account is still new or does not have much karma, even if your posts are not spammy.From what I have seen, many subreddits also have strict filters, so posts can get auto removed if you don’t meet their requirements. Try engaging more first, commenting, upvoting, and building karma before posting a lot. Also always check each subreddit’s rules because they can be very different.
 
This is actually quiet normal on Reddit. The platform is quiet strict with new accounts, so even a simple, non-promotional posts can get filtered or removed without any obvious reason. It usually sorts itself out once you are been active for a while and build some basic trust on the platform
 
I’d focus on comments first because posts put a spotlight on you before Reddit knows who you are.
