I know Reddit users do not like direct promotion. What is the best way to build trust before mentioning your website or service? Any beginner tips would be really helpful.

First phase is to warming the accounts with targeted subreddits adding value to community then start indirect suggestive and informative marketing and then direct marketing.
 
It really depends on what you're promoting. You can buy comments to promote your services and this is not direct promotion. Your accounts have to be good accs
 
Have your profile open for everyone


Pin your offer on your profile page, and be active in niche specific subreddits.
 
Focus on building karma first by leaving helpful comments and joining discussions. Once people trust you and your account is aged, you can add your website to your bio and pin a post on your profile.
 
I feel reddit users appreciate honesty more than anything.If you are there to contribute instead of promote, people seem much more open to what you share later.
 
Just use every account like a personal one.

Engage with more subreddits

Avoid posting Images and videos (I made this mistake)
 
Focus on being helpful first. People respond much better to helpful, genuine contributions than self- promotion. If you build credibility first, occasional relevant mentions are far more likely to be accepted.
 
Focus on adding value first answer niche questions comment consistently and build karma. Avoid early self promotion only share your site when it naturally helps the discussion. Be transparent when relevant.

You should add genuine value to your potential clients. After that if they ask you what you do, you can pitch your product or service.
 
Focus on becoming a contributor first not a promoter spend some time answering questions, joining discussions and providing value without mentioning your website. once people recognise you as someone who genuinely helps mentioning a relevent resources its feels naturally instead of spammy and remember different community different rules
 
What I believe, through my experiences, is that the biggest mistake people make on Reddit is using it like an advertising platform. This is the main reason accounts get banned. What has worked for me is focusing on being useful

Just act like a normal user. Do not try to act supersmart. Your promotion should look like a genuine suggestion.
 
karma doesnt unlock promotion, thats the mistake beginners make. you can have 10k karma and still get the link removed instantly in a sub that filters them. watch what the mods actually remove in a sub before you post there, and keep the sub you comment most in clean, dont drop links there
 
The best approach is to be genuinely helpful first and follow each subreddit's rules. I think if people find your posts useful, mentioning your website later feels much more natural.
