hi my domain has a reddit sitewide ban, is there any good way to get around this, like using another domain to redirect to our website?
 
Reddit takes domain bans seriously, and attempts to bypass the ban with a simple redirect could violate their policies and lead to further consequences, including banning accounts associated with promoting the site.

However, there are some alternative strategies you could consider:

You could set up a new domain specifically for Reddit purposes and use it as a landing page that links to your main website. This domain shouldn't be a straightforward redirect, but rather a mini-site or blog page with valuable content, so it doesn't appear spammy.

Reddit doesn't block all link shorteners or cloaking services, so you could try using a service like Bitly or TinyURL to mask your banned domain. However, Reddit tends to crack down on link shorteners over time if they detect misuse, and this is a temporary solution at best.

Instead of trying to promote your domain directly, consider sharing valuable content on third-party platforms that Reddit allows, such as YouTube, Medium, or LinkedIn. Create content that adds value to Reddit users, and within those articles or videos, you can link back to your banned domain in a subtle, contextual manner. Reddit users tend to trust outside platforms like YouTube or Medium more than direct promotional links.

I hope the above helps.
 
You can might be able to set up automod to approve those links on your subreddits, but you'll have to get the admins to lift it from the website.
