Channel playbook for github.com / forums / stackoverflow.com: how Neural-LLM partners promote Power Claude with honest education, disclosure, and a tracked partner code URL — not spam.
Why github.com / forums / stackoverflow.com
These venues punish marketing. Your brand wins when you are the person who fixed someone’s problem.
How to win here
- GitHub Discussions / issues: answer technical questions; link product only when directly relevant.
- Stack Overflow / Stack Exchange: follow their self-promotion rules (usually rare, disclosed, and not the bulk of your answers).
- Classic forums (VBulletin, Discourse): use signature policies if allowed.
- Never scrape issues to cold-DM maintainers with affiliate links.
- UTM only when a link is appropriate: utm_source=github|forum&utm_medium=community.
Copy-paste starter
When a product mention is appropriate:
I'm a Neural-LLM partner. If you buy Power Claude through my link, I may earn a commission. Power Claude is independent software — not affiliated with Anthropic.
YOUR_LINK
Replace YOUR_LINK with your partner code URL from /partners/tools. Suggested UTM: utm_source=github&utm_medium=community&utm_campaign=discussion.
Pitfalls
- Answering only to drop links.
- Creating issues that are ads.
- Astroturf accounts.
Universal compliance
- Use only your portal partner code URL (`?r={your-code}`) — no third-party shorteners.
- Disclose commission every time (FTC / honest affiliate culture).
- Lead with **money savings** (~$117+/mo vs Max when they pool Pro seats they already own).
- Continuity / rate limits / multi-account = secondary proof, not the only headline.
- Never invent commission %; portal shows structure.
- Never claim “bypass Anthropic limits/ToS” or guaranteed income.
- Teach first — dump-and-run spam kills trust and accounts.
- Label demo/mock charts as demo data.
