I don't spam, I create my own threads. There is even a Nairaland thread for selling your fashion products and you should use that.
I also use another strategy of rushing threads that have been taken to the home page. I make sure I'm among the first ten contributors and I include my product in my comment.

Your signature should also bear your product.
