Forum signature linking

mootonandy · 8 Feb 2011 at 23:11

Hello,

I just want to asking if I am allowed to link back to my blog using anchor text in my signature on this forum? It's nothing to do with computers or hardware.

Thanks a lot.

A blog is fine, as long as it is not advertising any sort of business etc.

EDIT: I misunderstood.

Thanks a lot for your replies. It's got ads on it, is that still ok?

I should imagine that is fine.

Welcome to the forums!

Do any moderators know if it's ok or not? Thanks.

Strife212 · 9 Feb 2011 at 09:17

It definitely is ok.

Can I have the permission of a moderator before I do it please?

It should be fine as long as it's not a business, or affilate type link.

What about all the photographers that link to their businesses?

Did you not see the massive thread about it the other week? Think the rules are a bit tighter now

They shouldn't be doing so, only linking to their work is fine. If you see one that's been missed then please RTM it.

Missed it. I think I caught the start of it where someone was giving off, but I didn't follow it.

It does have some ads on it so it is kind of a business. Do you know if it's still ok or not. Thanks a lot.

It's got ads on it so I still need a final answer from a moderator please.

PhillyDee · 9 Feb 2011 at 21:48

Best off emailing a moderator. Details can be found in the FAQ.
