Crafts & Decorations

question on forum rules

15 years ago

I know there is no advertising allowed on this board. I have a friend who has a craft blog that she makes some money from, she posts some free craft instructions on her blog. Is she allowed to post links to her site & crafts here on this board? She wants to get people to come to her site for the freebies she has so her ad revenues go up.

I don't have the answer for you but would like to suggest you check on the home page of the GW site and see if they have a Q&A page or maybe you can contact the moderators and ask.

We post links to instructions and freebies for other stuff - I don't see what the difference would be. I'm interested, :)

Hmmm, seems like the Alabama forum is the ONLY one where strict enforcement of rules is enforced! Wonder why this arbitrary and very confusing situation has occured only here?

Oh my.... Well, I'm glad to know what impact Kristi, Donna and I have on others. (YOU GUYS + BLANCA MUST SHOW ME HOW TO USE THOSE DARN SMILEYS :) ) Anywho, a person just posted a thread saying they were upset because no one answered their question buried in another posting with a different topic. This is the reason I made this thread is for that very reason, people don't get the answers they seek and are upset. It's important that we can help the best way possible and there is NEVER just one answer, everyone's advice is just as important as the person above or below too. If anything, someone scrutinizing others for posting their advice or ideas is a problem, not advising people to get the most from their questions.

Catlover, in my case, it is just that I am too ignorant to figure out how to post a picture! I do occasionally, however, post a link to my website, where my DH has graciously placed photos for me. I don't know how to put them on my website, either. I'm itching to share some photos that he just took yesterday of an all white baby round ripple and matching white baby dress, bonnet, and booties. But I just have to be patient until he gets around to editing and uploading the photos for me. Go for it! We want to see those pictures.

JMHO - try here, if no/limited responses then try remodeling.

I would imagine that freebies would be allowed ..... but I can't speak for Garden Web. I think it's great that you asked first . I'd suggest trying to post a link to the freebie instructions... and wherever anyone goes from there - is their decision. Good luck :)

I think because she isn't promoting herself it's ok... I post links to many places for inspiration.... I can't control if the links have advertising...
