I just started a blog about the things I find at work (a lot of odd stuff) and was wondering if a link in my signature would be considered and advertisement and violate the terms of use?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Ricky Bobby, welcome to PC!

Generally, the reason for restricting links is to keep people from joining PC to advertise products or services. If your blog isn't for that purpose then a link to it in your signature is probably OK. DocJohn spells that out in more detail in the Community Guidelines (which you may already have looked at). For instance:
  • Links in your signature are okay, as long as they are to your personal site, a charity, a helpful resource or article you'd like others to know about, a project or non-profit effort. Generally, no self-promotional links are allowed in one's signature; exceptions, however, may be made on a case by case basis.
As I understand it you're just sharing about interesting stuff you've seen, not trying to sell it to us, right?

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
