Why Can't Users Add Post Signature With Links?

[seobangkok]

I'm a member of a handfull of forums but Thaivisa is the only one that doesn't let user's add a post signature.

It would be great for people that have their own sites/blog related to Thailand that would benifit other users.

I'm guessing it's because Thaivisa is worried about a decrease in direct advertising if people were able to display links?

Would appreciate thoughts from thai visa admin

Cheers!

Hi,

We do not allow URL's in signatures as it amounts to promotion or advertising of a business or website. Only forum sponsors/advertisers are allowed to display a URL in the signature.

However... members are welcome to add a URL to their profile page in the appropriate section.

The users make this site/forum what it is... my feelings are that you should allow them to promote their business if they want to. Banner placements still take up more on-screen real estate so I doubt you'll loose business there.

But hey, this isn't my site so I guess I have no choice but to follow the rules (until another forum takes over thaivisa that allows links)

That's right: It isn't your site you just use an high quality Service Site for free! If you want to take part in financing this site, be a Sponsor and you can place your URL. For to do so, please contact sales[at]thaivisa.com and sing up the required contract, pay you Sponsor Fee and place your Link in your Signature.

Is as easy as that.

Cheers.
