  Hello

  I have a question… Is it permitted to place an affiliate link in your sidebar? I’ts simple html, a link like http://www.site.com/64664. The link doesn’t go to a money making website or whatsoever, but a clean website where you can search for hotels.

  Thanks in advance

  Grtz,
  Herman

  Your allowed to post urls that you like in your blog roll.

  Go to links, add new.

  As long as you or anyone else don’t profit in any way (besides web traffic) then your fine.

  When someone clicks on the link I will get credited in my account on that website. It’s a clean link though.

  There should be no doubt after reading this. Affiliate links are not allowed.

  It says: ” affiliate / referral links to the following domains: usercash, clickbank, clickhop, cashrocks, payingcash; clicktrackers (and any similar) and any promotion of the “I made a million on the internet and so can you” type of advertising (i.e. MLM, network marketing, cash gifting, etc.).”

  So an affiliate link to a gotel search website is allowed I think :)

  Not allowed, sorry.
