As with all stern warnings, this one is only for the bad guys ; )
Stealing Content
Please note that using one or two sentences of my work with a link back to Hosting Website is not only a good thing, but appreciated. Stealing entire articles, on the other hand, is unacceptable.
All of the work on Hosting Website is original–and expensive. Because I actually sign up for hosting accounts all over the web–shared, VPS, dedicated, cloud and even reseller–in order to provide my customers the most accurate reviews available, running this site requires no small amount of money. For that reason, I have a zero tolerance policy toward theft of my hard work, and I frequently scan the Internet for thieves. If you use an automated software program that goes out and grabs content, and you end up with one of my articles on your site, be prepared for a battle that will end in one of the following ways: you will remove the content; or, if you use a reputable hosting company, your entire site will be removed; or, if you don’t use a reputable hosting company, you will end up in court. I simply must protect my intellectual property.
DoFollow Policy
This site has a NoFollow policy for comments, but a DoFollow policy for trackbacks. That means that if you leave comments on the site with links, either in your name or in the comment section itself, that if won’t benefit your search standing at all. However, we have a DoFollow policy for trackbacks. That means that if you run your own blog, and you do an entry that links to us, your pingback will show up on our site and will be followed by search engine bots. After all, we like getting links, so making that little reward was the least we could do.
So, if you are looking for ways to build traffic to your site using this site, don’t steal the material or try to sneak spam by me; just write your own stuff and link here.
NOTICE:
Around mid-day on July 23, 2009, I was carelessly playing around with my database and thought I was deleting spam when I actually deleted your trackbacks. My apologies.
