Promoting one's own business here.

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Promoting one's own business here.

Post by 4000islandsguy »

What are the rules in regards to people mentioning their own businesses here? Do I have to be a sponsor? If somebody asks in a thread advice on where to stay on Don Det am I allowed to suggest my own business and provide a link? I have no intention of littering the forum with too much about my place but it has always somewhat bothered me when sites bar people from suggesting their own place if it seems to match the topic. For example I got warned on Thorntree for mentioning my place when it was what the OP was basically looking for and a good match. In the mean time somebody not even in Laos could incessantly tout for his buddies place because he didn't own it.

Is it okay to use my link in my sig or perhaps a pic in my avatar? Just trying to figure out what is considered acceptable.

Thanks for asking ahead of time.

Go for it! It sounds like you have thy right idea about it all.

We definitely don't want anyone spamming the board, but i think you get that.

We also want our members to be well informed of anything out there of interest, so we're glad to have you mention your business were appropriate.

And definitely feel free to use whatever avatar and signature you wish!

Thanks again for asking first. Even I'm interested to see what you might share with us.

Say, can anyone recommend a good place to stay at Don Det? Does anyone here have a business there?
