You may include your website, company, product name, or service information on your profile but not inside the body of answers, the discussion area of answers, nor in questions. Otherwise, it can be seen as spam and could result in your account being suspended.
Web addresses (links) are not permitted in answers except in rare circumstances (such as medical emergency information or a long list of national helplines, where permission has been granted) when the use of related links is not feasible.
Each question has a section for linking to other websites for more information. This is called "Related Links." Related Links can be commercial, if they are relevant. For example, if the question is "Where can you find a pool cleaning company in Tucson Arizona?" it would be perfectly appropriate to link to your pool cleaning business in Tucson Arizona.
However, the link must help to answer the question directly; it should be answering what the questioner has asked.
Links must be as relevant to the answer as possible. For example, don't link to a blog's homepage but instead provide a link to a specific blog article featuring information that helps answer the question.
Answers cannot consist solely of a referral to a related link unless the question is asking for an item that is unsupported on WikiAnswers such as an image or video.
Please note that affiliate links are not permitted on WikiAnswers. This means that affiliate links are not permitted under "Related Links" either. However, you are welcome to add those links to your own profile if you wish to do so.
If you have a business to promote, the best way to do it is on your profile. These pages get a lot of attention and you're welcome to advertise yourself in this space. The more qualityanswers you give, the more links back to your profile there will be and the more benefit to your website, business or product. However, please do not advertise your profile, or refer people to your profile, in answers.
* If you know of one of the most prominent websites on the internet which should be exempt from this limitation feel free to e-mail WikiAnswers @ Answers.com and it will be considered for our whitelist.
