As you can see the affiliation keeps the costs of the runing the blog at Zero – we might break a profit some months but I will spend it on new toys for the blog

I can assure you this blog is not here to make a profit or to spam and I am sorry if you feel that way. I will change the way the ougoing links (to affiliates) are handled so it is more obvious.

Wiki says spam in blogs is a form of spamdexing. It is done by automatically posting random comments. I’m sorry you consider my posts random but I can assure you they are not done automatically.

I am promoting commercial services on this blogs but IMO for that to be considered spam I’d also have to own the websites that are being promoted. I don’t.

Yes, there are nominal affiliate commissions that are paid if people click on a link here and buy a product but why shouldn’t that be the case? I am still completely unbiased in everything that I write. I am not influenced whatsoever by the tiny amounts that are paid and that side is looked after by the Blog Management, LEE, AKA Storm. I just simply write. I don’t even know what we get. And the funds won’t come to me anyway. I haven’t received a penny and I’ll decide what I’ll ask Lee to do with it at a later date.

Finally, can you spam your own site? I think not.

Sir, you’re welcome to your own opinion but I doubt very much if many others share it. I could be wrong though. I very often am. Let’s see if anyone else has an opinion. Good luck to you, as always , and have a great day.
