    I want to ask for guest bloggers. I want to exchange an outbound link for their content. Does this request go under "Content" or "Freebies?"

    Please help. I don't want anymore infractions over something so trivial.

    Don't you think it should go in the content section as a WTT?
    Otherwise all trade threads, JV threads should be in freebies too.

    What about something like an ebook download in exchange for filling our a survey or completing an offer? Had a couple of these recently and wanted to know. Considering the download site was blocked from here as a sex/porn site (Gotta love my library) I'm not sure if any money was involved. I reported the ones in question but never heard back.

    It would belong in freebies so long as it does not involve an affiliate link promotion. Affiliate links/affiliate link promotions are not allowed.

    Anything outside of adult linking to porn is not allowed.

    Some of us think all trade threads should be in freebies!
    Trades are an easy way of artificially inflating iTrader.

    I don't think shawn meant it to be so, else he would not have included the trade option in the itrader.

    Probably in the beginning he did.
    But things evolve and just like $5 cheap and nasties are now unworthy of iTrader I think trades should be too. The freebies forum is a relatively new addition - the previous trick for a lot of members was to sell $0.50 links and harvest the mass of iTraders that followed.

    Biztone, Don answered your question. Yours belongs in freebies.
