The rules say that you have to have submitted a good number of substantive posts to be able to provide a link to your own blog or site. Can one of the mods give me a ballpark estimate of what that would be? I live in fear of unintentionally overstepping. :wink:

Try using the PM button to send a Private Message containing your question to one or all of the mods. You'll get a quicker response, and only from a mod instead of someone who is bored and just happens to see that you have no replies yet to your public post and who otherwise couldn't care less.

So you've noticed that as well.

I would say that 50-100 posts is enough to ensure you are not just here to spam links.

Many thanks, Fnord. Will do.

I don't think anyone is going to be upset if you post a link that is genuinely related to a discussion.

I've got my blog in my footer but I often post links to specific articles in it when people ask similar questions over and over again - in new threads. It's easier than trying to find my original post in the original thread.
