what's with submitting an affiliate link without clearly labeling it, doesn't that break the internet code of honor?
Added in edit: I've just gone to look up and read about affiliate links, but to be completely honest, I really don't have time now to try to decrypt all the crap returned to me by the Google search, and all the pages high on the marketing Ginger Factor. Suffice to say I'm clueless about web marketing/tracking crap, and I really do not have the time now to learn about stuff that's so foreign to me.
Should I delete this and resubmit it? It's possible to edit the title, but not the URL, and I can't add any text to the title because of length restrictions.
What would you propose?
Added in further edit: I've submitted a version without the tracking code - I just hope people see that one so I get the comments I was looking for. Thanks for the responses.
People share their blog entries and companies and products here all the time to make money and that's fine but I figure that's because it's transparent whereas referral links (where the person intentionally used it) are trying to make money without admitting it. "I made this product..." vs. "This product looks amazing, what do you think?" the latter is misleading when (intentional) referral links are involved, because I don't assume by default the person presenting it is in it for the money.
Nonetheless , i was looking for an online accounting solution , so thank you sir.
