RE: Weku - New steemit-like blogging site
Remove the referral links. Referral links must be properly disclosed and, also, Steemhunt is a place to focus on the product. Not to milk the willingness of a community eager to discover new. Milk by placing a not disclosed referral link (PS: the Steemhunt design is not made for referral links).
It’s both not ethical and disrespectful behavior towards the Steemhunt community when referral links are used as product link.
I've fixed it, didn't know about this rule
It’s not a rule as such.
It’s ethical behavior and respect.
It’s not seeing a community as an opportunity to enrich yourself without disclosing behavior. It’s not a rule, it comes from within yourself.
Legally, in the USA, affiliate and referral links must also be disclosed as per FTC. If it becomes widespread practice then, of course, it can be made a rule.
