Are we allowed to state in a forum that we are a PC consultant and put our website (entire address) in a forum discussion?

I just spotted a consultant name and website on the forum.

no you are not allowed to advertise on the web or attach your website info to it.
 
OOPS, does anyone know how to delete something from CraigsList?
 
You need to delete from the email you got to submit it. I've posted in the barter section offering to barter PC products. I never got any response. I thought I'd be within the guidelines, not really sure now. I didn't post my website.
 
, as a fellow Pampered Chef consultant, I understand your excitement about sharing your website with others. However, it is against forum guidelines to promote personal businesses or websites. This is to ensure a fair and equal platform for all forum members. I kindly suggest removing your website from your post and instead, connecting with potential customers through private messages or in-person interactions. Thank you for understanding and happy cooking!
