As the Mom Bloggers Club continues to grow, it is important to
us to maintain the integrity of the club by posting rules and
guidelines for membership. Those found in violation of these rules
and guidelines are subject to being banned from the club. These
rules are subject to change and modification.
DO NOT spam members! That means, do not email your entire
friends' list or leave unwanted comments on several members'
profile pages to stop by your blog, buy into your business, follow
your blog, fan you on Facebook, follow you on Twitter or any other
unwanted requests. You can network with moms in the forums and on
an individual level when you have become friends through the Mom
Bloggers Club. If you don't quite understand want spam is,
according to Microsoft, spam is "any kind of unwanted online
communication." Again, spam is posting the same message repeatedly
across the network. Spam is writing the same post or comment over
and over again.* Spammers will be banned!
DO NOT post messages that attack another member. If we see it
or are alerted about an attack, you will be banned. No questions
asked.
DO NOT post copyrighted material.
DO NOT use excessive profanity on our network. It will be
deleted.
DO NOT post fake or incomplete profiles. Fake memberships with
incomplete profile pages will be immediately banned.
DO NOT poach members of the Mom Bloggers Club to become members
of other social networks or forums. You cannot use the Mom Bloggers
Club to recruit MBC members or link to your competing social
network or forum.
Do NOT advertise, solicit, or market to members. The Mom
Bloggers Club is NOT an open portal to advertise your company or
business site, service and/or product either directly or
indirectly. The Mom Bloggers Club is an active social network for
moms who blog to network with one another and promote their
personal blog. We make every effort to keep this club free of spam,
solicitations, and marketing from companies (both large and small)
who wish to tap into this demographic of moms. If you would like to
advertise to our membership we will be more than happy to send you
a media kit. Email us at mombloggersclub (at) themomsalon (dot) com
for more information about advertising, sponsorship, and
promotions.
If we notice solicitations and marketing from companies (both
large and small) and/or other members in our network, the posts
will be deleted and membership will be terminated.
For moms: we have created a specific forum called
Mom to Mom Business where you can advertise and market your
business as much as you'd like. All business-related conversations
are to remain in this forum only!
We reserve the right to ban or suspend members who we believe
are in violation of the aforementioned rules. If you notice rule
breakers, please report them to us. If you have any
questions, feel free to email us at MBCmemberservices (at) gmail
(dot) com.
