HHAD linking policy

[Lev]

Since we have recently had a number of members in a state of confusion over what we allow in terms of links I have compiled this short guide to clarify things. Most of this is already outlined in out T&C however there are still a couple of grey areas.

1) Competing Websites : For obvious reasons we will not allow links to Hua Hin websites or forums that compete with HHAD or offer similar services. There are a number of them out there and many have plagiarized our content at some time or other.

2) Real Estate : We do not link to any property websites as we do not wish to be seen as supporting or advocating real estate services regardless of the fact that we have sold advertising and marketing packages to a number of property companies. We are an information portal, not real estate agents.

3) Thai Visa : We do not permit any links to this website as a number of our moderators have been banned from their forums. Additionally they have initiated a non cooperation policy with HHAD, we do not wish to compete with them however they do seem to want the monopoly on all aspects of Thailand information, including Hua Hin.

4) Hotel Booking : Since we have our own system of online booking here we do not allow linking to websites that offer identical services. We also do not permit links to sites offering the same services as we do such as taxis, car hire or property rentals - it can all be found here.

5) All other links are tolerated providing they do not fall into any of the above categories. Links are permitted at the discretion of the administrator or the moderators, whenever possible we will PM the poster with an explanation if a link needs removing. We do not expect any complaints over our linking policy however are willing to listen to our members if they feel a bad judgment has been made.
