Re: SEO's

From my perspective, my question is there an SEO that is not a spammer? How do you know they are an SEO. If I see SEO in the username or the e-mail address, they automatically get zapped.

Re: SEO's

Thanks for the advice. the member has a link in his/her profile to a SEO website and I dont have the ability to fully check out the member information.

Re: SEO's

Some try to use the profile to get linked onto search engines.
If the IP/login isn't registered here try to Google the login.
That normally gives a lot away...for instance is he recently registered onto a large amount of forums around the same date and has any posts been made on other forums that are spam.

Can you ban or have contact with someone who can.
Can you add logins to Coppa..moderated logins that can post but be seen only by those with the permissions,not on the public forum.
If not these are tools you should ask for.

Re: SEO's

My view on the topic of SEO is well documented:

There are very legitimate ways that you can help to promote interest in your Web site.  You don't have to be an administrator to be an effective spokesperson.

And congratulations on your promotion.  It's a great honor to be granted such responsibility.
