Earlier today, you bumped a question from 2008 to add a post with a link to an article on your own site... that post has been removed in accordance with the site policies. (This is consistent with a comment you received on your old userID, as well.)
You can review the policies here:
- Policies_and_guidelines - Advertising in articles and discussions (second paragraph specifically)
- no vanity pages or advertising (the part that starts out "But please don't create...")
In case I haven't yet thanked you for switching to this shorter name, I'll do that now: Thanks, it's truly appreciated.
Thanks,

Short answer
A full response will have to wait until later*, but the short answer is that linking to your blog is wrong, unless an unrelated/neutral 3rd party would have selected that link as the best response. Given that you answered a 2008 question, that's a very high bar to pass. Even on current questions, it 'd be tough, unless by the very nature of your posts here - over the course of many months/years - you'd established yourself as the site "expert" on an area, so much so that others were already linking to your blog anyway.
More later.

Sorry STG...the first line of my post was for you the rest of it was for the OP. I neglected to preface that part to separate the two statements.Laura taxea
You may have heard by now that the Tax Almanac ( www.taxalmanac.org ) web site forum is permanently closing its doors effective June 1. Perhaps you have seen the pink bombshell “Important Service Announcement” when logging in.
Long-time TA user ChrisV2 has volunteered to set up a new website where TA users may continue the discussion. The site is up and running now and has an active base of contributors.
We invite you to take a look www.taxprotalk.com and join your fellow TA refugees.
