JenSocial: Social Web Directory and Ning Tips

Social Web Directory :: Social Network Directory :: Ning Tips and Ning Support

Please DO NOT LIFT TIPS from this site, unless you use our Tip Logo/Link. Read details.

First, this is not delivered with any anger, drama, or animosity, whatsoever. :-) I think that most members who do this, do it 100% innocently. Please do not lift the tips from this site. We work very hard to provide great tips for our members and visitors. We actually focus on offering new tips, that we've not seen on any other Ning site. Not to say that all of our tips are original, but we sure try.
Please give your friends and members the link to our Tip Section, instead of copying/pasting to your website. It's just wrong. There are exceptions. Please read paragraph at bottom of this Discussion.

We do this to help out fellow Ning Network Creators, and to gain hits and traffic to the Ning Directory. The more hits/traffic, the better our rankings. The better our rankings and higher our Search Engine keyword positions go, the more your links/networks are noticed and promoted. This is all a Team Effort, totally. Let's face it. None of us could do this alone.

Based on my emails, I think most of our active members already see the difference that the Ning Directory Team (all of us) has made for their Ning Networks.

Thank you for understanding,
Jen

WHEN IS IT OKAY TO PASTE TIPS ON YOUR NING NETWORK?
1. If you have a Ning Network that does not target or cater to other Ning Networks.
2. If you need tips that will help your members.
3. When possible, please use our link and tip logo.

Note: If you don't mind your members knowing you are a Ning powered Network: all we ask, please give a link back to us, using our Tip Logo. If you are a premium Ning Network, and don't want members to know you are powered by Ning, no problem. Use the tips.

Please see attached text file for Tip Logo/Link code. Then, you won't have to type the code on your site.

Thanks!

l have seen a great different in my network and the tips l get here never go to everyone else, only because there are those out there taking credit for things and leaving their members think all these codes are from the creator. l seen this and was up set on this. The person should have at least give credit to the other creator of the code.

Thanks. This discussion was created when a certain young Network Creator was completely copying our tip section word-for-word, and making it his own, not good.
Thanks again!
;-)

l am sorry, but l did get the codes and pass to a few friends, but l did tell everyone where they came from. l did give the credit where credit goes.l thought the codes were ok to use on our network.

LOL, I didn't know you had placed tips on your site. No problems. But, I would like to keep them here when possible. Why? My reasons are in the original Discussion above.

Thanks for understanding, Fantasyland. You're always telling people about us. And, I really appreciate it! Thank you!

Have a wonderful day,
Jen

Hi Fantasyland,
I have added a "When is it okay?", due to your case. It made me realize there are cases when it's okay.
Thank you again for all your support!
Best,
Jen

Thanks Jen
Should I post the banner on my site even though I do not share the great tips with anyone? When any of my members have asked I have posted a link to your site where the discussion was posted.

I'm testing it out to see how it will work

Cheers Deborah

Looks good

Hi Jen! i'm a new member not knowing much on how things go here. I've already used some to the codes in my site and it has started changing. It is not for other network, just social one and just starting with less than 100 members. I will tell my members about this great site when more are coming and active.

i) Is it okay trying and using the tips codes to better my site with?
II) do i acknowledge codes owners that I am trying and using her/his codes?

thanks again!

Mayhaps this will clarify things....

If you are using the codes found on here or on other sites just to "tweak" your own personal page, or the main page of your site, then it is fine to use the codes with no credit given.

However, if you give the codes out to anyone else, or post them on your site for others to grab at will, then you should always post where the codes came from.
