Links, Referrals and Mentions Policy

To be listed here, websites with a Bermuda connection must:

• Electronically text link to Bermuda Online (not to one of its many sub-sites) if you wish to have a reciprocal electronic link from us to your Bermuda-based or Bermuda-serving site. Mutual link exchange is a very simple and efficient method how to improve your websites traffic and search engines (especially those based on page rank system e.g. Google) positioning. If you are not prepared to link to Bermuda Online do not ask for a link. It is not a practical proposition to incur bandwidth in linking to or making any mention or referral to a site that won't link back on a reciprocal free basis or pay for it. Bermuda Online (BOL) has always been very pleased to reciprocate immediately all hyperlinks to all Bermuda websites and sub-websites (with their own URLs) that hyperlink to us, in a clearly-marked and easily accessible "Links" area (instead of a "hidden" area for links, one not visible to those accessing a site) - and to keep them up for as they as they do the same.
• We will also gladly reciprocate if in linking you wish to have a brief description of your website. If you do, let us know by email what your website's brief description is and e-mail it to Keith A. Forbes, Editor and Webmaster, at kaforbes@ibl.bm. In which case, use our description which is "a portal with 125+ unique websites on Bermuda, constantly updated."  
• All owners and website managers have complete discretion in whom they will link to and will not, on principle. Bermuda Online does, too, with a policy very similar to many other portal websites. 
• If you do not arrange links yourself, talk to your webmaster to arrange to link to us. Please put your link to us in your specific Links page, and we will do the same. Reciprocated links must be in clear public view, not hidden. Having a separate Links" page is the best way to ensure this.
• The few exceptions to this links policy are entirely at the discretion of the site manager of Bermuda Online and include the airlines serving Bermuda - or which promote Bermuda from abroad.
• Have an acceptable standard of taste and decency.
• When links to us from a any site are withdrawn without any prior notice, we reserve the equal right to do the same immediately. 
• Individuals, companies, entities, properties and places accommodating visitors should be aware that if they do not wish to create their own website or sub-site but wish to be mentioned by Bermuda Online, they should first of all contact The Advertising Dept of The Royal Gazette to arrange paid-for advertising, to ensure they will continue to be mentioned. With effect from 1st July 2007 this is the policy for all such individuals, companies, entities, properties and places accommodating visitors. The right is reserved to discontinue without notice any mention of any who do not observe this. 

There is a standard disclaimer when you link to a site. It is that you do not necessarily endorse its content or even agree with some or all of it. But you electronically link to it for the comprehensive information it provides in ways supplementing and complementing your site that your own site either does not provide or does not do so in the same detail as ours.

Types of electronic links

• Two types -"text" or "banner" links. Of the two, text links, plus a brief description, are the ones we will accept and reciprocate. Be aware that Banner Links are sometimes such a nuisance to some people that they switch them off, often for good reason. We do the same. Site owners and webmasters don't always realize or appreciate the implications of of this.
