What is SPAM?
Simply put, SPAM is
unsolicited advertising. It is our belief
that SPAM is in the eye of the person being
SPAMMED, not the person sending the SPAM.
While you may not consider a message to be
Spam, if the person receiving it does, it's
SPAM. If you are not 100% certain that the
person or persons you are advertising your
Surfside Internet site to will not complain,
DO NOT advertise your site to that person or
persons. Any SPAM complaint is cause for
immediate termination, no second chances, no
questions asked. This is a very serious
matter. Surfside Internet reserves the right
to take legal action
against any person or persons involved in SPAMMING.

What types of advertising
are considered SPAM?
- Bulk e-mailing (sending
an e-mail advertisement to persons
listed on an e-mail address lead list).
- Advertising with bulk
e-mail services (companies who will send
an e-mail advertisement to persons
listed on an e-mail address lead list
for you).
- "Bounce back" e-mailing
(sending an e-mail advertisement in
reply to an e-mail advertisement that
was sent to you).
- Advertising your
Surfside Internet site to people that
you don't know, who didn't specifically
request the information.
- Cross-posting or
advertising to Usenet newsgroups, forum
or discussion lists, and online chats (IRC)
is not allowed.
- These are only
examples. Remember, SPAMMING includes
ANY unsolicited advertising.

Can you give me examples of
"legal" ways to advertise?
- Register your site with
major search engines, and add it to free
link lists.
- Use banner advertising
on free banner ad sites, paid banner
advertising, or banner exchange sites.
- Classified ads are a
great way to advertise! The classified
ad sites get heavy traffic, and there
are thousands of FREE classified ad
sites on the Internet.
