Question on the QB policies on blog posting
I have a question regarding the QB blog postings--I have posted a new blog entry recently that included my website url (just got it up and running) and both times I've posted it on the blog it has disappeared later. I thought the first time I'd somehow messed up the posting and it didn't save, but know it posted ok last night and today it's gone again. So wondering if the QB blog policies won't allow us to put up our own website info?
and along those lines, is there a place where we can post up our own website info on our profile? Thanks!
