[vBSEO]

Hello Everyone,

The vBSEO Team has been discussing this topic. As a result, I thought it was only fair that I give you some insight as to our position on this matter, as opposed to forcing you to continue theorizing about the motivations behind our "Acceptable Usage Policy".

First of all, although we always strive to be fully aware of your concerns, we must firmly adhere to the company policies that we have in place. This means that, on occasion, we have disallowed the purchase of vBSEO from various forums including those related to the promotion of illegal drugs or pornography.

I do not intend to make any judgements regarding those of you who administer such forums. However, as a company, Crawlability believes in certain principles which are reflected in our vision, mission, and terms of use for all of our current and future product/service offerings.

Our software helps your forums gain more Web Traffic and more exposure. As a result, allowing vBSEO to be purchased for use with the types of forums restricted in our EULA, would essentially put Crawlability in the position of promoting content that we do not feel is a good fit with our understanding of positive social values.

Of course, I also have some concern related to issues such as (1) association of our company or products with such forums, and/or (2) general legal issues that could arise by deploying our software on certain forums.

Our License Agreement will be revised to provide a clearer definition of sites that wouldn't meet our "Acceptable Usage Policy". We are also going to modify the checkout process so that review of the EULA is emphasized prior to purchase.

Juan
