Suggest a link

If you want us to link to your website then it should be a site that brings value to gofromhere.com in some way. We will consider all requests but we're pretty choosy about what links we offer our users, so don't be too disappointed if we decide not to include your site, it's nothing personal.
Contact us by email giving us the following information.

     •  The full address (URL) of your website.
     •  A brief synopsis of what your site offers.
     •  A damn good reason why we should link to you.

     Do not email us and request a link if you site is...

     •   Not able to offer a useful service to users.
     •   Not suitable for most audiences. (Do the Grandma test.*)
     •   Supporting any kind of pop-ups or aggressive/annoying ads.
     •   Featuring background music.
     •   Ugly or otherwise crap.

Please understand that requesting a link does not automatically mean you will be granted one. Your site will be visited but we may choose not to link to it and because it might be awkward to tell you this, we might not email you back (sorry about that).

* The Grandma test is a simple test to see if your website is suitable for most audiences. First find your Grandma, or someone else Grandma. Then place her in front of your website. If she gasps in horror, turns white, or keels over in shock, then you can safely assume your site is not suitable for most audiences and therefore not suitable our site either.
