Is generally the way most forums work. I've had a look at your posts and most are about Hobart sales... Which might be OK - it looks like you're running a home-based Hobart repair and re-sell service... Which might be fine, but why should you get free advertising here? This server costs money to run and then there's Floyd's time too.
Two solutions: One - you create and pay for an advertising campaign with the usual people (google, etc.) and these adverts end up here, eventually in the normal way, or two - you pay Floyd directly for a banner ad. or 2. However, there is a third way - you start making bread and making bread posts here. Then maybe put in your profile a link to your hobart sales - also start answering peoples questions on Hobarts and mixers in-general. Post a DIY guide to the mixers, what to look for when buying one, how to refurbish it (trust me, this won't reduce your sales)
Thank you all for your comments. Floyd has resolved my problem, don't know what caused it. Yes I repair mixers and my mechanical engineering background does help me do that as well as the posts from users here. In turn I share my lessons learned and help others any way I can. I hope my posts have not created any sore spots here. If there is a monetary compensation imposed for posting ads in the future as you are suggesting I would abide by those rules.

I can confirm that Givemethedough has been a real helper for us folks refurbishing Hobart mixers. His presence on this forum is really precious!
