* You can't use local community portal to promote exclusively your own private services in a way other can't do. This is what this means: If you are a company with your own services, description and prices of such services must be on a different portal, with a different name. Don't forget that a community portal serve project, not directly your business (even if it helps, it should just help), and this are two different things. So, you can have links from your commercial web site to reach the community portal, but links from community portal must never link '''exclusively''' toward your commercial web site/services.

** A link to a neutral page. For example, for a SaaS/Cloud hosting service, you can link to official wiki page [[Cloud_Solutions]] and ask to include your company or product page into this page. Another example, for a specialized module: You can make a link to the official wiki documentation of external modules http://wiki.dolibarr.org/index.php/Category:Complementary_modules and add your product.

** Or, if you really want to stay into the community portal (with no external links, for example because you promote something really specific for your local business, not interesting for rest of the world), you can have a dedicated area into the portal to present a short description of service/product with a link to the site of your company (so a different web site not affiliated with the foundation) with more complete information like long description and prices. If there is competitor for the service/product in same language than portal, then, into the dedicated area of community portal, you must offer competitors a way to request to add also their own link to their version of product page (but you can define that there is a sort criteria by age, so yours will be at top if you are the one that creates the community/portal). Never show any prices directly into any pages of the community portal.
