VENICEBEACH.COM Policies & General FAQ's

Here is a brief explanation of some of the questions you may have about venicebeach.com


Porn, hate & graphic content.

VENICEBEACH.COM is linked to and viewed by schools around the world and is a "family friendly" site. Some areas and links may contain adult explatives, but you'll notice that you don't see them in "common areas" such as the message board, personals and classified ads. You'll also note that adult terms are used as explatives and not solitications or suggestions.

FREE Web sites on venicebeach.com follow the same rules and guidelines regarding porn, hate and solitication. Any posting, ad, personal ad, Web site or link will be promptly deleted. Nuisance and abuse are handled at an ISP level. We don't parse words or play semantics.


Banner policy

VENICEBEACH.COM provides free banner exposures for public service and community events. Banners must be hosted on our server and point to your target URL.

Paid banner exposures are available. e-mail webmaster@venicebeach.com for our latest rates.

There is no text beneath banner ads and no "top" targets - everything stays in the frame or child window. The reason is quite simple, frame targets keep traffic flowing, not passing through on distractive tangents.

Remember, people come to venicebeach.com to see what's there, hang out or whatever, they didn't come to buy software or subscribe to something that has nothing to do with Venice Beach. Shopping is a big part of Venice Beach and one of the reasons that it's California's second largest tourist attraction after Disneyland. People don't expect to enter a shop on the beach exit on Hollywood Blvd. ;)
