And you then have a profile (with TER ID number), be sure to contact TER Admin and ask that your profile be linked to your handle.  That way a "See my TER Reviews" link will automatically appear under your handle every time you post.  That way you will not have to put your web site URL every time you post, as that will be in your profile.

However if it is your first review and the reviewer's first review, TER might hold it longer.

You are allowed to post your website link on all your board posts, unless it is a threadstarter. As inspectormorse said, once you do get your review posted, ask admin to link your profile to your username. This will put the "see my reviews" link under your username every time you post. It also gives you Limited Provider VIP. Since you are already paying for VIP, that is not super important, but if your paid subscription expires you will still be able to use PMs, and read your own reviews.

It is also good to correct your profile once it is created. It will be created by your first reviewer, but he may put incorrect info or a lot if "don't knows." You will be able to correct these via problem reports or "contact us."

Also take some time to read the "Self Help Center" if you gaven't already.
Good Luck:)

I have had reviews go up in a few hours, and others took the full 3 days, you never know.  But, if it's your first, and the client's first review, admin will likely hold it until you get another, or he writes another.  They are often skeptical about first reviews by first reviewers.

Once you get a posted review, you can ask to link it to your handle.  You can post pics in your regional board on the pic theme days as long as you have the pic on a site like imagecoast so it has it's own URL.  I'm not sure what the rule is about posting a pic in a general post, but I suspect it would be denied.

the fact that some reviews initially can get rejected and need to be resubmitted.

One little word (or number) in the wrong place and it doesn't post.

Be patient, it will happen.

Good luck!
