Savannah, check out the link below - you should find the information on posting provider ads and the TER review process helpful.  It also supplies guidelines on what is necessary to include a link in your posts to your web site.

The TER forums are discussion boards, and not an advertising medium.  However, providers are allowed to post one ad message per week on specific forums, provided it meets certain criteria.  Please see the links below for details.
