I am wondering if it is okay to link to your own Cafe Press page from you hub? The one I am thinking of is totally related to the hub I want to add it to.
As long as there is no more than two links to this domain in a single hubs, and you are not linking to the same domain from every other hub - you are fine
And here are details - if you need them http://hubpages.com/hub/Overly-Promotional
Thanks Misha! I checked it out too...great help. It's been fun (doesn't mean I understand it all though <sigh>) I need more time wandering around.
Are there any plans in the works to add a CafePress capsule? (Or Zazzle, Etsy, etc.) I enjoy "decorating" my Squidoo lenses with pretty designs, even though I don't think I've ever made anything off it.

I just had a hub called as "Overly Promotional". It's not a great Hub, but I can't see how it can possibly fit that description. It's here:http://hubpages.com/hub/super14It is about the Super 14 Rugby Competition and provides many links to sites with info about the teams involved -- links...

The reason I'm wondering is because the advertisements are kind of obtrusive and ugly. I like that they mutable and you can design a product list for them, but I know I have never really even thought about buying something from an Amazon link, and rarely even click them. I was just...

So, I am in the process of writing my first Hub, which is going to be an extensive Resource Guide to a video game called Fire Emblem: Awakening.
