Gower Design Group Linking Policy

Gower Design Group encourages the use of hypertext linking to and from its website for two purposes: to enhance site visitor experience, via the Design Community, Links and Blog pages and to support organic search engine optimization in a way that is ethical and reflects core values of Gower Design Group.

Outbound links - Who we link to - Gower Design Group has two levels of outbound links:

Links featured on the Design Community and Blog page offer a collection of carefully selected links reflecting Gower Design Group's core values.  They are chosen to enhance the experience of visiting Gower Design Group. These hyperlinks point to destinations on the web where visitors can learn or explore topics related to home design and home building at their leisure, anonymously, and at no cost.
Wherever possible, we prefer reciprocal linking with links featured on our Design Community, Links and Blog pages.
Links featured in our Links page: this is a regionally-organized list of contractors, builders, suppliers, sub-trades, and craftspeople offered as a jumping off point for those embarking on building or renovating their home.

Caveats to Outbound links:

Inclusion of a link on the Gower Design Group website does not constitute an endorsement of that website, or of the business or organization it represents.
Gower Design Group is not responsible for the content, coding, programming, or marketing practices of any site it may link to, including the use by other sites of cookies and other data collection or e-commerce programs.
