No spamming meaning not to promote through spam. Whether it's spamming emails or spamming forums, blog comments, etc. You now, the irrelevant or one liner posts/emails/comments that is meant to just place a link in the site. Meaning, merchant prefers more of the affiliate to drive traffic through affiliate's own websites. Merchant may not want to be associated with a spammer and do not want to be viewed as condoning spamming activities as it may affect the reputation of the merchant.

Spamming is a way of having backlinks and leads to one's site through unethical ways. Example of this is by leaving links to one's blog comment area without giving a useful message to the blog itself.

Another form is by posting to forums to make their signatures seen and have backlinks but not contributing to the community.

there are a lot more spam exedededededs and definitions. The only thing to do right now is to have your marketing ventures clean and on the radar.

Everyone has a different meaning of what spam is and this ambiguity can cause many problems. Make sure you double check with the site administrators if you aren't sure to prevent getting banned from the program.

I'm new to the business too.
In my opinion, no spamming refers to no email marketing and link building via posting useless comments.
