No this is in the right section

flogging is apparently blogging pretending to be a customer of your own company, and praising yourself while not revealing you work for, or own the company. I doubt anyone here does it, but just in case :D

I suppose if you see a competitor doing it you would be able to report them ;)

To make it clear, blogs supporting your company are OK, as long as you disclose that you are, in fact, promoting yourself.

Testimonials will also fall under the new rules.

Glad to hear it - imo it is tantamount to fraud.
