Is mentioning a product or website in each post should be considered spam?

Question

If an answer or a question from a specific user continuously mentions a specific website or a product (line) as well as functions as a question or an answer, should we consider these series of posts as spam?

The problematic part of this issue is, such posts offer what they claim. They include a part that function as an answer or a question. However, on the other hand, they include and piggybacked product mentioning part, which may be considered spam.

If these posts are considered spam, there may be several solutions:

• Each post is separately refined by editing. A lengthy process. Hopefully the author will stop.
• Comments can be leaved.
• One of the posts may be flagged as spam.
• All of the posts may be flagged as spam.

Yes, there are guidelines for self-promotion. Generally it's ok, as long as you disclose any affiliation, and don't post exclusively promotional content. If someone is going beyond what you feel is acceptable, please do flag their posts for moderator attention!
