Is it "correct" to promote a commercial website when using a Newsgroup ?

Have a look at the charter for this group:
http://www.usenet.org.uk/uk.rec.gard....rec.gardening

"Advertising is not welcome, with the following exceptions:
" Suppliers of UK-relevant gardening equipment, services or
" plant material may post a pointer to their website or
" invitation to request a catalogue. This may not exceed
" four lines. This may be posted no more often than once
" every three months.
" The subject line should begin "AD" or "ADVERT".
"Participants in discussions may include references to
"their garden-related business in their .sig (max. four lines).

The usenet.org.uk site has some useful stuff about nettiquette.

There is a uk.adverts group specifically for promotions.
