So I've been reading the forums for a little while now and I have one question which I hope doesn't spark a huge debate. I have been looking at a few essay sites that have thousands of papers available to search through and download (for a fee of course) for example essaytown. Now all I am seeking is possible website's that offer a searchable database of papers. I would like to stay away from any kind of debate as to who is better than who because it doesn't seem to lead anywhere so that's why I'm just asking for any site's that offer a searchable download.

You already seem to know which sites offer it, so why are you asking?

Here's one: free-essays.co.uk/
Before this post gets removed, admin - check the site - this isn't advertising, it's not a custom essay site and doesn't sell anything :-)

Wow, what a shocker--Jennifer's "company" owns and controls free-essays.co.uk.
PROOF:
academicanswers.co.uk/about.htm
Jennifer, your credibility couldn't possibly be any lower. Well, actually, who knows? Keep posting and we'll see.

No advertising or self-promotion are allowed. Do you not understand English or do you simply have no regard for the rules of the forum? Try reading the terms of service?

It proves that you have no respect for rules, contracts, and agreements, as others have claimed.

Thanks for pointing out the rules of the forum WB. Your help is greatly appreciated as always.
It is my understanding of the word 'advertising' that this is some communication persuading customers to make a purchase.
Since the resource I sent the forum user to has no advertising on it and does not sell anything, I do not see how it could be advertising. Could you enlighten me?
Can you perhaps clarify:
Are we permitted to link to other websites, provided that these are not the kind of websites that sell services or products? Are free resources not allowed? The only reason anyone here knows that the site was created by someone in our company was because you said so. So it doesn't provide any form of advertising or promotion for our company (although your post does).

Advertising comes in many different forms, including posting links to a "free" site on which you plan to offer services and advertisements in the FUTURE. You're not fooling anyone.

Yes, because you were not HONEST enough to admit such.

We have no plans to offer anything on the free site at this time, to the very best of my knowledge - to be honest, I'm not sure where we're going with that particular site. But I have no problem admitting which sites we do and don't own - if we were hiding this, then why would we list them on our central website (for you to easily find)? We have a diverse range of sites so that we can target different market segments, but all of the business ones list us as owners, as far as I'm aware.
