Requesting Guidance on Adding an External Backlink in Bitbucket Repository Documentation

[Sabrina Liu]

Hi Community,

I’m looking for guidance on the appropriate way to add an external backlink within a Bitbucket repository’s documentation. Specifically, we’d like to add a link to our company’s website (Homery.com) within our repo’s README or project documentation for reference purposes.

Before proceeding, I want to make sure this is fully compliant with Atlassian and Bitbucket guidelines, since the repository is used collaboratively and is publicly visible.

My questions are:

Are there any restrictions on adding external backlinks (such as linking to a company website) in a Bitbucket Cloud repository's documentation?

Is there a preferred or recommended format for adding external references in a README?

Are there any policies related to promotional links that we should be aware of?

Thanks in advance for any clarification you can provide.
