Disclosure

My business revolves around my users, readers, and customers trusting me, so I want to be crystal-clear about my policy on monetization. I earn money in several ways via this site and my associated sites, including:

• Selling direct products
• Affiliate commissions
• Partnerships
• Text ads

Some of the affiliate programs include (but are not limited to) Amazon, Impact, and ShareaSale.

Some sites I recommend do compensate me, but in ways other than money. While this is not direct monetary compensation, I do disclose the relationship when I recommend them.

For affiliate and partnership links, I recommend products I have analyzed and/or used extensively. For text ads, I do not test and/or analyze their products.

On my blog, I do not accept paid posts. However, I occasionally do “thank you” posts for my vendor partners. On my email list, I will occasionally post sponsored content and clearly label it as such.

If I find that a product I have recommended is not satisfactory, I will post an update to my readers.
