Affiliate Disclosure

Affiliate Disclosure

In 2015, the Federal Trade Commission released new rules for Disclosure Compliance. These rules are set in place to ensure that readers or viewers of web media know if the blogger or presenter is sponsored, endorsed, or partnered with a different company. In blog terms, readers need to know if the blogger is making money by sharing a link or product.

In compliance with the FTC guidelines, please assume the following about links and posts on this site: any and all links on wormburnerweekly.com may be affiliate links of which I receive a small compensation from sales of certain items.

What are affiliate links?

When a reader clicks on an affiliate link on wormburnerweekly.com to purchase an item, the reader buys the item from the seller directly — not from wormburnerweekly.com. Amazon and other companies pay wormburnerweekly.com a small commission or other compensation for promoting their products through their affiliate program.

Prices are exactly the same for you whether your purchase is through an affiliate link or a non-affiliate link. You will not pay more by clicking through to the link.

1. Amazon Affiliate Links

Wormburnerweekly.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon properties including amazon.com. Amazon offers a small commission on products sold through their affiliate links.

If I link to an Amazon product and a reader places an item in their cart within 24 hours of clicking the link, I get a small percentage of the sale. Amazon links are not pay per click. If you click a product link and purchase something else on Amazon, I will still receive a commission on that sale.

2. Product Affiliate Links

These affiliate links work the same way — if you click the link and buy the product, I get a percentage of the sale or some other type of compensation. Prices are not different if you use these affiliate links. You will not pay more by clicking through to the link.

Sponsored Content

I do not write sponsored posts in the traditional sense. Wormburnerweekly.com is committed to giving you real, honest, and occasionally sarcastic information. However, if a post or newsletter issue is ever sponsored by a company and involves paid compensation, I will disclose this clearly at the beginning of that content.
