What are affiliate links?
Purchases are made on external affiliate company websites. When a reader clicks on an affiliate link located on .com to purchase an item, the reader buys the item from the seller directly. Amazon and/or the other companies pay radleywest.com a small commission or other compensation for promoting their website or products/services through their affiliate program.
If you purchase items through my links, I may earn a small commission (at no cost to you) that helps support this website.
Prices are exactly the same for you if you purchase through an affiliate link or a non-affiliate link. You will not pay more by clicking through the link.
Amazon Affiliate Links
Radleywest.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, but not limited to, amazon.com. Amazon offers a small commission on products sold through its affiliate links.
If a blogger links to an Amazon product, with a special code embedded in the link, and a reader places an item in their “shopping cart” through that link within 24 hours of clicking the link, the blogger gets a small percentage of the sale. Amazon links are not “pay per click”. If you click on the product link and stay around Amazon and purchase something else, however, I will get a commission on that sale.
Anytime you see a link that looks like astore.com…or amazon.com, it can be assumed that it is an Amazon affiliate link.
Product Affiliate Links
These affiliate links work the same way. If you click on the link and buy the product, then the blogger gets a percentage of the sale or some other type of compensation. Things like e-book, bundles, e-courses, and online packages are usually affiliate links. Again the prices are not different than you would pay otherwise, but simply help to support this website. These lines are not “pay per click” unless otherwise directed.
What about sponsored content?
I do not write sponsored posts. Everything I present to you is based on my personal experience, preference and recommendations. I want to bring you an unbiased, information based source. However, if a post is sponsored by a company or is a paid sponsorship, I will disclose this clearly at the beginning of the post.
My reviews and recommendations are based on my own personal experience and research. I will never recommend poor quality products or create false reviews to make commissions. It is my intention to explain products so you can make an informed decision on which one suits your needs best.
