Hello there! At labsorbit.com, I believe in being completely open and honest with you, my readers. That’s why I’m sharing this Affiliate Disclosure page. You might have heard about the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines – they’re basically rules to make sure you always know if a website or blog is getting paid for recommending a product or service. My goal is to make sure you’re always aware when I might earn a small commission from something I suggest on this site.
So, for the sake of clarity, please know that many of the links you’ll find on labsorbit.com are affiliate links. This means if you click on one and make a purchase, I may receive a small payment for recommending it, at absolutely no extra cost to you.
What Exactly Are Affiliate Links?
You might be wondering, “What exactly is an affiliate link?” It’s pretty simple! When you click on a special link on labsorbit.com that leads to another website (like Amazon or a specific product’s store) and you decide to buy something, you’re buying it directly from that other company – not from me. In return for sending you their way, that company pays labsorbit.com a small commission or a ‘finder’s fee.’
The really important part to remember is this: Clicking an affiliate link does NOT change the price you pay. Whether you use my link or go directly to the store, the price for you stays exactly the same. It’s simply a way for me to earn a little something for the content and research I provide.
How labsorbit.com Uses Affiliate Links
I use two main types of affiliate programs on this website:
-
Amazon Affiliate Links: labsorbit.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. This is an affiliate advertising program designed to let website owners earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and other websites associated with the Amazon program. So, if you see an Amazon link on my site and buy something, I’ll get a small commission from Amazon.
-
Other Product Affiliate Links: Besides Amazon, I might also link to other helpful products or services that I believe are valuable. If you click on one of these links and make a purchase, I’ll receive a percentage of that sale or some other form of compensation. Just like with Amazon links, using these links doesn’t cost you anything extra. These aren’t “pay per click” links where I get paid just for you clicking; I only get a commission if you actually make a purchase.
What About Sponsored Content?
You might also wonder about sponsored content. As a rule, I don’t write “sponsored posts” where a company pays me to write a specific review or article. My priority is always to provide you with honest, unbiased information and recommendations based on my own research and experience. If, however, a company ever approaches labsorbit.com to publish sponsored content, I promise to make it crystal clear at the very beginning of that post, so there’s no confusion.
The most important thing for me is your trust. I only ever recommend products or services on labsorbit.com that I genuinely believe in, use myself, or would happily suggest to my own friends and family. When you make a purchase through one of my affiliate links, it truly makes a difference. It helps support the time and effort I put into my research and creating valuable content for you. Thank you so much for your support – I really, truly appreciate you!
