So there’s been a recent FTC ruling requiring all bloggers and website owners who may make a few bucks by recommending products to disclose this fact. (See the New York Times article here.)
(I may make money by running advertising on my site? Gasp!)
So, even though I think my readers are smart enough to figure this out on their own, I’m going to provide a formal disclosure, just in case someone at the FTC decides to come knocking on my door, asking about this.
Some of the links from KettlebellWall to sites of interest may contain a small piece of information to inform the sites I send you to that I’m the one who sent you.
Then if you decide to make a purchase from those sites, they may pay me a portion of your purchase as a referral fee.
It happens everywhere on the internet, including here.
Let me add something to that though.
I’M NOT being paid in advance for endorsing anything.
I AM going out on my own, doing my own research, and picking products I like and feel excited to endorse — regardless of any compensation. Then in the cases where I can earn compensation for endorsing them, I set that up with the merchant.
It’s how the cogs of capitalism turn my friend, and what allows me to continue publishing useful information on kettlebells for you.
Disclaimer done. Thank goodness. Now we can get back to kettlebells!
Stay Strong!
Roy
