I always want to be upfront about how things work behind the scenes on my site. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has clear guidelines on sharing affiliate relationships. You can read more straight from the FTC’s website. These rules are in place so you know if a blog or review includes links that might earn a commission. I share these affiliate disclosures to keep you in the loop whenever a product I mention could earn me some income if you decide to buy it.
If you see links anywhere on amadeoaffiliates.com or my related posts, you can usually assume they’re affiliate links. That means I earn a small referral fee if you purchase after clicking. This never affects your price, and I only share products or services I genuinely use or recommend.
What are affiliate links?
Affiliate links send you to other companies’ websites, where you can buy products or services. If you click a link on my blog to check something out, you go straight to the seller’s site. You never purchase directly from me. If you end up buying, I get a small thank-you reward from the company for spreading the word.
Your price doesn’t change at all, whether you click through my link or buy the usual way. There’s no extra fee for you, and there’s no pressure. I just get a small bonus for sharing, which helps keep this site going and allows me to create more content you like.
Affiliate marketing is pretty popular today. Many websites and bloggers use affiliate links as one way to earn income online while providing reviews, guides, and useful tips. But it’s important to always know when a writer may be earning money from a recommendation. That’s why I like to keep everything transparent and explain exactly how it works.
Types of affiliate programs I use
1. Amazon affiliate links
amadeoaffiliates.com takes part in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. This is Amazon’s official way for creators to share product links and get a commission if purchases are made. When you see a link to something next-level cool on Amazon (with a tracking code in the link), just know that any purchase you make, even if it’s something completely different from what I linked, could earn me a percentage. These links are not paid per click. I only earn if you buy something after clicking on an affiliate link.
Whenever you spot a link that leads to amazon.com or includes a long, coded URL, it’s probably an Amazon affiliate link. Shopping this way helps me keep this site up and running without costing you anything extra. If you’re curious about a product or searching for good deals, those Amazon links might help you stumble upon something new.
2. Other product affiliate links
Besides Amazon, I sometimes link to other products, online courses, or bundles. These work the same way: if you buy through my link, I get a small part of the sale, but your price stays the same. It’s just another way for me to support my work while sharing products I truly like and think you might find useful. These links are not “pay per click” unless I say otherwise.
If something is ever both an affiliate link and a sponsored opportunity, I’ll let you know right up front. I want you to trust this site and feel confident in every recommendation or review you come across. Please feel free to ask if you ever have questions about a particular partnership or link.
Sponsored content and full disclosure
You won’t see paid sponsorship posts here; that’s just not my thing. I aim to provide real, useful information, and if anything ever is sponsored or paid for by a company, you’ll see a note right away. I always want you to have all the facts so you know exactly how things work and you can feel good about the choices you make.
Wrapping up, keeping things honest and honest communication is important to me. If you ever need more details or clarification about affiliate links, partnerships, or recommendations, please check in any time. Thank you for your support—it truly helps keep this adventure going!
