When we make a promise, we intend to give you the chance to know all there is to know about those promises. I mean, promises are a big deal. So we want to give you the lowdown and breakdown what our affiliate disclosure means for you and, of course, for us.

We find something clicky-click worthy, and it’s more than likely going to be something we’re already talking about or something we’ve used before. Why showcase something to you if we don’t think it’ll be valuable? Our word matters to us, so it’s safe to say any ads we place on our site won’t be just because we want to place an ad on our site. Trust us, we hate ads, too. So it better be good, right?

If you like the ad we hoped you’d like, you’re free to buy the thing using said ad. But, of course, you’re far from obligated, and we can all just enjoy the fact that there was at least a pretty little picture to go along with what you were reading.

If you do buy something and click that link or image to do so, we will get a small amount of that purchase. It doesn’t change what you spend. It just gives us more reason to make sure what we give you is good stuff. And it makes sharing that worth the ten seconds it takes to copy and paste the affiliate link.

So, hopefully that breaks it down. It’s simple, really. You’re not just buying into whatever big-company thing when you buy something. If it’s a book, you’re helping an author, too, of course, but we’re all getting some little or big reward for it, and the world continues to circle the sun.

And we all lived happily ever after.
