How We Make Money

Hey there! I wanted to explain how I make money through my blog and why transparency is so important to me.

I work with third-party companies as an affiliate, which means I earn money by promoting their products and services. But don’t worry—my reviews, comparisons, and content are always based on thorough analysis, not payment. This is how I keep the site running and provide valuable content to my readers.

One thing I really believe in is being upfront with how I earn. That’s why you’ll see an affiliate disclosure at the start of any blog post that contains affiliate links. These links are provided by companies I partner with, and I may get paid when you click on them, sign up for something, or make a purchase. I may also occasionally write sponsored posts, where companies pay me to feature them. Some companies approach me, and sometimes I reach out to them—but either way, I clearly label these posts as sponsored. Even when I’m paid, the opinions I share are 100% my own!

Throughout the year, I will also collaborate with specific affiliate partners who will be helpful to my readers. You’ll see these partners featured prominently on the site, but again, everything is labelled clearly, and I only feature companies I genuinely believe in. I’m super picky about the companies I work with because my main goal is to provide value to my readers. That’s why I either have firsthand experience with the companies I recommend or do extensive research before promoting them. Maintaining the integrity of my content is always a priority.

I’m also fully transparent about how I make money and do my best to ensure everything is transparent and honest. My income helps support my amazing family and me, which is why I work so hard to bring you well-researched, accurate, and up-to-date content.

As the industry changes, so do some companies I partner with. I stay on top of updates, from new features to pricing, and if a company no longer aligns with my values or your needs, I end the partnership immediately.

Lastly, your feedback means the world to me! Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any concerns about a company I’m working with or how I make money. I’m here to provide helpful content and to be as transparent as possible!
