Affiliate Disclosure: Being Transparent With You

Welcome to our disclosure page! I believe that honesty and transparency are the foundations of a great relationship with our readers, and we want to be completely upfront about how we operate and earn money.

What is an Affiliate Disclosure?

Thank you for reading my affiliate disclosure page, if you have not read my about page my name is Jeff owner and writer of BoomerBizHQ

Throughout this website, you will see links to products and services that I genuinely recommend. These are called “affiliate links.” If you click on one of these links and end up buying something, we might receive a small percentage of that sale from the company—at absolutely no extra cost to you. The price you pay remains the same whether you use our link or go directly to the vendor’s website.

So that is basically what an affiliate disclosure page is, I have included this on my menu for easy access for readers like you read.

Why I Am Sharing My Affiliate Disclosure Page

We share this for two main reasons:

  1. To be Transparent: I want you to know exactly how this website is supported and how we keep the content, guides, and resources coming without charging you. It’s important to us that you trust my recommendations.
  2. It’s the Right Thing to Do: I only promote products and services that we have personally used, vetted, or genuinely believe will be valuable to you. My main goal is always to help you, and the commission is just a way for me to be compensated for the time and effort it takes to create quality content.
  3. Affiliate disclosure is to let you know my website is legit and not a scam, so feel free to read my entire affiliate disclosure and ask questions in my reply form is encouraged.

Using our links is a wonderful way to support my website—thank you! for taking the time to read my affiliate disclosure page. I appreciate your support, which allows this website to continue providing the best possible content.

Feel Free to Read My Affiliate Disclosure

In 2015, the Federal Trade Commission released their new rules for Disclosure Compliance. These rules are set in place to ensure that readers or viewers of web media (blogs, Youtube videos, etc.) know if the blogger/presenter is sponsored, endorsed, or partnered with a different company. In blog terms, the readers need to know if the blogger is making money by sharing a link or product.

In compliance with the FTC guidelines, please assume the following about links and posts on this site: Any/all of the links boomerbizhq.com are affiliate links that I receive a small compensation from sales of certain items.

What are affiliate links?

Purchases are made on external affiliate company websites: When a reader clicks on an affiliate link located on boomerbizhq.com to purchase an item, the reader buys the item from the seller directly (not from bommerbizhq.com. Amazon and/or other companies pay boomerbizhqy.com a small commission or other compensation for promoting their website or products through their affiliate program.

Prices are the same for you if your purchase is through an affiliate link or a non-affiliate link. You will not pay more by clicking through the link.

I use two main types of affiliate programs:

1. Amazon affiliate links.

boomerbizhq.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon properties including, but not limited to, amazon.com. Amazon offers a small commission on products sold through their affiliate links.

If a blogger links to an Amazon product (with a special code for affiliates embedded in the link), and a reader places an item in their “shopping cart” through that link within 24 hours of clicking the link, the blogger gets a small percentage of the sale. Amazon links are not “pay per click.” If you click on the product link and stay around Amazon and purchase something else, however, I will get a commission on that sale.

Anytime you see a link that looks like astore.com/… or amazon.com… it can be assumed that it is an Amazon affiliate link.

2. Product affiliate links.
These affiliate links work the same way: if you click the link and buy the product, then the blogger gets a percentage of the sale or some other type of compensation. Things like e-book bundles, e-courses, and online packages are usually affiliate links, as well. Again, prices are not different if you use these affiliate links. You will not pay more by clicking through the link. These links are not “pay per click” unless otherwise denoted.

What about sponsored content?

I do not write sponsored posts. I want to bring you real, unbiased information. However, if a post is sponsored by a company and it is a paid sponsorship, I will disclose this clearly in the beginning of the post.

Frequently Asked Questions 

I have attempted to answer some of your questions you might have about my affiliate disclosure page below

Does using an affiliate link cost me extra?

Absolutely not. The price you pay for any product or service is exactly the same whether you use our affiliate link or go directly to the vendor’s website. The commission we earn is paid by the company, not by you.

Does the commission influence your recommendations?

No. Our editorial integrity is paramount. We only recommend products and services we have personally used, tested, or genuinely believe will provide significant value to you, our reader. Earning a commission is secondary to providing honest, unbiased information. If we don’t think a product is worthwhile, we won’t promote it.

How do I know which links are affiliate links?

For complete transparency, we make a good faith effort to identify all affiliate links. Often, you will see a small note near the link or at the beginning of a post stating that it contains affiliate links. However, to keep things simple, you should assume that most links directing you to a third-party product or service are affiliate links.

If I return a product, do you still get the commission?

No. Affiliate programs are designed to compensate us for successful, long-term sales. If you return a product or cancel a service, the commission we earned is typically reversed or deducted from our future payments. This ensures we are only compensated for valid purchases that you ultimately keep.

That concludes my affiliate disclosure page, once again I thank you for taking the time to read my affiliate discloure page.
