I guess it’s time I write this FTC blogging disclosure so I can make sure everything is on the up and up on this blog. As of December 1st 2009, I’m required to disclose that I may be getting paid at times for the material I promote on Stuart-Ross.com
I don’t sell too much stuff on this blog. Most of the time I just write about my random experiences and give away things I believe to be of value. That may change in the future, but the primary use of this blog is to keep people posted with what I am up to and how I may be able to help them.
However, I am required to tell you that any time you click on a link on this website, there is a chance that I may be paid if you buy a product on the other end. For the sake of argument, lets just assume that I get paid on EVERY link you see on this website.
The bottom line is this, I do participate in affiliate marketing and I do blog. When I talk about a product, I often have a affiliate link attached to that product. When someone buys that product, I get paid. It’s that simple.
According to the new law from the FTC, I need to disclose this to you.
That said, I don’t promote junk or accept money or gifts to skew my opinions EVER! I tell the truth about each and every product and cannot be bought to say something nice about your product or service.
Personally I think these new rules are a bit much, but hey, I understand why they exist. The FTC is trying to protect the consumer because god knows they can’t protect themselves. And yes, there are a ton of affiliate scum marketers out there I am sure.
So be careful about what you buy and who you buy from. Eat your vegetables and don’t do drugs. And remember that when you buy stuff that I talk about on this blog or anywhere else, I may get paid. (Preferably not in drachma or IOU’s)
Last but not least, I promise to spend a portion of the money I make on traveling the world, nice cars and on tasty treats for my dog Bossman!
- All the best,
Stuart Ross
