Lake Webster News Affiliate Disclosure
In 2015, the Federal Trade Commission released new rules for Disclosure Compliance. These rules ensure that readers and viewers of online media (blogs, YouTube videos, etc.) know if the blogger or publisher is sponsored, endorsed, or partnered with another company. In short, readers should know if the site makes money by sharing a link or product.
In compliance with FTC guidelines, please assume the following about links and posts on LakeWebsterNews.com: any or all of the links are affiliate links, from which we may receive a small commission if you make a purchase.
What Are Affiliate Links?
When you click on an affiliate link on LakeWebsterNews.com and purchase a product, you are buying directly from the seller, not from us. Companies such as Amazon and others pay LakeWebsterNews.com a commission for promoting their products through affiliate programs.
Prices remain the same for you whether you use an affiliate link or a regular link. You will not pay more by using our affiliate links.
Types of Affiliate Programs We Use
1. Amazon Affiliate Links
LakeWebsterNews.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program that allows websites to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and other Amazon properties.
If you click an Amazon affiliate link and place an item in your shopping cart within 24 hours, we may earn a small commission. This also applies if you purchase something else while browsing Amazon after clicking our link. Amazon affiliate links are not “pay per click.”
Any link that looks like amazon.com/… can be assumed to be an Amazon affiliate link.
2. Product Affiliate Links
We also use affiliate links for other products, such as e-books, courses, and online tools. If you click and make a purchase, we may earn a commission or receive another form of compensation.
Again, the price is the same for you. Using these links does not increase your cost. Unless noted, these links are not “pay per click.”
Sponsored Content
At LakeWebsterNews.com, we do not write sponsored posts. Our goal is to provide real and unbiased information. If a post is ever sponsored, we will clearly disclose it at the beginning of the article.
