In Plain English:
This blog contains affiliate links and banner ads. Hey, it’s a blog about Internet marketing, so there’s bound to be some marketing going on here, right?
There are really two things that I want to disclaim as clearly as possible.
1. This blog is monetized. In other words, I do make some money from some of the posts and links on this site.
2. This blog is not just a money-site. Meaning that RQR was not created primarily to earn me money, it was created primarily to share info about Internet marketing and for me to have a place where I can record my musings on this subject. It was also created because blogging is enjoyable and I like the community interaction that comes with it.
Making money is a pleasant side-effect of all this, not the blog’s main purpose.
More importantly, this means that I will never lie to you just to make a few bucks. I don’t give positive reviews in the hopes of getting more sales and I don’t promote crap because it has a high commission. I never push product and I never hard-sell. My only aim is to inform.
If you have any questions about this, please get in touch with me.
And now the same thing in Formal Language:
This blog is a personal blog written and edited by me. For questions about this blog, please contact:
