Affiliates, FTC and LInking to my Blog

[Lifeimprovement]

Hello,

I have several products and then a blog where I post a lot of articles about the niche.

My affiliate program is set up so affiliate can link to any blog post and get credit if the buyer goes to the sales page and buys.

If the buyer is just linking to a blog post (non sales page) does he/she need to still give the standard "I am affiliated with this product and get a commission if someone buys" deal?

Thanks!

I'd say that the best answer is yes, your affiliates should include disclaimers.

The fact that the link leads to a blog entry rather than a sales page would likely make no difference. The reason they are linking to you hasn't changed simply because it isn't a sales page.
