HELP!! My Question About the New FTC Guidelines...
I understand this to mean that you were paid BEFORE you made the review, such as this scenario:
Company comes to you and says "We'll pay you $XXX to review this on your blog/site"
You say "Ok."
You then review the product/service/whatever and state in the review that you did get paid by the company too review this product/service/whatever.
My question is this:
What if I review products on my site and I ONLY get paid AFTER someone goes to Amazon, eBay, wherever to buy what I'm reviewing?
In other words, I WAS NOT paid BEFORE I made the review at all; I only get paid AFTER someone reads my review, clicks my affiliate link, and orders what I reviewed.
I'm looking at sites like Get Rich Slowly and The Simple Dollar as examples of what I'm asking. They do a lot of financial book reviews and their reviews lead to Amazon for affiliate commissions. They don't get paid before they review the book, they get paid AFTERWARDS.
Should I put a disclaimer page on my blog stating that if someone reads my reviews of whatever books I review on my blog and they click my link to go to Amazon, eBay, wherever, that I will make a small commission?
How should I address this?
Thanks, Warriors! Help a brothah out!
