Our Affiliate Disclosure in Detail
StartSiteNow participates in affiliate programs offered by leading web hosting companies, website builders, and online education platforms. When you click on a link and make a purchase, we may receive a commission at no extra cost to you. This affiliate disclosure applies to all product links, buttons, and recommendations across our website, including our reviews of Hostinger, Bluehost, SiteGround, and other tools.
How Affiliate Links Work on Our Site
When you visit a product page through one of our links, a small tracking cookie is placed in your browser. If you complete a purchase within the cookie period, we earn a referral fee. This process is standard across the internet and is governed by FTC guidelines on endorsements and disclosures. We follow these rules carefully to maintain transparency with our readers.
Our Editorial Independence
Affiliate partnerships never influence our editorial opinions. We test every product we recommend and provide honest assessments of both advantages and disadvantages. Our review process includes signing up for each service, testing features, evaluating customer support, and comparing pricing. If a product does not meet our standards, we will not recommend it regardless of the affiliate commission.
Which Programs We Participate In
We are affiliates for several reputable programs, including web hosting providers, website building tools, email marketing platforms, SEO tools, and online course platforms. Each partnership is carefully selected based on the quality and value the product offers to beginners building their first websites.
