Affiliate disclosure – as a small business, we don’t have a large budget to spend on tools or publishing and marketing. However, those things are crucial for authors to reach readers.
How Is loulovesbooks.com Funded?
We believe in being honest and transparent with our audience. That’s the only way to build a community.
So yes, we have to make money, otherwise we would have to shut the site down.
On this site, we use dynamic links that direct consumers to the correct web retailer storefront for their country (“Universal Book Links” or “UBLs”).
When a consumer clicks on a UBL and buys something on the retailer’s site, we may receive compensation as an affiliate commission. Clicking on a link doesn’t cost the consumer anything. The retailer pays the commission.
In full transparency, and in compliance with FTC guidelines, we want to inform you of the following:
Besides royalties from book sales, we also make money from:-
Affiliate Links
In certain cases, book links are affiliate links and we will earn a small commission from sales. The referral fees vary for each product. For a book that you may buy at Amazon, we might earn up to $1.
Amazon Disclosure
We take part in Amazon’s affiliate programs, which provide a means to earn fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com, Amazon.ca, Amazon.com.mx, Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.fr, Amazon.de, Amazon.es, Amazon.it, Amazon.in, Amazon.cn, Amazon.co.jp, Amazon.com.au and Amazon.com.br.
Reviews
We may use an affiliate link in conjunction with a review of a product. In some of those cases, we have received the product for free from the seller. All opinions are our own, and we do not accept payments for positive reviews.
Sponsored Content
This site may use UBLs with sponsored content – content that was created for, or on behalf of, a paying party and that party may be the seller of the product, or compensated by the seller for purchases of the product.
Question 1—Will it Cost Me More Money?
No. Absolutely not, and sometimes it may save you money.
Question 2—Do You See My Personal Details?
Nope. We don’t see any personal information, i.e. name, email, address, credit card, etc.
The only thing we see is that an anonymous user made a purchase on date/time and which product they bought.
Final thoughts…
We will never retire on the back of affiliate marketing, but it helps to keep the tea and the words flowing!
