affiliate sales marketing

Throughout this website you’ll find purchase hyperlinks (links) or codes for products and services I have used and recommend because they have worked for me. It’s like a word of mouth referral from a friend. As an affiliate marketer when you purchase a product or service using these links and/or codes I make a commission that does “not” affect the price you pay. Since my recommendations are what worked for me at a particular time, please keep in mind a store/vendor can make changes to products and services without my knowledge. When this happens let me know. See below frequently asked questions (FAQ) and glossary which are being updated as new questions arise. If you don’t find your answer use the contact form at the bottom of this page or email me at info@middelagedteen.com and I will do my best to answer your question(s).
