Welcome to ReviewsMTB.com! We’re passionate about mountain biking and dedicated to providing you with honest, informative, and helpful reviews of mountain bikes, components, gear, and accessories. To maintain transparency and integrity, we want to be upfront about how we fund the site. This Affiliate Disclaimer & Disclosure explains our affiliate relationships and how they may impact the content you see on our website.
What is Affiliate Marketing?
Affiliate marketing is a common practice where a website (like ReviewsMTB.com) earns a commission by linking to products or services sold by other companies. When you click on one of these affiliate links and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. This commission helps support our work in creating high-quality content, conducting thorough product testing, and maintaining the website.
Think of it as a referral program. We recommend products that we believe are valuable and beneficial to our readers. If you decide to purchase those products through our links, we receive a small thank you from the retailer. This allows us to continue investing in the website and providing you with the best possible mountain biking information.
It’s important to us that you understand that our primary goal is to provide unbiased and helpful reviews. While we may earn a commission on some purchases, our reviews are based on our honest opinions and experiences with the products. We strive to provide accurate and objective information to help you make informed purchasing decisions.
Our Affiliate Relationships
ReviewsMTB.com participates in various affiliate programs. This means that you may find affiliate links to different retailers and brands throughout our website. We carefully select the affiliate programs we participate in, choosing companies that offer quality products and services that we believe will be of interest to our readers.
Amazon Associates Program
We are a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for us to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.
As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. This means that if you click on an Amazon link on our website and make a purchase, we may receive a commission. This commission helps us to cover the costs of running and maintaining ReviewsMTB.com.
We strive to only recommend products on Amazon that we have personally used or thoroughly researched and believe are of high quality and value. However, product availability and pricing on Amazon can change, so please verify all details before making a purchase.
How Affiliate Links Affect Our Reviews
We understand that you may be concerned about how affiliate links influence our reviews. We want to assure you that our editorial content is not influenced by our affiliate partnerships. Our reviews are based on our honest opinions, experiences, and research, regardless of whether or not we have an affiliate relationship with the company selling the product.
We prioritize providing accurate, objective, and helpful information to our readers. We believe that building trust and providing value is more important than earning a quick commission. Our commitment is to you, the reader, and we strive to provide the best possible mountain biking resources.
We may sometimes highlight both the pros and cons of a product, even if it’s something we’re linking to through an affiliate program. Our goal is to give you a balanced and comprehensive view so you can make an informed decision. If a product is not good, we’ll say so, even if it means we won’t earn a commission.
