In 2015, the Federal Trade Commission released their new rules for Disclosure Compliance. These rules are set in place to ensure that readers or viewers of web media (blogs, Youtube videos, etc.) know if the blogger/presenter is sponsored, endorsed, or partnered with a different company. In blog terms, the readers need to know if the blogger is making money by sharing a link or product.

In compliance with the FTC guidelines, please assume the following about links and posts on this site: Any/all of the links blueprinttopassive.com are affiliate links of which I receive a small compensation from sales of certain items.

What are affiliate links?

Purchases are made on external affiliate company websites: When a reader clicks on an affiliate link located on blueprinttopassive.com to purchase an item, the reader buys the item from the seller directly (not from blueprinttopassive.com). Amazon and/or other companies pay blueprinttopassive.com a small commission or other compensation for promoting their website or products through their affiliate program.

Prices are exactly the same for you if your purchase is through an affiliate link or a non-affiliate link. You will not pay more by clicking through to the link.

I use two main types of affiliate programs:

1. Wealthy Affiliate affiliate links.

At Blueprint to Passive, I am an affiliate for Wealthy Affiliate. This means that if you click on one of my links to Wealthy Affiliate and decide to sign up, I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. I only recommend Wealthy Affiliate because I personally use it and believe it provides real value for anyone looking to build an online business.

2. Other Product affiliate links.

From time to time, I may also recommend other tools and services that I use in my own business, such as DIVI from Elegant Themes for website design. If you purchase through these links, I may earn a commission. Again, this comes at no additional cost to you, and I only promote products I trust and find useful.

Why This Matters

Affiliate commissions help support the work I do here at Blueprint to Passive — creating free content, tutorials, and resources to help you build your own online business. Your support through these links allows me to keep sharing and growing this platform.

Transparency Promise

I will never recommend a product or service solely for the sake of earning a commission. My goal is to point you toward tools and platforms that I believe can genuinely help you succeed.

What about sponsored content?

I do not write sponsored posts. I want to bring you real, unbiased information. However, if a post is sponsored by a company and it is a paid sponsorship, I will disclose this clearly in the beginning of the post.
