- I sometimes post affiliate links on my blog. This means that if you click on one of those links, and then purchase the item, a small percentage of the money comes back to me to support my blog. Examples of affiliate links are products on Amazon.com and the Digi Files banner below. I prefer this type of advertising over hosting sponsor ads because I have full control over what I promote. I think this allows me to be unbiased when writing about things. If I ever decide to have sponsors, besides affiliates, I will update this statement.
