Advertising Disclosure
Last Updated: November 8, 2025
Our Commitment to Transparency
At TechCraft, we believe in complete transparency regarding our business relationships and how we may earn revenue. This Advertising Disclosure explains our affiliate relationships, sponsored content policies, and advertising practices.
We are committed to maintaining your trust by being upfront about any financial relationships that may influence the content on our website. Our recommendations are always based on our professional expertise and genuine belief in the quality of products or services we mention.
Affiliate Relationships and Partnerships
Participation in Affiliate Programs
TechCraft participates in various affiliate marketing programs. This means we may earn commissions when you click on certain links and make purchases of products or services through those links.
Affiliate programs we may participate in include technology platforms, hosting services, development tools, and other business solutions relevant to web development.
How Affiliate Commissions Work
- Commission Structure: When you make a purchase through an affiliate link, we may receive a small percentage of the sale at no additional cost to you
- No Extra Cost: Using our affiliate links does not increase the price you pay for products or services
- Cookie Tracking: Affiliate programs use cookies to track referrals and ensure we receive proper credit for recommendations
- Support for Our Work: Commission earnings help support our website operations and content creation
Product Recommendation Policies
Our product and service recommendations follow these principles:
• We only recommend tools, services, and products we have personally evaluated or used
• Our recommendations are based on genuine professional assessment and belief in quality
• The presence of an affiliate relationship does not influence our honest evaluation
• We clearly disclose when content contains affiliate links
• We never recommend products solely because of commission potential
Financial Relationship Transparency
We maintain complete transparency about our financial relationships. When we mention products or services that provide us with affiliate commissions, we make reasonable efforts to disclose this relationship. However, please assume that any link to an external product or service may be an affiliate link.
