At Flooringscan.com, transparency and trust are important to us. This Affiliate Disclosure explains how we earn revenue from certain links on our site and how that compensation affects — or does not affect — the recommendations and content you find here.
Participation in Affiliate Programs
Flooringscan.com participates in various affiliate marketing programs, including the Amazon Associates program and other third-party affiliate networks. These programs allow us to earn commissions when visitors click through our affiliate links and make qualifying purchases.
What This Means
- Affiliate links: Some product pages, reviews, guides, and resource lists on Flooringscan.com contain affiliate links. These links are provided at no extra cost to you.
- Commissions: If you click an affiliate link and then purchase a product, we may receive a small commission or referral fee from the merchant. The commission comes from the merchant—your price remains the same.
- Third-party programs: We work with multiple affiliate partners, and commission structures vary by program. Amazon Associates is one of the primary programs we use to provide a wide selection of flooring products and accessories.
How Commissions Are Earned
Commissions are typically earned through a tracking code embedded in the affiliate link. When you click an affiliate link, the code records the referral and any qualifying purchase made within the merchant’s specified time window. The merchant then pays a commission to the affiliate program, which may share a portion of that commission with Flooringscan.com.
Examples of Commission Processes
- Click an affiliate link on Flooringscan.com.
- You are redirected to the merchant’s site (for example, Amazon).
- If you make a qualifying purchase within the merchant’s tracking period, the sale is recorded and a commission is credited to the program.
- Flooringscan.com may receive a share of that commission for the referral.
Independence of Recommendations
We want to be clear: affiliate partnerships do not influence our editorial content. Our product reviews, buying guides, and recommendations are based on research, testing, and experience. We recommend products we believe are valuable to our readers regardless of whether they include an affiliate link.
Maintaining Credibility
- Unbiased evaluations: Our primary goal is to help you make informed flooring decisions. We evaluate products on quality, performance, value, and suitability for specific use cases.
- No additional cost: Using an affiliate link does not increase the price you pay for a product.
- Disclosure and clarity: We disclose affiliate relationships to maintain openness and trust with our audience.
Final Notes
If you prefer not to use affiliate links, you can navigate directly to merchants’ websites. Regardless of how you shop, Flooringscan.com remains committed to delivering accurate, helpful, and trustworthy information about flooring products and installation solutions.
