WPMytics uses affiliate links. This page explains what that means, which programs we participate in, how those relationships affect our coverage (they do not), and how to spot an affiliate link on our pages.
1. What an affiliate link is
When you click an affiliate link on WPMytics and go on to buy a product or sign up for a service, the merchant pays us a commission. The price you pay is not increased by using an affiliate link. Commissions are a way for publishers like us to earn a share of the value we create when we help a reader find the right product.
2. Why we use affiliate links
Affiliate commissions, together with display advertising and sponsored content, let WPMytics stay independent. No single advertiser or affiliate partner supplies enough of our revenue to influence what we cover or how we rate it. That mix is on purpose.
3. Programs we participate in
WPMytics is a participant in affiliate programs run by companies whose products we cover. These include, but are not limited to:
- Hosting: Kinsta, WP Engine, Cloudways, SiteGround, Rocket.net, Hostinger
- Page builders and themes: Elementor, Kadence, Astra
- Performance and caching: WP Rocket, Perfmatters, FlyingPress
- Security: Wordfence, Sucuri, Patchstack
- Backups and migration: BlogVault, Duplicator, WP Migrate
- Forms and email: Gravity Forms, WP Fluent Forms, ConvertKit, MailerLite
- SEO and content: RankMath PRO, Semrush, Ahrefs, Frase
- WooCommerce extensions and payment tools
This list changes as we add coverage and as partners update their programs. The fact that a product is or is not on this list is not an endorsement: we cover products on editorial merit, not on commercial availability.
4. How affiliate relationships affect our coverage
They do not affect which products we review, what we say about them, or how we rank them in comparisons. Our full approach is laid out in our Editorial Standards. In short:
- We review products after hands-on testing, not from press kits
- We recommend the product that is best for the reader, even when the alternative pays a higher commission
- We name the weaknesses of products in the same review as their strengths
- We do not accept payment, gifts, or other compensation in exchange for a specific verdict
- We cover great products that have no affiliate program, because editorial merit is what decides coverage
When a product in an article is one we have an affiliate relationship with, we say so in the article in addition to the general disclosure on this page.
5. How to spot an affiliate link
Affiliate links on WPMytics follow a few consistent patterns so you can always tell:
- Articles that contain affiliate links carry a short disclosure at the top of the page
- Individual affiliate links are marked with
rel="sponsored"in the HTML, as required by search engines and advertising regulators - Product-recommendation buttons that go to an affiliate destination are labeled visibly
- When a specific plan or tier earns us a commission that another plan does not, we mention that detail in the article
6. Regulatory basis
This disclosure reflects our obligations under the United States Federal Trade Commission’s guidance on endorsements (16 CFR Part 255), the UK Competition and Markets Authority’s rules on paid-for content, and equivalent regulations in other jurisdictions. It is written so that a reasonable reader understands our commercial relationships before making a decision.
7. Questions
If you have any question about our affiliate practices, or a partnership inquiry, email [email protected]. We take this part of our operation seriously: if you ever feel an article crosses the line into advertising dressed up as editorial, tell us and we will review it.
