If you’ve been on the web for any length of time you’ll be aware of the rubbish ‘reviews’ written by many affiliates trying to make money by promoting products.   Even if you have been writing honest reviews you will still need to make a few tweaks to your pages to make sure you stay within the FTC’s guidlines.

In a nutshell, the FTC say that all reviews that contain your affiliate link to a product must state this clearly and visibly so that the reader knows you will be paid a fee if they buy the product through your link.

This doesn’t have to be all negative though and to really understand how to go about implementing the new laws successfully I strongly recommend that you go now and read Mark Ling’s excellent blog post where he explains everything clearly and also suggests how to go modify your reviews so that you have no loss in your profits…

Here’s the link to FTC plans to regulate bloggers, but what does it mean for me?!

Happy blogging and continued profits!
