Perhaps a bit of explanation is in order.
When I began this blog, it was a way to get information out and to connect with people of similar interests. I knew almost nothing about blogging (other than the word meant “weblog”, something like an on-line journal) and, of course, I quickly became aware of Google adsense (which I used on the old blog and have not decided yet whether to install on this one).
Then a friend mentioned affiliate marketing, which sounded like fun! (The E in my Holland Abilities Code stands for Enterprising.) To see which stores I am eligible to receive a commission from, click on my Affiliate Shopping page. If you enjoy the blog and are planning on buying something anyway, you are invited to use those links. No pressure. Many of the companies send me emails about their events, which info I will attempt to share with you.
(Incidentally, as an affiliate I am able to legally use their photos. I have been informed by some companies, when I was declined for their affiliate programs, that I may not link to their site in any way.)
I am pleased to announce now that, since becoming aware of them when I asked where you would shop if you had a greater budget, I have been accepted into the affiliate program with Boden!
If you have never shopped Boden before:
11% off + FREE Shipping and Returns for NEW Boden customers only!
They do have sales!
I LOVE affiliate programs…not so much for the potential to earn money, but for the free use of their photos. I think it’s a brilliant marketing strategy on their part…since I got my own domain, I’ve become an affiliate with allposters.com (endless pics! and easy link builders) and am in the process of affiliating with Christian Book Distributors.
Glad the bug bit you too…and I look forward to saving money through your site when applicable! Never heard of Boden!
You are right, Mary, the free photos is the big perk. And CBD will be a great fit for you.
I had never heard of Boden either, but I’m glad to know about them and looking forward to becoming more familiar with them. It’s been mentioned here before that they have good sales. 🙂
