Disclosure Policy

I added a disclosure policy to this blog today. When I was only doing a few sponsored posts here and there, I thought using the “Sponsored Posts” label was enough to clue potential readers into the fact I was being compensated by companies for some of my writing, and counted on the fact that my readers probably knew me well enough to understand that I would never shill for something I couldn’t get behind. Now that I’m in a bit of a cash-crunch, I will be doing more posts for more companies, and figured it might be a good time to have an official statement on how I go about getting paid to post. Mostly, I want to make it clear that I never have and never will offer a false or misleading testimonial — I only give my honest opinions, take them or leave them — and will never post content that I personally find to be objectionable, immoral, or exceedingly pointless. Unless I am favorably inclined to a product or service already, I won’t be taking offers from companies requiring a “positive” tone, as I don’t think cash can substitute for integrity. My blog is my own, and I plan to keep it that way. Unless of course someone offers me a million dollars and a house and a pony — but I’ll warn you if that happens. :)
