Affiliate Disclosure
Generator Switch Guide is committed to transparency. This page explains how we make money and how affiliate relationships work on our site.
How We Make Money
Generator Switch Guide participates in several affiliate programs that allow us to earn commissions when you purchase products through our links. This includes:
- Amazon Associates: As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases made through our Amazon links.
- Other Retail Affiliates: We may participate in affiliate programs with Home Depot, Lowe's, Electric Generators Direct, and manufacturer programs.
What This Means for You
When you click a product link on our site and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission. This comes at no additional cost to you—the price you pay is the same whether you use our link or go directly to the retailer.
Our Editorial Independence
Our affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content. We choose which products to recommend based on:
- Product quality and reliability
- Value for money
- Customer reviews and satisfaction
- Industry standards and code compliance
- Our own research and testing
We never recommend a product simply because it has a higher commission rate. Our reputation depends on providing honest, helpful recommendations.
Identifying Affiliate Links
Affiliate links on our site are typically found in:
- Product recommendation boxes
- "Check Price on Amazon" buttons
- Comparison tables with purchase links
- In-text product mentions with links to retailers
Articles that contain affiliate links will include a disclosure notice near the top of the page.
Why We Use Affiliate Links
Creating comprehensive guides, conducting product research, and maintaining this website requires significant time and resources. Affiliate commissions help us:
- Keep all content free for readers
- Research and write new articles
- Update existing content to keep it accurate
- Pay for hosting, tools, and other operational costs
