Affiliate Disclosure

Part of what keeps DigInGuide running is affiliate revenue. You should know where it comes from and what it does not buy.

In practice

When a purchase follows one of those links, the seller sends us a small percentage. Your total is exactly what it would have been otherwise.

How we decide

Recommendations rest on documentation rather than on claims we cannot show you: specifications, manufacturer material, relevant standards, and what owners consistently report. Personal experience is labelled when present.

Identifying them

Affiliate links are not hidden. Where a link earns us something, the page says so nearby, and this disclosure is linked from the footer of every page on the site.

Prices and availability

We cannot promise a price or that something is still sold. Both belong to the retailer and both move. Take any number in an article as a snapshot, not a quotation.

Why we must say this

This disclosure exists because United States law requires it. The Federal Trade Commission’s endorsement guides oblige a publisher to reveal a material connection to a product it recommends, clearly and close to the recommendation. That is the standard this page is written to meet.

Why a product appears here

The choice of what to recommend happens before any question of commission. No brand has editorial input on a gardening page, and none is shown a draft.

The ads on the page

Google AdSense fills the advertising space automatically. We do not choose those advertisers and we do not vouch for them.
