WiredAndBuilt is committed to transparency. This page explains how we earn money through affiliate links and what that means for you as a reader.
How We Earn
Some of the links on WiredAndBuilt are affiliate links. This means that if you click on a link and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you.
Specifically, WiredAndBuilt is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.
What This Means for You
- You never pay more. Clicking an affiliate link does not increase the price of any product. The commission comes from the retailer, not from you.
- We only recommend products we believe in. Every product mentioned on this site is something we have used, researched, or genuinely believe offers value. Our opinions are our own and are not influenced by affiliate partnerships.
- Affiliate links are clearly identified. Articles containing affiliate links include a disclosure notice near the top of the page.
Why We Use Affiliate Links
Running a content site takes time and effort — researching products, writing guides, testing builds, and keeping everything up to date. Affiliate commissions help support this work and allow us to continue creating free, in-depth content for the DIY and smart home community.
Our Promise
We will never recommend a product solely because it pays a higher commission. If something isn't worth your money, we won't link to it. Our goal is to help you make informed decisions — not to push products.
If you ever feel that a recommendation doesn't live up to expectations, we want to hear about it. Reach out to us at wiredandbuilt.com@gmail.com.
