Mighty Gadget is more than just a spare-time hobby, it is my primary source of income. Display and affiliate advertising are the primary way I generate money from the site.

I will always try to link to a product using affiliate links, even if I am saying good or bad things about that. You should assume all links are affiliate links.

I don’t let a links ability to generate money affect my opinion of a product, and I will always do my best to find the best link for a consumer, even if that happens to earn me less money or it turns out to not be an affiliate link.

Generally, I will always link to Amazon, because it is easiest, but I will do my best to find the cheapest price for any product possible.

Affiliate Programs I am part of:

Amazon, AWIN (multiple companies), Tapfiliate (multiple companies), Trade Double, Web Gains, and many more.

Review Samples

The vast majority of reviews done on the site are provided free of charge via a PR company. I do not let this affect the review even if it does not end up the way the company or PR firm would like.

I appreciate there is a psychological aspect of parting with your own money and your opinion of it. I am quite price-sensitive with my reviews and always do my best to look for alternative products to gain a better grasp of if a product is good relative to the cost of its competition.

Content Policies

Content written on Mighty Gadget is the opinion of myself and will be as honest to the best of my ability.

I will always attempt to credit any information that has come from a third party.

Corrections

I make mistakes a lot. Most of the time this will be harmless, spelling, grammar, mistakes in product names etc.

Some times this will be more serious, from quoting inaccurate sources or data that doesn’t accurately represent a product.

I encourage people to correct me, it is a learning process for myself, and it improves the accuracy of the blog. For corrections that are more are more serious than my quality of writing, the correction will need to be justified, for example, linking me to a product page with the correct specs.

Right to Reply

I review a lot of products; these do not always go the way some people want. Companies, or even individuals, are more than welcome to email or use the comment form to provide their opinion.

I won’t alter reviews to the benefit of a company withing explicitly stating so within the review – for example, a replacement sample was provided. In general, the company right to reply will be amended at the end of the review.
