In Site Content, there is an "Affiliate Disclosure" template. When should I add this to my site? Before I apply for amazon? Before I add ANY affiliate links?
Hi,
Agreed, before you put a link, you should or should I said, you have to have a disclosure. Great question.

When to add affiliate disclosure to website?

Affiliate link disclosures are an FTC-mandated practice, FTC means Free Trade Commission. Basically, whenever a link is used on your website that results in a commission, you must disclose this information to site visitors. This extends beyond affiliate links, and must also be done for endorsements, sponsorships, and the like. Cheers!

I am reviewing a company’s services for an upcoming blog. Can I take a screenshot of their website or use the company’s logo in my post?
Strictly spoken you're not allowed to use designs of others. But you are allowed to quote. And it seems to me that you would be quoting here.
Have a great day,

Hi FlyBrian,
I find a screenshot is safer to use in a blog. A clean shot of the website or a video (tagged for public viewing) of the company sharing its services is to me worth it's weight in gold in building trust.
What might happen if the company contacted you re the use of their logo?
I'm sure you will get additional feedback for those who have greater experience with this.
