Hey guys on level 3 lesson 4 or 5 and it's having me add affiliate links....it doesn't mention having to add an affiliate disclosure, but after leaving feedback or comments on
Here it is - it explains all you need to know about affiliate disclosures Affiliate Disclosures, FTC Guidelines, and Amazon Rules
Hi Amber
Yes you should include an affiliate disclosure on all your posts and pages that have affiliate links. This is a bit of a gap in the training as I made the same mistake. Also there is special text you should use if you are an Amazon Affiliate. Which reminds me I have to do that too. I'll send that to you when I find it.
Best regards
Andy
You should have an affiliate disclosure page and reference that page from your posts containing affiliate links.
Take a look at my drone site for an example:

FTC DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS
You must include a disclosure statement within any and all pages, blog/posts, or social media posts where affiliate links for our affiliate program are posted as an endorsement or review, and where it is not clear that the link is a paid advertisement. This disclosure statement should be clear and concise, stating that we are compensating you for your review or endorsement. If you received the product for free from us or from the affiliate management team for review, this also must be clearly stated in your disclosure.
• Disclosures must be made as close as possible to the claims.
• Disclosures should be placed above the fold; scrolling should not be necessary to find the disclosure. (e.g. Disclosure should be visible before the jump).
• Pop-up disclosures are prohibited.
For more information about FTC disclosure requirements, please review the FTC's "Dot Com Disclosures" Guidelines at http://www.ftc.gov/os/2013/03/130312dotcomdisclosures.pdf ; and the FTC's

So level 2 lesson 4 says I need to leave feedback on 2 websites....no one is requesting feedback though....can I go on to the next lesson and just keep trying to check and see
Hi - you can either move on, or use this thread instead. Please Give Me Feedback on My Website
Oooh! Ok on the lesson it says to use the site feedback. So that you get credits and then use those credits to request your own feedback on your website.
Hi - yes, that is what usually happens, but on occasions when there are no requests, it's perfectly acceptable to use the thread instead.
The "pay it forward" method is used, so once you have given feedback on two other sites within the thread, then you can ask for it for your site.

Hello all, just had a question about referencing someone who helped me with my research for the content of an article. I’m on level 2 lesson 3 writing my first article...
It is quite common for Bloggers in similar niches to refer to and even link to each other. Does you no harm with Google either. Love the profile photo by the way I am Father of 5.
Good luck🧐
Thank you! That was another thing I was wondering if it would hurt my rating to have another website linked in the content of the article....I wish she had etsy....
Haha thank you! That’s my 1 and only in there. He’s out now, 5 months old!
I see no problem with it since you two have a standing agreement to reference each others work. But I'm not a legal scholar. I don't even play one on TV. Let's let others chime in first.
