What Are Your Thoughts?

I'm finding inconsistencies between the training and community input when it comes to including the price of a product in a review.

Here's What Makes Sense to Me

I find myself on the side of community input (well, it's actually 1 person's advice - if you're reading this .... thank you for what you told me ;)

Here's the specifics:

I went back through the Certificate training to find where this particular subject was taught.

What you see above, is a screen shot of Kyle's training in Level 3, lesson #6 where he clearly is listing the price of the Amazon product being reviewed, and he is presenting this as the way to create a review.

If someone comes across a review at some future date, where we list a price, and the price has changed ...... we end up looking the fool and lose a sale.

If he had taught, via this video, to give the Amazon link that shows the price, and someone comes across our post at some future date where the price is different from original post, Amazon would have automatically updated our link.

Maybe this policy is changed in a later lesson, but if this isn't the correct way to do this in the first place - why make it part of a training lesson at all?

My Decision:

I'm going to leave the price out of product reviews now, for the reason outlined above, plus this one -

If the price isn't shown in the review, and it happens to be a large amount, the potential customer my not get past the sticker shock and leave my review to look else where, with me gaining nothing from the click to my site.

With the price not listed and they read my full review, like what they read and want to find out more, they will at that time click on the product link and be more likely to buy even if it's a high(ish) price.

Does This Make Sense to Anyone Else?

I'm I off base with this line of thinking, or am I on the right track?

Comment VERY welcome on this one ;)

Have a great day fellow affiliators!
