How to write an affiliate Disclosure statement

Writing an affiliate disclosure statement does not have to be cumbersome. You can write it anyhow you wish, but it must state that your content contains affiliate links, explain what affiliate links are and what it does for both you and your audience.

Below are essentials you should watch out for when writing an affiliate disclosure statement.

1. Ensure it is easy to understand.

You should write it in such a way that it is easy to understand. Avoid language that is difficult to understand or lengthy sentences. Write in a language that is simple and familiar to your target audience.

In cases where you have to write long content, break it up into paragraphs and short sentences. Avoid unnecessary grammar mistakes.

2. Content Length

Like I said above, aim to write in short sentences. Rather than elaborate sentences, summarize your point and be precise about it.

The focus of your disclosure should be what affiliate marketing is and what it is not. Also do not forget to state your philosophy and why you use links to monetize your content.

3. Avoid Assumptions

Do not assume that your audience already know why you use links or they should know what affiliate marketing is. Be explicit about the fact that you earn a commission via your affiliate links.
