We don't want to be ignorant of the law. So I went digging for something that could help me better understand these requirements. Here is a brochure provided by the FTC that walks you through the elements of the law. In the Appendix it includes some examples of disclosures that do not meet the requirements and ways to correct the violation.
Here is the brochure for your review:

And here are a couple snippets of the examples they have highlighted in this booklet.

My link is in my sidebar, but on the bottom. Wonder if I need to move it to the top, or at least closer to the top.

Hey Chris,
I think that in the side-bar is a good idea because it will go along with the items you may be recommending to folks. The key is to make sure it is 'clear and conspicuous'. My gut is saying I'd rather it be closer to the top than buried if you will in the flow of your side-bar widgets.
Does this help?

That sounds like a good place. I expect this will cover you well and keep the boogie man away. "-)

Add an Affiliate Disclosure Loes created this tutorial that has some language that can be a cut and paste. I recommend reading it with an eye to make sure it fits what you are doing on your site.
Hope this helps.

Thank you, Brian, for taking a look. Guess I should have found a catchy title for this cause it hasn't captured much interest. I wrote the training because I felt it would be a good resource for folks who are trying so hard but may not have gotten it right.
Ah well, lesson learned.
I appreciate your feedback!
