You might wonder how we can maintain this site. We created this page to answer the questions: “How is dogssportsgear.com funded?” and “What does this mean for me as a website visitor?”.

1. How Is DogsSportsGear Funded?

We have always believed in being honest and transparent with our audience. In our opinion, that’s the only way to build a community.

Running a website like DogsSportsGear.com that helps users also comes with a lot of responsibility and takes a lot of time and effort. Both on the server infrastructure part as well as on the content creation part.

Our team creates and maintains free written WordPress blogs and review pages.

So yes, we have to make money otherwise we would have to shut the site down. Below are two primary sources that fund DogsSportsGear.com.

Refferal Fees

In the time that we started the website, we were able to create several blogs and review pages for you as a visitor. In these blogs or pages you may have seen products or services from other websites pass by. We earn referral fees when you buy products or services from companies that we recommend. We only recommend products and services that we believe will add value to our readers. we have either tested them ourselves or have done some good research about them. All opinions are our own, and we do not accept payments for positive reviews.

The biggest brands on the internet offer affiliate programs such as Amazon, eBay, Google, etc. Many of your favorite sites use affiliate marketing to pay the bills.

The only difference is that not everyone tell their users how they make money. Sometimes you will see banner ads and other times, you will see a special link unique to each website that track referrals.

When you click on these link, you are tagged with a special cookie to track the referral. If you end up buying the product, then they pay us a referral fee. The referral fees vary for each product. For a dog harness that you may buy at Amazon, we might earn $1. For a dog camera, we might earn $10.

This monetization method is called affiliate marketing. 

Question #1 – Will it Cost Me More Money?

No, absolutely not. 

Amazon gives us a commission on the products you buy, but as a customer you don’t pay more than you would without the link.

Question #2 – Do You See My Personal Details?

Nope. We don’t see any personal information i.e name, email, address, credit card, etc. 

The only thing we see is that an anonymous user made a purchase on date/time and which product they bought.
