1. What affiliate links are
Some future resource pages may include links that identify this website as the referring source. These are commonly called affiliate links.
If you follow an eligible affiliate link and complete a qualifying action, the product company or affiliate network may attribute that action to this website.
2. Possible commission
If you purchase or subscribe through an eligible affiliate link, Manjit Singh may receive a commission or other compensation.
You will usually not pay extra because a link is an affiliate link, but product pricing, taxes, currency, discounts, and purchase terms are controlled by the external provider.
3. Recommendation policy
The decision order is:
- Understand the business problem
- Define the workflow requirement
- Identify possible approaches
- Evaluate relevant tools
- Make an appropriate recommendation
- Check whether an affiliate relationship is available
An affiliate program does not automatically make a product suitable. A high commission does not justify a recommendation.
I recommend a tool because it fits the workflow described, not simply because the company may pay a commission.
4. Recommendation confidence and experience
Where useful, resource content may explain the level of product knowledge behind a recommendation:
No meaningful knowledgeThe product should not be presented as a recommendation.
Documentation researchThe evaluation is based primarily on published product information.
Trial or evaluationThe product has been reviewed through a trial, demonstration, or structured evaluation.
Personally usedThe product has been used directly by Manjit Singh.
Used in a real workflowThe product has been used in an operational or approved client context.
The website should not say “I use” or “in my experience” when only product documentation has been reviewed.
5. Page-level disclosure
An affiliate resource page should include a visible disclosure near the beginning of the page.
Some links on this page are affiliate links. If you purchase through one of these links, I may earn a commission. I recommend tools based on their fit for the workflow described, not simply because an affiliate program is available.
6. Sponsored-link handling
Compensated affiliate links should be marked appropriately for search engines, including use of the supported sponsored-link relationship where applicable.
Links may also include internal tracking identifiers so the website can understand which content, product, and link location generated interest.
7. No guarantee of suitability or results
A recommendation is based on the workflow, audience, product information, evaluation, and experience available at the time.
No guarantee is made that a product will:
- Fit every business or workflow
- Remain available or unchanged
- Keep the same price or features
- Maintain the same affiliate program
- Produce a particular business result
- Meet your legal, security, compliance, or technical requirements
You are responsible for evaluating the product and its terms for your own situation.
8. Simple tool fit and complex workflow needs
Some readers need a simple existing tool. Others have records, users, responsibility, escalation, integrations, or workflow rules that make the need more complex.
An appropriate existing tool may be the most practical answer.
Resource → tool decisionThe problem may need workflow review, integration, or a focused custom system.
Problem → proof → consultingThe objective is to help the reader make the right decision, not to force every visitor toward one product or one consulting service.
9. Product, price, and program changes
Software products, features, prices, terms, commissions, attribution periods, and affiliate programs can change.
Important resource pages should be reviewed when material changes are discovered. A broken affiliate program should not make an otherwise useful article stop being useful.
