AFFILIATE-READY, NOT AFFILIATE-FIRST

Software recommendations can become a revenue stream without becoming an ad wall.

ADE can recommend software and services that genuinely help our audience. When a recommendation uses an affiliate link, the relationship should be disclosed clearly and the recommendation should remain useful even when no commission exists.
