SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
1) Product Endorsement: I write objectively without bias toward any commercial entity. I accept items to test and review after I’ve researched them to ensure they are aligned with my readers and that I might use myself. Product distributors have no control over my review opinion. Only send a product for my review after contacting me first for approval. Do not send unsolicited products.
2) Advertising Display or Links: Advertising display or do-follow ltext inks are accepted from vendors of products and services that I know and trust, and have personally researched. I may accept my advertisers’ products for field testing and may choose to write an objective and critical review, with links to the products as a service to my readers. However, advertisers do not not influence the content of my writing or my positive or negative review. If I agree to do a review, it will be an objective one.
3) Sponsored Paid Guest Posts: I accept submissions for guest posts from products or services I’ve researched and that align with my readers’ interests. I have the right to edit final posts or reject them based on the quality of writing. Post authors must have field experience testing the products being promoted and submit quality original content for excellent readership.
4) YouTube Video Review: I accept only a few requests for sponsored reviews on my YouTube channel with the same endorsement philosophy seen above.
Paid advertisers on SurvivalCommonSense.com have no control over the story content or what I write.
My personal integrity and reputation is all that separates SurvivalCommonSense.com from hordes of unethical internet “survival” sites. My byline guarantees I did my best in research, writing and fact-checking. This site is, now and forever, rated “G.” I am honored when Boy Scouts visit the website to learn more about the outdoors, or when parents refer my site to other parents. You won’t see outrageous headlines or scary articles about doomsday or end times. I don’t write for “click bait”. I write for the average person to learn something about common sense survival techniques.
