Advertising on this site

Why am I seeing adverts on this website?

This is a way that the website can earn money, through advertising, by providing information and links to products and services sold online from photography retailers.

This website is affiliated with: Wex Photographic (via AWIN) and Essential Photo (via Shopify Collabs)

The ads carried will be from companies that I have used over many years and continue to do so. They will include general offers from these photographic suppliers, 

It's our policy to make these ads and links relevant, and useful to visitors, and appropriate to the site subject and content.   The ads are restricted to their own dedicated page on this site.  You can browse the rest of the site ad free.


How does it work?

When a user clicks on an ad, or a link, on the site the advertiser tracks a code. This code (known as a cookie) identifies that this site has referred a user to them.
If you, the user, purchases a product from them we may earn a small commission on that purchase.  The reason for this is that though this sites primary purpose is to raise money for charitable causes through donations (no donations are handled through this site), running this site does incur some cost.  Showing ads is a way of offsetting that expense.

The product costs, to you do not change, in fact, we ,may have affiliate deals from retailers that could save the you money.

These links may take the form of banners, text links and image links which will appear at the top and bottom of pages only within the Articles sections.  You can browse the remainder of the site ad free.

How do I know these are affiliate links?

To avoid any doubt as to whether or not the ads are part of the editorial content affiliate links are separated from the other content by being on their own dedicated page called "Affiliate Links".

​We always make our best efforts to link and promote quality products and services from major brands, these are very often products we use ourselves.
