Overview
This page explains, in plain terms, when find-extensions.com earns money from the links on this site, and how that never affects what we recommend.
How affiliate links work
Some "Add to Chrome" links and other outbound links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and then install or subscribe to something, we may earn a small commission from the extension's developer or a related program.
These links go through a redirect at /go/{extension}/ before landing on the extension's official page. The redirect is what allows any commission to be tracked.
What this means for you
Using an affiliate link never costs you anything extra. The price you pay — if there's a price at all — is exactly the same whether you click our link or go directly to the developer's own page.
Editorial independence
Whether a link is an affiliate link has no bearing on how we rank, review, or write about an extension. Our verdicts, pros and cons, and "best for" recommendations are based on our own research, not on which links pay us.
No pay-to-rank
An extension can't buy a better verdict or a higher spot in our rankings.
Sponsored placements
Separately from affiliate links, we may sometimes accept payment to feature an extension in a specific placement, such as a highlighted spot on a category page. Any placement like this is always labelled "Sponsored" directly on the page.
A sponsored label never means we recommend an extension we wouldn't otherwise recommend — it just means that particular slot was paid for.
How to spot these links
We aim to make affiliate and sponsored content easy to identify. Look for:
- The word "Sponsored" next to a paid placement
- This affiliate disclosure page, linked from the site footer
- Our terms of use, which also reference affiliate and sponsored content
Why we disclose this
We disclose this relationship clearly and in advance, in line with FTC-style guidance on affiliate marketing disclosures, because we think you deserve to know how a site makes money before you trust what it tells you.
