My Earning Transparency Report

Alston Antony’s website focus on teaching digital marketing, SaaS and AI for business. I want to use this platform teach as many business owners as possible.

However if you are wondering how I earn money here is my earning transparency report.

How I earn money?

I know that some might be wondering why I write articles and create videos and offer it free since there are so many websites out there that charge money for courses such as this.

Affiliate earning

My reviews, guides, and recommendation are NOT FOR SALE. I create reviews and other content based on our honest, direct experience of using a tool, and I will share that with my readers, including all positives and negatives.

Most of the products, themes, plugins, and courses I mention this blog will contain an affiliate or referral link, which means I will get a small percentage of the sale.

However, please note that it does not cost anything extra or increase the product price.

I also wanted to let you know even though I am an affiliates. I don’t put products first; instead, I put my readers.

My reviews, comparison, top lists are entirely unbiased, and my review of it is based on our own personal experience where I prove it based on screenshots or video of my using it or based on other verified customers who are not affiliated with the product.

Also, please note that I am not dependent on a product for our affiliate commission since the market is full of products, and this is one of my projects, so if I found the product to be bad, I will openly let the readers know about it.

If you have a product, SaaS, or service you wish me to review, you can contact me. If it passes our preliminary quality checks, I will proceed according to my editorial calendar.

Association with SaaS & Reviews

SaaS Founder gave review access

I get messages from founder or deal network where they send me review access either temp or same deal, so this is for the deal/SaaS where I was given review access from SaaS Founder. I will share my personal feedback after trying it out.

Temporary review access for SaaS was given by a fellow community member or a friend

I have very close friends in our group who have temporarily given me their accounts to create reviews. One example is the review I did previously where Tae Yun gave the access for Ubersuggest.

This for lifetime deal share where I haven’t bought this deal personally or didn’t personally like or not an existing customer but sharing the deal in the interest of the community to notify a deal like this is happening. I have joined in as affiliate partner so if someone makes a decision to buy through personal reason or based on our community discussion and want to support me they can do it buying through the link (I will also share non-referral link).

The reason for not purchasing can differ for each deal, so I will try to list the reason for that in the deal post. Still, the common reason I expect to include already have an existing SaaS for this purpose, don’t need this SaaS, didn’t like deal terms/price, or didn’t like the deal for some reason.

Pretty much explanation as 3, but in this case, I am not an affiliate and not earning anything personally like sponsored fee but sharing the deals for the benefit of the community.

I didn’t purchase this deal or SaaS, but an existing user (I will share my personal experience too)

This for a deal share where I haven’t bought this deal but I am already a current customer. Sometimes companies come up in LTD or discounts in a later stage, or this is a necessary tool for me where even though I didn’t buy the current deal, I am already a customer. I already have access to around 200+ SaaS, WP, services, and Apps stuff.

I purchased this new deal or SaaS

This for a lifetime deal/discount share where I bought this particular deal for my personal or agency use. I will not be able to give a full review since I am a new customer, but I will try to give first impressions/demo after buying it.

I tested the SaaS using trial

This for lifetime deals share where I haven’t bought the deal and not given access but used a trial to share my opinion or create a review for it.

Frequently asked questions

How do we choose which products to review?

There are multiple ways we choose a product to review:

  • Products which we already own and use it personally.
  • Products which we use for our clients at our agency.
  • Popular or hottest products on the market.
  • Based on the requests we receive from the community at our FB group.
  • I am a member of ProductHunt, and they list top startups so I might select one from there.

Do you wish us to review your product?

Yes, if it’s relevant to our community.

But always note that “OUR REVIEW WILL BE HONEST” and we will not create a biased review and also we don’t accept any payment to influence our review.

If you have created an amazing product, then you will have nothing to worry about it.

What do you do with bad products during your review?

Since all of my reviews are unbiased, we will be entirely honest during my review process. So our review article is based on our experience and personal testing.

So if the product is good, then the review will be positive.

However, if the product is bad, then our review article will be negative too, and we know it will automatically make me a target.

Still, to maintain my authenticity, we will keep the review genuine as possible.

Conclusion

I hope those tags will give the nature of my association with deal/SaaS, and if you guys can think up another tag or more explanation that will be suitable, do let me know, and I will try to add that too.

I will implement this on deal/reviews share on our group, YouTube video description, mention it in my audio review, and review articles I write.

Thanks, guys, for the continued support!
