Affiliate Disclosure
This page explains, in plain language, how DegreePlus Daily makes money and how that affects what you read.
What an affiliate link is
An affiliate link is a link to a product, course, or certification provider that, if you click it and make a purchase, pays DegreePlus Daily a small commission. The commission is paid by the company, not added to your price. Your cost is exactly the same whether you click an affiliate link or navigate directly to the company’s website.
When we use affiliate links
DegreePlus Daily may include affiliate links to:
- Online learning platforms (such as Coursera, Udemy, edX)
- Certification providers
- Career-related tools and software
- Books and resources we recommend
How you’ll know
Articles that contain affiliate links display a clear disclosure at the top of the article, before any product discussion. Individual affiliate links within articles are not separately marked, but the article-level disclosure applies to all commercial links in that article.
Our editorial commitment
- We do not accept payment to write positive reviews.
- We do not change editorial conclusions because of affiliate relationships.
- We recommend products, courses, and certifications based on research and merit, not commission rates.
- If we believe a product is not worth the money, we say so, even if we have an affiliate relationship with the seller.
- If a higher-commission product is worse than a lower-commission alternative, we recommend the better product.
Sponsorships
If DegreePlus Daily ever accepts sponsored content — an article paid for by a company — that article will be labelled clearly as “Sponsored” at the top. Sponsored content is held to the same factual standards as editorial content, but readers should know the commercial relationship exists.
