I also sometimes review things I have purchased myself. I often provide \u2018no follow\u2019 links within the content. All views are entirely my own.

I always write a personal introduction and include a footnote that explains who the content is from and what I have received in return. Posts may include \u2018no follow\u2019 links to genuine sites (i.e. not spam). I do not publish content that has appeared elsewhere on the Internet.<\/p>\n<p>I always disclose when posts are anything other than editorial.
