THE PRODUCT HAS TO EARN THE LINK.
- 01It solves the stated problem.No rounding dimensions. No “close enough.”
- 02The price makes sense.We pay for function and design, not retailer adjectives.
- 03The catch gets named.Assembly, weak reviews, weird sellers, missing parts. Say it.
- 04The evidence exists.Specs, ratings, return terms, and availability beat vibes.
The money part
WE MAY EARN A COMMISSION. THE PRODUCT STILL HAS TO DESERVE IT.
