Welcome to GeekyBeginner.com (“GeekyBeginner,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
GeekyBeginner is an independent technology and beginner-focused website covering topics such as web hosting, VPNs, software, online tools, website development, technology guides, deals, and related products and services.
This Affiliate Disclosure explains how affiliate relationships may work on our Website.
1. We May Earn Commissions
Some of the links published on GeekyBeginner may be affiliate links.
If you click an affiliate link and subsequently purchase a product, subscribe to a service, or complete another qualifying action, we may receive a commission or other compensation from the company providing that product or service.
You generally do not pay an additional fee because you used our affiliate link.
In some cases, using our link may provide you with a discount, promotional offer, or other benefit offered by the third-party provider.
2. Types of Products and Services We May Promote
GeekyBeginner may participate in affiliate programs involving products and services such as:
- Web hosting;
- WordPress hosting;
- Domain registration;
- VPN services;
- Cybersecurity tools;
- Website builders;
- Software;
- AI tools;
- Online productivity tools;
- Website plugins;
- Themes and templates;
- Digital services;
- Online courses;
- Technology products;
- Business tools;
- Marketing tools;
- Online subscriptions;
- Deals and promotional offers; and
- Other products or services relevant to our readers.
The companies and affiliate programs we work with may change over time.
3. How Affiliate Links Work
Affiliate links typically contain a tracking identifier.
When you click such a link, the relevant affiliate network or company may use cookies or similar technologies to determine that you were referred from GeekyBeginner.
If you subsequently complete a qualifying action, the company may attribute that action to GeekyBeginner and pay us a commission.
The exact tracking period and qualification requirements vary by affiliate program.
4. Affiliate Compensation Does Not Guarantee a Recommendation
The existence of an affiliate relationship does not automatically mean that a product or service is suitable for every reader.
We aim to provide useful information, comparisons, tutorials, and reviews to help readers make their own decisions.
However, products, prices, features, availability, performance, policies, and promotional offers can change.
We encourage you to review the provider’s official website, pricing, terms, refund policy, and other relevant information before making a purchase.
5. Our Recommendations
GeekyBeginner may recommend products or services that we believe are relevant to the subject being discussed.
Our content may include:
- Reviews;
- Comparisons;
- Tutorials;
- Product roundups;
- “Best” lists;
- Deals;
- Discount information;
- Alternatives;
- Buying guides; and
- Other recommendation-based content.
Affiliate compensation may be one factor in our commercial relationship with a provider, but it does not change the fact that readers should independently evaluate whether a product or service meets their needs.
6. We Do Not Control Third-Party Products
When you purchase a product or service through an affiliate link on GeekyBeginner, the transaction is generally completed with the third-party provider.
GeekyBeginner does not normally control:
- Product pricing;
- Billing;
- Subscription terms;
- Refunds;
- Cancellations;
- Customer support;
- Service availability;
- Product functionality;
- Provider policies; or
- The quality of the third-party service.
Any dispute regarding a purchase should generally be addressed with the relevant provider.
7. Prices and Offers
Prices, discounts, coupons, promotional codes, and other offers displayed on GeekyBeginner may change without notice.
A deal or promotional code may:
- Expire;
- Be limited to certain customers;
- Be restricted by location;
- Apply only to new customers;
- Have additional conditions; or
- Be withdrawn by the provider.
GeekyBeginner does not guarantee that a particular offer will remain available or that the price shown in an article will match the price available when you visit the provider.
Always verify the final price and applicable terms before purchasing.
8. Affiliate Links Do Not Increase Your Price
In most cases, clicking an affiliate link does not increase the price you pay.
The commission is generally paid by the participating company or affiliate network rather than being added to your purchase price.
However, pricing and promotions are controlled by the third-party provider, so you should always confirm the final price before completing a transaction.
9. Third-Party Affiliate Networks
GeekyBeginner may participate in affiliate programs operated directly by companies or through affiliate networks.
Affiliate networks may provide tracking, reporting, payment processing, and referral attribution services.
The use of affiliate tracking technologies may involve cookies or similar technologies.
For additional information, please review our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.
10. Amazon Associates and Other Programs
If GeekyBeginner participates in the Amazon Associates Program or another retailer’s affiliate program, applicable program-specific disclosures and requirements may also apply.
Participation in a particular affiliate program may change over time.
Where required, we will provide the appropriate disclosure for that program.
11. Advertising and Affiliate Content
GeekyBeginner may earn revenue from multiple sources, including:
- Affiliate commissions;
- Display advertising;
- Sponsored opportunities;
- Partnerships;
- Referral programs; and
- Other legitimate website monetization methods.
Affiliate content and advertising help support the operation and development of GeekyBeginner.
12. Editorial Independence
We aim to make our content useful to beginners and technology users.
An affiliate relationship does not mean that a company controls our Website or has the right to dictate what we publish.
Companies participating in affiliate programs do not automatically receive editorial control over our content.
However, our reviews and recommendations may contain opinions, assessments, or information that can change as products and services evolve.
13. Your Decision
Before purchasing any product or service recommended on GeekyBeginner, you should consider your own requirements and review information directly from the provider.
In particular, check:
- Current pricing;
- Renewal pricing;
- Features;
- Restrictions;
- Refund policies;
- Cancellation requirements;
- Contract or subscription terms;
- Availability in your country; and
- Any other conditions that may apply.
GeekyBeginner provides information to help you research options, but the final purchasing decision is yours.
14. No Guarantee of Results
We do not guarantee that any product, service, software, hosting provider, VPN, tool, or other recommendation will produce a particular result.
Technology products can perform differently depending on:
- User requirements;
- Configuration;
- Location;
- Internet connection;
- Device;
- Software environment;
- Provider infrastructure; and
- Other factors.
Your experience may therefore differ from information presented on GeekyBeginner.
15. Changes to Our Affiliate Relationships
Affiliate relationships may change at any time.
We may:
- Join new affiliate programs;
- End existing affiliate relationships;
- Change affiliate providers;
- Add new products;
- Remove products; or
