Across Micro Biz Mag, we use affiliate links on some of our articles. In short, what that means is that if you click one of those links and then go on to buy something, we may get a commission (but you won’t be charged any more by the seller of whatever it is you bought). We think it’s really important to reiterate, though, that our opinions are our own. We do not accept payment to review anything and we don’t accept payment to place editorial either. We make sure whatever we publish as accurate and our opinions remain independent.
