I agree with you Michael as long as there is a disclosure I don’t see anything wrong with it. I actually find some of the reviews like on John Chows site very helpful. Some of the sites of products that he reviews are some that I never seen before or something that I been looking for but just couldn’t find it. My suggestion to is do what you feel comfortable with and disregard what everyone else thinks about what you are doing.

I’m behind you Michael. I’ve taken some criticism on my sponsored posts as well. I still see some people complaining about Adsense ads. Sponsored posting is just a new form of advertising. The only question is whether it will be the new Adsense or the new “punch the monkey”. Only time will tell.

John is right though, it is by far the most profitable program out there for the small blog. 90% of my blog’s income comes from them.
