Transparency about our affiliate partnerships.
Last updated: September 05, 2025
TopYouTube.com participates in various affiliate marketing programs, which means we may earn commissions on qualifying purchases made through links on our site. This disclosure is in compliance with FTC guidelines to ensure transparency and build trust with our users.
Affiliate links may appear in video descriptions, recommendations, or ad zones. When you click on these links and make a purchase, we receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. These commissions help support the maintenance, development, and content creation for TopYouTube.com, allowing us to keep the site free and updated.
We only promote products or services that we believe will add value to our users, such as creator gear (e.g., microphones, cameras), software for video editing, or related YouTube tools like analytics apps. Our recommendations are based on research and user needs, not solely on commission potential.
Examples of our affiliate partners include Amazon Associates, Google AdSense, Commission Junction, and specific YouTube-related programs. Participation in these programs does not influence our video rankings or content recommendations, which are based solely on YouTube data and algorithms.
How it works: When you click an affiliate link, a cookie is placed on your device to track the referral. If you complete a purchase within the cookie's validity period (usually 24 hours to 30 days), we earn a commission. This process is standard across most affiliate programs.
Disclaimer: While we strive for accuracy, product prices, availability, and terms are subject to change. We are not responsible for any issues arising from purchases made through affiliate links. Always verify details on the merchant's site before buying.
