CPOThemes is a large, extensive and growing WordPress resource site and blog. Since consuming our content is 100% free, people often wonder how we keep our blog profitable.
This page is here to serve as a legal disclaimer, FTC affiliate disclosure and information for those of you interested.
Why CPOThemes is free?
Freelancers and new businesses in WordPress often don’t have the financial means to invest in expensive resources and training to help them get up to speed. Yet without the information and tools available to them, they’re unable to prosper.
Our goal is to create fun and informative content for people in WordPress, freelancers, and agencies to help them make the best possible decisions.
How does CPOThemes stay profitable?
As some of you may already know, running a high-traffic website can be extremely expensive – especially when on a powerful & premium managed WordPress host like Kinsta.
To that end, there are two main ways in which we make money – our own products, and affiliate commissions.
Our Products
Over the past few years, we’ve developed a number of premium WordPress plugins that help take your website to the next level. Obviously, whenever anyone purchases one of our premium plugins, it helps us continue to produce the content we all know and love.
If you love & use our products, thank you! ❤️
Affiliate Commissions
We also earn affiliate commissions whenever you buy a product or service that we recommend on our blog. That being said, we only recommend products and services that we truly believe in – and we really mean this when we say it. Regardless of how much more profitable a certain affiliate program is, when we mention products on our blog, we do so in complete transparency and honesty.
This method of monetization is often referred to as affiliate marketing.
A great example of this is when we mentioned the WordPress host that we use to host https://cpothemes.com above. If you click that link and head to Kinsta’s website and decide to purchase their amazing WordPress hosting, we earn an affiliate commission. It’s important to note, we don’t just claim to use services – we’re always transparent about our experiences with them and the extent to which we’ve used them.
We do not accept payments for positive reviews and the contents of our posts and pages reflect those of their respective authors – not necessarily those of CPOThemes.
