Welcome to Alysson Fergison’s personal website & blog, also known as “Alysson Fergison – A writer, unbound…”. I can be reached by e-mail at the following e-mail address: alysson@alyssonfergison.com.
I don’t like ads. In fact, I hate them. But making a living as a writer isn’t easy. Bills don’t pay themselves and a girl’s gotta eat. So here’s the deal: you’ll see some ads here & there. With very few exceptions, every ad you see will be from an affiliate program I am a part of and for a product that I have specifically selected to advertise on my website (i.e. the ads are not auto-generated).
I will never inexplicably stick them in the middle of a story or use ads that cover any part of the page. You will only see ads in the sidebar and if I’m writing about a relevant topic — like website design, for example — and mention something about registering a domain or hosting website, I’ll likely include an affiliate link to a domain registrar or host. If you click on those ads and buy something, I make a few bucks, but I only feature ads for products & services that I have used personally and/or think you can benefit from in some way. I am also an Amazon Associate, so I earn a small commission from qualifying purchases when you click through to Amazon’s product listings via a link on my site.
Since this website contains advertisements from a variety of sources, you should be aware of some things. Analytics and advertising tracking services may collect aggregate information on what pages you access or visit, as well as any information you provide voluntarily, through means such as filling out surveys or completing site registration. Any information I collect is used for my own personal reviews to improve the usability and functionality of my website. I do not store that information locally or in the cloud.
