About

What we do

Vendor Runbook writes comparisons and reviews for readers who want a clear answer with the sources in view, without reading ten pages to find it.

Our readers are the people who own the product: supplement, info-product and ecommerce vendors who list an offer on an affiliate network and need media buyers to promote it. Almost everything else written about affiliate networks is for the affiliate. We cover the other side of the order form: approval, fees per sale, payouts, refunds and chargebacks, the funnel pages a vendor needs, and the tools to run them.

Pages are signed by the site. Who writes here, and what they cover, is on the masthead.

How we work

We read each network's and tool's own seller pages, fee schedules and help-center articles, then what long-term vendors report in public threads and review sites, and we take prices only from the vendor's own site.

Every page says where its information comes from and links to it, so you can check it yourself. The full rules are in our editorial policy.

What you will not find here

Invented experts, reviews written to order, or advice that should come from a doctor, a lawyer or an accountant. When a subject needs a professional, we say so and point to one.

How we are funded

We may earn a commission when you buy through links on this page. It never affects our rankings. The details are on how we make money.
