total newbie here and honest question:

why would I recommend a product that I haven't used? won't it be cheating my viewership?

Hey, thank you for asking. I believe it's not ethical to recommend a product one hasn't used before. However, my aim is to assist creators or anyone in finding products they can use and relate to. If they find them good enough, they can recommend them to their audience.

>If they find them good enough

This is very important and missing in your product workflow I think .. to get these products (buy/sample?) before affiliation.

If they do not want to provide recommendations, they can opt for placing ads in content similar to AdSense in a blog or video.

I hope you know the difference between recommendations and ad placements.
