  Hi,

  I’ve read your adveritising guidelines and have been wondering about your definition of sponsored posts.

  It is very common that bloggers receive products and goods for reviewing them. Is this considered a “sponsored” post? Because I would think it is kinda sponsored.

  Thanks for your answer.
  Fabian

  It depends if you include any affiliate links (which are not allowed) to your post or not. Note that there are no restrictions if you setup a self-hosted WordPress.org blog instead of a WordPress.com blog, but there are some added responsibilities. We have hosting recommendations at the following link if you are interested.
