Elevator: CaliforniaWheeler, Dhaka, Bangladesh

Our Affiliate Partnerships

CaliforniaWheeler is a participant in affiliate marketing programs designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to merchant websites.

We currently participate in:

  • Amazon Associates Program: As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. When you click on product links to Amazon and make a purchase, we receive a small commission at no additional cost to you.
  • Other Affiliate Programs: We may participate in additional affiliate programs from automotive manufacturers, retailers, and service providers. These relationships will be disclosed transparently.

How Affiliate Links Work

When you click an affiliate link on our site and make a purchase, the merchant pays us a commission. This commission comes from their marketing budget—not from your pocket. You pay the exact same price whether you use our link or go directly to the merchant.

These commissions help us:

  • Continue creating free, high-quality automotive content
  • Research and test products thoroughly before recommending them
  • Maintain and improve our website
  • Cover operational costs and invest in better resources for our readers

Important: Our affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content. We maintain complete editorial independence and only recommend products we genuinely believe will benefit our readers based on thorough research and evaluation.

Sponsored Content & Product Reviews

Sponsored Content: Yes, we accept sponsored content and paid partnerships. Any sponsored content will be clearly labeled as “Sponsored,” “Paid Partnership,” or “Advertisement” at the beginning of the article.

Product Reviews: Yes, we accept free products for review purposes. When we receive products at no cost, we disclose this fact in the article. Receiving a free product does not guarantee a positive review, we maintain our honest, unbiased evaluation standards regardless of how we acquired the product.

Our Editorial Standards

We take our recommendations seriously. Here’s what guides our content:

  1. Research-Based: All product recommendations are backed by thorough research, including manufacturer specifications, safety ratings, user reviews, and industry testing data.
  2. Honest Assessment: We provide balanced reviews including both pros and cons. If a product has limitations, we tell you.
  3. User-Focused: We recommend products based on what serves our readers best, not what pays the highest commission.
  4. Regular Updates: We review and update our content regularly to ensure recommendations remain current and accurate.
  5. Transparent Disclaimers: We clearly identify affiliate links and sponsored content throughout our site.
