Because of both the time and energy I put into the blog, as well as its associated costs (hosting, tech support, and more), I accept advertising and use affiliate links. So when you click on a link to Amazon or I post a review of a product, you are supporting this blog.
I value you as readers and only post content that I can personally recommend or provides you with a benefit. The views expressed on Maneuvering the Middle are solely mine and not influenced by a dollar amount.
Maneuvering the Middle is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.
