5. ©2013 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved Bloggers  As of December 2009, the FTC requires bloggers who get freebies or payments for online content to disclose gifts and compensation to readers. Browsing a bunch of legal code is not our idea of a good time, but if companies send you free products (and really, who doesn’t like free stuff?), you should have a basic disclosure policy for your site.FTC  1. A list of the ways you earn compensation–usually in the form of gifts and money–from your site. This could include advertising, product reviews, affiliate programs, etc.  2. Whether or not your content is influenced by advertisers. If you post about certain topics, shops, or products solely because you’re being compensated to do so, that should be clearly stated. It is considered ethical to mark those posts as “Sponsored” or “Paid content.”  3. If and how your opinion–not your content, but the way you feel about it–is influenced by paid advertisers or free gifts. If an advertiser is telling you what to say or insisting you use certain keywords in an editorial post, your “opinion” is being influenced. This is strongly discouraged because it’s often the result of a blogger being taken advantage of by a company. It’s best to say no to these types of offers!  4. Whether any affiliations–your employer, organizations you’re a part of, financial interests, family ties–influence your content and opinions. Many bloggers list the organizations and brands that might present a potential conflict of interest in the disclosure policy.
