Current Revenue Status

Nine Seas Decor is currently pre-revenue. We are building a comprehensive content library and growing our audience. We plan to monetize through ethical, transparent methods that don’t compromise editorial integrity.

Planned Revenue Streams

Affiliate Marketing (Primary – Not Yet Active)

What This Means:

We will include affiliate links to products we genuinely recommend
When you purchase through these links, we earn a small commission
This costs you nothing extra—prices are identical
This helps support our free content creation

Our Affiliate Promise:

We only recommend products we believe are valuable
We research multiple options, not just highest-paying affiliates
We disclose affiliate relationships clearly
We provide honest pros and cons for all recommendations
We compare products fairly across price points

Display Advertising (Planned Future)

What This Means:

We may display advertisements from ad networks (Google AdSense, Mediavine, etc.)
Ads are shown to visitors; we earn revenue from impressions or clicks
This is standard practice for content websites

Our Advertising Standards:

We will maintain reasonable ad-to-content ratios
We will avoid intrusive pop-ups or auto-play videos
We will block inappropriate or offensive advertising
Editorial content will never be influenced by advertisers

What We Will NEVER Do

Sell Editorial Coverage – Positive reviews cannot be purchased
Hide Affiliate Relationships – Full transparency always
Prioritize Revenue Over Readers – Your trust matters most
Misleading Recommendations – Honesty over commissions
Compromise Quality – Standards maintained regardless of revenue
Sell Reader Data – Your privacy is not for sale
