Transparency and blog ethics

22 April 2023, Blogging

Vicarius.science is a blog entirely written by myself using html, css and javascript. I chose to develop it in this way because I like to have complete control over the product that I'm creating. The source code is stored in a private repository on my GitHub account and the blog is hosted on Cloudfare.

I have kept the repository private so that I can include private tokens, such as the token for Google Analytics, in the source code.

Monetization

The blog will be completely ad-free. Any methods I use to monetize the blog, such as affiliate links or donation links, will be clearly indicated with a link like this.

To ensure transparency, I have chosen to use the color red for these links. This way, you will always be aware if you are clicking on a link that can generate income for me.
