Whether you run a personal blog or a multi-author publication, the right disclaimers protect your content, your income, and your reputation. Generate FTC-compliant blog disclaimers covering affiliate links, professional advice, sponsored posts, and more — in under two minutes.
Different blog content requires different legal protections. Here are the six you should never publish without.
States content is for informational purposes only. Protects against claims of inaccuracy, errors, or omissions in your blog posts.
Critical if you write about health, legal, or financial topics. States your content is not professional advice and readers should consult experts.
Protects you from liability for third-party content you link to. States you don't endorse or control external websites.
FTC-required disclosure for blogs with affiliate links. Must be 'clear and conspicuous' near affiliate content.
Separates your personal opinions from your employer's views. Essential for employee blogs or guest contributors.
Required for paid posts, gifted products, or any form of compensation. FTC requires clear disclosure.
Your blog topic determines which disclaimers you legally need. A travel blogger faces different liability than a finance blogger — and the FTC treats each niche differently.

A great disclaimer is useless if nobody sees it. Here are the four key placements every blog should use.
Add a persistent disclaimer link in your site footer so it appears on every page. This is the baseline every blog needs.
Place a brief disclaimer at the start of posts covering professional topics like health, finance, or legal. Readers see it before acting on your advice.
FTC requires disclosure before or immediately adjacent to affiliate links — not buried at the bottom. Make it impossible to miss.
Create a standalone /disclaimer page linked from your navigation. This houses your full legal disclaimer and serves as the canonical reference.
