Dear, I ♥ Chess ✓Mate Readers,
I’m RL Williams, the founder of ilovechess.siterubix.com (temporary site address), and I’d like to share a personal story about my journey into the world of affiliate marketing and the values that drive my small business here at I ♥ Chess ✓Mate (“ILCCM,” “I Love Chess CheckMate,” “I,” or “me,”).
My Journey into Affiliate Marketing
I began my journey into affiliate marketing by searching for a way to supplement my income. I had no clue what I was going to do nor how to do it.
I searched everywhere for any means to earn some extra money from home due to my wife’s health getting worse from Alzheimer’s.
I explored envelope stuffing and a few other options only to discover that there was no way to earn much money if any at all from these “opportunities”.
I looked into ways to make money online only to discover that there were more scams than real opportunities at the time. I found some programs that seemed legitimate, but they were too expensive for me.
I finally found an online opportunity that truly teaches you what you need to know to actually build an online business… And it doesn’t break the bank! You can learn from actual internet marketers how to become an affiliate marketer and much more.
This is exactly how I learned to create my own online business. When I began my journey, my extent of being online was Facebook, emails, and browsing the internet. None of which I knew all that much about.
And look at me now! I have successful affiliate marketing websites online that I created through my own efforts. For me, this is a MAJOR accomplishment. Now, down to business.
My Commitment to Quality and Integrity
I have somewhat of a passion for chess. I have had since learning as a child. I know that chess can be quite rewarding and sometimes frustrating. My mission is to provide you with honest information about the game and share some of my own insights plus gifs and images of games I’ve played online.
I only promote stuff that I would love to have myself or would gift to my friends and family. Rest assured that every product featured on my site is of the highest quality I can find online. I research and analyze each product’s quality and long-term value personally.
My recommendations are based on the genuine belief that these products will bring you years of enjoyment and will hold their value.
How Affiliate Marketing Works
Transparency and trust are the cornerstones of ILCCM. I want you to know that I engage in affiliate marketing and I’m compensated when you use my affiliate links and make a purchase from merchants with whom I have an affiliate agreement.
What Is an Affiliate Link?
An affiliate link is a specific URL (website address) that contains the affiliate marketer’s unique ID. In affiliate marketing, this ID is used to track the affiliate’s efforts in promoting products or services and to credit them with a commission for sales generated through their promotional activities.
How Does This Affect You?
When you click on an affiliate link on ILCCM and make a purchase, I’m compensated by my affiliate association with the respective merchant. This commission does not affect the price you pay for the product or service. In fact, you may even be able to save money using my links and/or promotional codes if any are available.
Why Do I Use Affiliate Links?
The use of affiliate links allows me to continue providing valuable content for you. It helps support the maintenance of this website and the cost of doing business.

My Promise to You
I promise to always prioritize your best interests. I will never promote a product solely for the sake of earning a commission. Instead, I carefully select products that align with my own values of commitment to quality and long-term value.
Your trust means the world to me. If you ever have questions or concerns about my affiliate partnerships, the products I recommend, or starting your own affiliate marketing journey, please reach out to me. I’ll be happy to provide you with the support and information you need.
