About strongside

Last updated: September 8, 2026

strongside publishes one thing and does it slowly: long-form video reviews on everyday wellbeing, written for men who are past forty and tired of being sold to in thirty-second bursts.

There is no catalogue here, no basket, no warehouse. We do not make anything and we do not ship anything. What we do is put a subject in front of you, at length, and tell you plainly who paid for it to be there.

01What this site actually is

A publisher, and a small one. Every page is a single review — one video, one subject, no carousel of related offers pulling you sideways. If a page exists because an advertiser paid for it, that is stated at the top of the page and again in the footer, before you have watched a minute of anything.

We are not a party to any purchase you make. When you follow a link from here, you leave our site and deal with the seller directly: their prices, their terms, their guarantee, their customer service.

02Where the money comes from

Two places, and it is worth naming both rather than leaving you to guess:

• Paid placements. An advertiser buys a spot for their presentation on this site. Those pages carry a sponsored label — not in the small print, but where you will see it.
• Affiliate commission. If you click through and buy something, the seller may pay us a share. Your price is identical either way; the commission comes out of the seller's margin, not your pocket.
• Attribution. To get paid we have to prove the click came from here, so links carry tracking parameters and we set cookies for the same purpose. What that collects is spelled out in the Privacy Policy.

03How to read what you find here

Treat every claim about a product as advertising, because that is what it is. Anything said about what something contains, how it works or what it might do for you comes from the advertiser and is their responsibility to stand behind. We do not test these products and we are not in a position to verify what is said about them.

04When we get it wrong

Sometimes a page is inaccurate, a label is missing, or an advertisement oversteps. If you spot any of that, write to us and say which page and what is wrong with it. A correction is cheaper than an argument, and we would rather fix a page than defend one.

05One thing we cannot help with

Orders. If you have already bought something and need to check a shipment, change an address, cancel a subscription or ask for a refund, that conversation belongs with the seller who took your payment. We have no access to their systems, cannot see your order and cannot act on it — writing to us only costs you time.
