Why would someone searching in Google for some possibly unusual product want to go through a possibly-misinformative/scammy Wealthy Affiliate siterubix website (and possibly-unreliable hotlink therein) instead of going directly to the manufacturer's website?
Would not it be more cost effective for the manufacturer to receive payment for a product directly from a customer wanting the product and themselves ship that product to the customer, rather than having a middleman like non-payment-processing/non-shipping siterubix or even Amazon who not only receives payment for a manufactured product but also ships that product to customers?
Why would not the manufacturer's website involving that product be listed on the top of the Google search listing instead of siterubix or even Amazon be listed on the top of the Google search listing for that product?
It seems that Amazon must have a myriad of large warehouses containing every most single product in the world to immediately ship to customers, or at least can and does promptly acquire some product from some manufacturer not currently in their warehouses . . . sort of like Cub Foods stores already contain tons of products from many different manufacturers ready for customers, which Cub Foods themselves do not manufacture.
Keep in mind that siterubix website creators and maintainers do not themselves have to stock products but merely have hotlinks customers can click into to the manufacturers who manufacture products, plus siterubix website creators and maintainers do not themselves have to ship any manufactured products to customers.
Unlike Amazon.
Could the referral websites of Wealthy Affiliate be also considered middlemen who take a cut of a siterubix-hotlinked manufacturer's product sales, even though they, unlike Amazon, neither accept nor process customer's payments for product nor themselves ship those products?
Do manufacturers think it profitable to thus divert some of their potential profits on the sale of their manufactured products, as administrative costs, involving middlemen like siterubix and especially Amazon?
A friend of mine, health-products-marketer Dale Stone, inferred that manufacturers wholesale their products to Amazon because Amazon negotiates lower prices with the manufacturers involving the manufacturer's products which lower prices Amazon charges customers, and manufacturers figure that the loss of some profit because of lack of themselves selling and shipping their product at retail price (with possible time-consuming and/or expensive accompanying customer-transaction complications) is made up for by bulk quantity sales which reputationally-respected Amazon does selling the manufacturer's manufactured product to a greater number of customers which, again, reliable and efficient middleman Amazon does well.
Concerning large or expensive-item purchases, as for example a dwelling, commercial building, new or even used car, it is inevitable that the transaction lamentably most often requires a credit check, being that a bank-related loan is usually involved.
And when credit credentials or scores are involved, there are all sorts of complications and errors deliberately or accidentally embedded within reports of RICO scores accumulated from and within the bowels of Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion credit reporting agencies requiring utilization of pricey and spendy paralegals related to lawyers researching and attempting to correct any negatives lowering credit scores. Even attorney inquiries into credit scores lower credit rating unless payment is made to insure such does not occur. Insane.
Fortunate is the individual who makes a large-item purchase transaction without any bank loan or credit score investigation whatsoever, also avoiding dangerous scrutiny of government agencies such as the IRS.
But unless one pays the total amount in full right off for a large-ticket item, the seller usually has no assurance that increment payments for that item will actually be done, and on time. Greed-based application of interest on loans is imposed, whatever the percentage, disregarding Scriptural imperatives:
Exodus 22:25 If you lend money to any of my people with you who is poor, you shall not be to him a creditor, and you shall not exact interest (sometimes called: "usury") from him.
Leviticus 25:36 Take no interest from him or increase, but fear your God, that your brother may live beside you.
Leviticus 25:37 You shall not lend him your money at interest, nor give him your food for profit.
[ NOTE: No wonder no-interest-imposing Jews as a God-blessed minority have financially survived as a nation, and thrived! ]
Deuteronomy 23:19 You shall not lend upon interest to your brother, interest on money, interest on victuals, interest on anything that is lent for interest.
Deuteronomy 23:20 To a foreigner you may lend upon interest, but to your brother you shall not lend upon interest, that the LORD your God may bless you in all that you undertake in the land which you are entering to take possession of.
Imposing interest on loans usually involves banks, as even stated in the New Testament of the Holy Bible:
Matthew 25:26 But his master answered him: "You wicked and slothful servant! You knew that I reap where I have not planted, and gather where I have not plowed?
Matthew 25:27 Then you ought to have invested my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received what was my own with interest.
Luke 19:20 Then another came, saying: "Lord, here is your pound, which I kept laid away in a napkin,
21 because I was afraid of you, because you are a severe man; you take up what you did not lay down, and reap what you did not plant."
22 He said to him: "I will condemn you out of your own mouth, you wicked servant! You knew that I was a severe man, taking up what I did not lay down and reaping what I did not plant?
23 Why then did you not put my money into the bank, and at my coming I should have collected it with interest?"
24 And He said to those who stood by: "Take the pound from him, and give it to him who has the ten pounds."
25 And they said to Him: "Lord, [but already] he has ten pounds!"
26 "I tell you, that to every one who has will more be given, but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.
27 But as for these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them before me."
Hence, the bank loans dependent upon satisfactory credit score will also the legal entanglements are typical.
And there is a point in discouraging binding both supplier of and receiver of bank-related loans such as medical and student and car loans and especially mortgages, necessarily involving questionable credit scores, from a Biblical point of view concordant with the archaic but yet-admirable axiom: "If you don't have the money to pay for it, do not buy it:
Proverbs 22:7 The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is the slave of the lender.
and:
Romans 13:8 Owe no one anything, except to love one another, because whoever loves his neighbor has fulfilled the Law.
and:
First Thessalonians 4:11 . . . aspire to live quietly, to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we charged you,
First Thessalonians 4:12 so that you may command the respect of outsiders, and be dependent on nobody.
Disregarding the above Scripture is one cause why house prices and new auto prices are riduculously too high (they should be a tenth of what they now are, across the board), because loans obviously cause inflation, inflation causes unresolvable debt from too much expense and not enough income, resulting in all sorts of sinful anti-social attitudes, hostilities, and destructive harm against all involved.
Greed for more, or "having a champagne appetite on a beer budget" without being able to responsibly afford it, violates the following mandates of the Lord Jesus and those who belong to Him:
Luke 3:14 Soldiers also asked him: "And we, what shall we do?" And he said to them: "Rob no one by violence or by false accusation, and be content with your wages."
[ NOTE: So much for not only not raising the Minimum Wage, but also not Raising the Price on Necessities! ]
Philippians 4:11 Not that I complain of want, because I have learned, in whatever state I am, to be content.
Philippians 4:12 I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound; in any and all circumstances I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and want.
First Timothy 6:6 There is great gain in godliness with contentment,
7 because we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world;
8 but if we have food and clothing, with these we shall be content.
9 But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and hurtful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction.
10 For the love of money is the root of all evils; it is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced their hearts with many pangs.
Hebrews 13:4 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be non-defiled, because God will judge fornicators and adulterous.
Hebrews 13:5 Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, because He has said: "I will never fail you nor desert you."
