Why the Well
How this site makes money
The diagnosis is free. If you later buy a test kit or a system we pointed at, we may get a cut. That is the whole model.
What we will not do
- Tell you to buy a $2,000 bundle because an ad paid us more.
- Call a softener a sulfur filter, or a sulfur filter a pump fix.
- Hide that a link is an affiliate link.
What a sale looks like
You land here from a search like “well water smells like rotten eggs.” You do the two-faucet test. If it is the heater anode, you do not need us. If it is the well, you test the water. Then, if a carbon tank or an iron filter is actually the tool, we link to a real product or a lab kit. Amazon, a treatment brand, or a test lab pays a commission if you buy.
That is boring on purpose. High-ticket, infrequent, searched every day in the country. A few honest sales a month is a business. A hundred “best of” roundups is not this site.
Amazon links on this site use Associates ID whythewell-20. If you buy through one, Amazon pays a commission. The diagnosis does not change if you buy elsewhere.
