I don't think it's possible to implement an affiliate program in a completely ethical way. Even if you try to make your reviews fair and honest you will still have a subconscious bias to give every product as high score as possible, because high scores generate affiliate purchases.

This guy looks honest. He was even featured on Indie Hackers I think.

I can tell you from experience that web hosting affiliates like this are absolutely the most "faked" of any industry out there. Affiliate payments from webhosts can equal 100x what a referral pays monthly, and the payouts are an ever increasing "race to the top" as hosts attempt to pump their customer numbers up
