Explanation
I found this whilst reading parts of this site. Is there anyone who speaks english who can explain it to me please? It is beyond me !!
Two types of contacts are listed. The first (which all have a * within the main body of the articles) help MoneySavingExpert.com stay ad-free and free to use, as they’re ‘affiliated links’ which invisibly take you usually via commercial price comparison services like Moneysupermarket, Uswitch or Find, which then pay this site. The second type doesn’t help (and don’t have a *).
You shouldn’t notice any difference, the links don’t impact the product at all and the editorial line (the things I write) is NEVER impacted by the revenue. If it isn’t possible to get an affiliate link for the best product, it is still recommended and still included in exactly the same way. For more details read how this site is financed.

Is it that hard to understand?
The site is ad free and free to use but Martin has to get funding from somewhere. If you click on a link with a * you are helping to fund the running costs of the site. Ones without a * don't but the site does include them anyway to help you find what you are looking for.0
