Most Common Website Advertising Mistakes

  1. Mandatory statements are missing.
    • (e.g., name and address of responsible advertiser, % alc/vol for distilled spirits)

  2. Health benefits/claims are made.
    • (e.g., “will improve memory,” “no headaches,” “provides energy,” curative claims)

  3. Statements create a misleading impression.
    • (e.g., no statement of composition, misleading references to gluten-free)

  4. Products depicted on website do not display reproductions of approved COLAs.

  5. Low calorie or carbohydrate claim without the Statement of Average Analysis.
