Quality standards

Relevance and honesty, by design.

We'd rather under-promise and place you well than dress up inventory with numbers we can't stand behind. Here's how we think about quality.

  1. 01

    Sites we own & operate

    Our own network — we control the content, context, and outbound links.

  2. 02

    Topical relevance first

    Placements are matched to sites built around the right topic, location, or industry.

  3. 03

    Publisher quality review

    Every site is reviewed before it joins the network and as it grows.

  4. 04

    Sensible outbound limits

    We keep placement pages clean rather than stuffing them with links.

  5. 05

    Honest authority ranges

    Tiers describe typical metric ranges and quality — not promises about rankings.

  6. 06

    Private inventory

    We don't publish a scrapeable list of our sites — that protects quality for everyone.

Authority tiers are based on typical third-party metric ranges and our internal quality review. Third-party metrics are outside our control and may change over time, so ranges are indicative rather than guaranteed.
