Why we never take paid placements

Every article and listing here is free. That is a deliberate choice, and it is the reason the site is worth reading.

Readers can tell

When coverage can be bought, readers learn to skip it. A story is only useful if the reader can trust that it was chosen because it is interesting, not because someone paid.

How we choose

Our editors read every pitch. We look for something new and specific, people behind it who can tell their own story, and facts we can check. We decline pitches that are unclear, misleading or not a good fit, and we do not promise that a pitch becomes an article.

What we check before publishing

We confirm names, dates and claims with the business and with public sources. If something cannot be checked, it does not go in. Businesses can ask for corrections at any time through the about page.

If a business is connected to us

If we ever write about a business that is owned by the operator of this site, the article says so clearly at the top. No exceptions.
