Editorial Guidelines

Every website and article submitted to this directory is manually reviewed by our editorial team before it goes live. These guidelines explain what we check for and what to expect from the review process.

Website & Link Submissions

  • Live & secure: the domain must be reachable over HTTPS with active, real content — no parked domains, placeholder pages, or expired sites.
  • Original content: the site should be a legitimate product, agency, tool, or piece of industry research — not a scraped mirror or auto-generated page.
  • Accurate category: pick the category that best matches what the site actually does. Editors may recategorize a submission if it's a poor fit.
  • No spam: gambling, adult content, affiliate-only redirect pages, and link farms are not accepted.

Article Submissions

  • Articles are indexed as an abstract plus a canonical link back to the original piece — we don't host full copies unless an editor decides to feature one.
  • The canonical URL must point directly to the actual article, not a homepage or category page.
  • The abstract should accurately summarize the piece — abstracts that oversell or misrepresent the linked content will be rejected.

Review Process

Submissions are queued as pending until an editor reviews them. You'll receive an email as soon as a decision is made — either a confirmation that your listing or article is live, or a rejection with the specific reason so you can fix the issue and resubmit.

Outbound Links

Approved listings link out to the submitted site directly from their profile page. Outbound links currently carry a rel="nofollow" attribute.
