Sponsored Content Guidelines – ThingsVegas

Our commitment to transparency, editorial integrity, and compliance with FTC and search engine guidelines.

Disclosure Policy

ThingsVegas is committed to full transparency with our readers. When content is sponsored, paid for, or created in partnership with a brand, we disclose this clearly and prominently. All sponsored content is labeled as sponsored at the top of the article or placement.

Three Core Policies

1. All sponsored content is labeled as sponsored. Every piece of paid or partner content carries a clear disclosure statement visible to readers before they read the content.

2. Links in sponsored content use rel="sponsored" attributes. All commercial, paid, or partner links are qualified with rel="sponsored" in compliance with Google's link policies. We do not sell dofollow editorial links.

3. Editorial content is never for sale. Our editorial reviews, recommendations, and rankings are produced independently. No payment, gift, or commercial relationship influences our editorial coverage. Advertising relationships are kept strictly separate from editorial decisions.

Link Attribution Standards

Commercial, sponsored, or partner links are qualified with rel="sponsored" or rel="nofollow" where appropriate. Editorial links are approved case by case and must be relevant, useful, and non-manipulative. ThingsVegas does not sell editorial links or participate in link schemes.

Prohibited Categories

ThingsVegas will not publish sponsored content or accept paid placements from gambling operators, financial services, pharmaceutical companies, or any business that conflicts with our editorial standards.

Editorial Standards for Sponsored Content

All sponsored content goes through the same editorial review process as our independent content. ThingsVegas retains full editorial control - we may edit titles, copy, anchors, and links for quality and compliance.
