> How Lede Press chooses, edits, and publishes a page, including the one dofollow link and the reasons a listing is refused.

Updated October 31, 2026.

A publication has a title, a short summary, and a body a person can read. A name, a logo, and a link are not enough.

Every published page is filed under at least one category. A category list is a filing system, not a ranking.

The link rules are: one link per page, the link points at the product, the link text already appears in the body, the body contains no other URL, and the link is the first time that phrase appears. The anchor is dofollow.

These pages are placements. A business submits the product. The page is free with a badge, or $29 without one. The $29 page is edited for search engines and answer engines, and a Pinterest pin links to the article.

Editing keeps the product, the URL, and the substance of the claim. Lede Press does not invent customers, numbers, or features.

A listing is refused when the page misstates the product, the link points somewhere else, the draft has nothing to read, the material is copied, the account cannot be tied to the product, or the same product is already published and the new draft adds nothing.

Corrections and removals go to hi@ledepress.com with the page URL. A correction updates the live page. A removal takes it off the homepage, the category pages, and its URL.
