How do I know if my site, app, or social media channel is suitable for Skimlinks?

Skimlinks partners with content creators and technology developers who operate active, high-quality platforms featuring original content. To be approved, your platform must generate regular traffic, provide clear commercial value, and comply with our network safety standards.

The "Suitable Publisher" Checklist

Before you apply, verify that your platform meets these four essential criteria:

• Original Content: Your site is filled with your own unique articles, reviews, or guides. We do not approve platforms that aggregate or scrape content from other sources.
• Established Audience: Your platform is fully launched (not "under construction") and already receives regular, verifiable organic traffic or active app users.
• Commercial Intent: Your content naturally leads to shopping (e.g., product reviews, fashion blogs, or price comparisons).
• Transparency: Your website must have an "About" page or a clear developer profile that identifies the owner.

Important: Should you apply now? (Resolution Check)

To avoid an immediate denial and a 90-day waiting period to reapply, please perform this final check:

• Content Volume: If your site has fewer than 10 original articles, please do not apply yet. Your application will be denied for "Lack of Content."
• Privacy Settings: If you are applying with a social media account, it must be set to Public. We cannot verify private profiles, and they will be automatically rejected.
• Site Status: If your site is password-protected or shows "Coming Soon," please wait until it is fully public before submitting your application.

Platforms we do not accept

Please note that our decision is final and non-negotiable if your platform contains:

• Adult, violent or hateful content.
• Illegal activities or promotion of restricted goods.
• "Adware" or software that injects links without user consent.
• Coupon/Deal sites that lack original editorial content.
