Our Editorial Standards & Framework

Every article published or updated under the Status.net Editorial Team profile moves through a five-stage editorial pipeline before it goes live.

1. Scoping & Research Brief

We start from reader questions: support tickets, community threads, survey responses, and search demand. Each brief defines the reader’s decision, the primary sources required, and the evidence needed to answer the question completely.

2. Primary Subject Matter Drafting

Content is drafted exclusively by professionals with field-tested experience. Writers must document how they know what they’re asserting: hands-on testing, client work, practitioner interviews, or direct data analysis.

3. Data & Fact Verification

Every claim, reference, and metric is verified against primary source documentation. Our source hierarchy:

  1. Peer-reviewed research, standards bodies
  2. Government agencies, regulators, and official statistical offices
  3. Original documentation, filings, and specifications
  4. Our own first-party testing, surveys, and datasets
  5. Expert interviews

4. Line Edit & Compliance Check

A senior editor reviews accuracy, structure, readability, and accessibility (alt text, heading hierarchy, contrast, plain-language standards). A variety of topics receive an additional pass from the Expert Review Panel.

5. Publication & Scheduled Re-Audit

Every published page enters a recurring audit queue.

Corrections Policy

If we get something wrong:

  • Report it to corrections@status.net
  • Material corrections carry a dated correction note at the foot of the article
  • Non-material fixes (typos, broken links, formatting) are logged in the page’s revision history

Editorial Independence & Advertising

  • Editorial decisions are made independently of advertising, affiliate, and sponsorship relationships.
  • Sponsored content is labeled “Sponsored” at the top of the page and is never presented as independent editorial.
  • Reviewers and expert panelists disclose any financial interest in a covered company; conflicts result in reassignment.
  • We do not accept payment for reviews, rankings, backlinks, or guest posts.

Content Maintenance & Update Schedule

To ensure ongoing accuracy, our team continuously audits our archive. The “Last Updated” timestamp on each article reflects substantive revisions: new data, emerging case studies, regulatory changes, or advanced workflows.

Content type Audit frequency
Regulatory, legal, tax, and compliance content Quarterly + on rule change
Pricing, product, and market data Every 90 days
Product reviews and comparisons Every 6 months or on new release
Explainers and tutorials Annually
