As you are probably aware, gambling can be an emotive subject. While the vast majority of people in the UK enjoy the experience of gambling, there is a small percentage who struggle to keep control of their use of online betting and casino sites. We feel it is in the best interests of everyone – as our business is derived from companies that facilitate gambling – that we are clear and upfront about our editorial policy. This is why this page exists.

What our editorial policy means to you

Our editorial publishing policy is vital to both the people who supply content for us, and you, our site users. It is a way of outlining our purpose and working practices, and to explain to you and provide evidence for our transparency and integrity. It also aids us in defining our our standards for quality content, and sets a bar for your expectations. We hope that our transparency helps establish us a site that you can trust – one that aims to inform and educate so that you are empowered to make the best informed decisions.

What our editorial policy means to us

By establishing a clear and precise editorial policy, it allows us to establish clear guidelines and standards for the style of content that we publish on our pages.

By constantly referring to our editorial policy, our writers, content creators and editors understand the standards that we strive to maintain, thus enabling them to deliver content that is consistent, relevant and professional.

Why our transparency is so important

Transparency is a fundamental aspect of our editorial publishing policy. Gambling affiliate sites like ours understand the importance of disclosing their relationships with online casinos and bookmakers. By clearly stating our affiliations and partnerships, we ensure that our readers are aware of any potential biases and can assess the information accordingly. This transparency builds trust and credibility, which are vital in an industry that relies on user confidence.

Why our integrity is so important

Integrity is another vital cornerstone of our editorial publishing policy. Our site is committed to providing accurate information that can be relied upon, and that is as up-to-date as we can make it given the vast amount of information that you will find here. Everything we publish on our pages is done with the best of intentions. We employ people whose sole task is to constant monitor the information we provide to make sure we maintain our accuracy. We strive to be perfect but again, given the vast majority of information we provide, there may be a rare occasion when something that is not 100 percent accurate may slip through. In this case we promise that such information was presented with the best of intentions, and we always acknowledge and thank any site users who bring accidental misinformation to our attention. It all helps to solidify our commitment to our integrity, safeguarding users from such misinformation in order to promote responsible gambling practices.

Why the quality of our content is so important

The quality of the content and information we provide is absolutely crucial, as it is at the very core of everything that we try to achieve. Our editorial publishing policy emphasises the importance of our writers and editors producing content that is not only accurate and useful, but is also well-written, insightful and engaging, and within the sphere of the interests of the people who are most likely to use our site. We recognise the need to prioritise quality, thus delivering value to our site users, enabling them to make informed decisions and to educate them in the ways of how betting sites work and how casino games are designed. We also provide information about specific games, trends and betting strategies that need to be avoided. To be precise, we consider ourselves the most valuable resource available for people who wish to gamble online while doing so safely and effectively, and in an enjoyable manner.

These guidelines encompass various aspects, including accuracy and fact-checking, plagiarism and originality, as well as fairness and objectivity.

  • Accuracy and fact-checking
  • Plagiarism and originality
  • Fairness and objectivity

Accuracy and Fact-Checking

We completely understand the importance of delivering accurate and reliable information. To ensure the accuracy of our content, we employ a thorough fact-checking process that we insist is adhered to at all times. Our team of industry experts verify the information from multiple sources that are both credible and reliable before giving the green light for any article or review to appear on our pages. We strive to present the most up-to-date and factual information available, minimising errors and eradicating misinformation.

In addition, we place significant emphasis on using credible and reliable sources. We have established standards for evaluating the credibility of sources, considering factors such as reputation, expertise, and reliability. By solely relying upon reputable sources we enhance the credibility and accuracy of the content that we provide for our site users.

Plagiarism and Originality

Originality is another crucial cornerstone of our content standards. We strictly prohibit plagiarism in any form and ban content that has been generated by artificial sources. Our team of writers and editors are made aware of the importance of producing original content. They are encouraged to conduct thorough research and in order provide unique insights and perspectives in their work.

To maintain transparency and acknowledge external sources, we encourage proper citation and attribution. Whenever we refer to or quote information from external sources, we ensure that proper credit is given through appropriate citation methods. This not only supports the principles of academic integrity but also allows our audience to access and verify the original sources.

Fairness and Objectivity

At Safebettingsites, we strive to maintain fairness and objectivity in all our reporting and reviews. When providing reviews of bookies and casinos, we go the extra mile by registering an account and experiencing the platform first-hand. This first-person view allows us to provide genuine reviews based on personal experiences, ensuring authenticity and accuracy.

In our comparative pages, we carefully consider and evaluate betting sites and online casinos that align with the purpose and topic at hand. We take into account various factors such as reputation, security, user experience and available features. This ensures that our comparative pages present a fair and objective assessment, guiding our audience towards reliable and suitable options.

We are committed to providing unbiased information and avoiding any conflicts of interest. We disclose any potential affiliations or sponsorship deals to maintain transparency with our audience. Our goal is to empower individuals with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions, without any undue influence.

Editorial Decision-Making Process

You may wonder about the processes that determine the appropriateness of specific aspects of content that we allow to be published upon our pages. In our continuing efforts to promote transparency, we are going to outline the process for you now.

Topic Selection and Coverage

The fundamental criteria for any piece of information that appears on our site, no matter how small, is that it adds value for the users of our site. We do not exist to fill our pages with bloated, needless content just for the sake of it. All our content is useful, interesting, engaging and we hope, entertaining.

If our experts notice that a new sports betting site has arrived onto the scene, then you will usually find that a concise and detailed review for it will appear on our pages within days. If there are important regulatory changes mooted, then these too will be reported upon, as will relevant items of interest in the overall world of sports betting and online casino play.

As it is our duty to keep our site users informed, we will also provide gambling content aimed at helping the newbie take their first steps when gambling online, as well as guides that will aid people who have been placing sporting bets for a considerable periods. This information comes in the form of informative articles about all aspects of gambling, covering specific sports, betting opportunities and the playing of online casino games of all varieties.

Editorial Review and Approval

The overall value of our site would no doubt diminish if we allowed our writers free reign to provide whatever content they desired, even though all our writers are relevant experts in their particular fields. To maintain the effectiveness of our overall content, we employ another level of expertise in an editorial layer whose role it is to determine the topics we will cover. Our writers are then engaged to provide the content as requested.

The second role for our editors is to edit provided content to make sure that it fits in with our editorial policy as a whole, even requesting complete re-writes in the unlikely event that a writer has not met the standards that we expect. We also employ fact checkers and style experts so that the content is accurate and fits in with the SafeBettingSites style holistically. We recognise that site users can grow unsatisfied if they feel a site is speaking to them in 101 different voices, which is why an overall style and approach that is consistent and engaging is absolutely crucial.

Advertising and Marketing

Advertising and marketing both play a vital role in promoting gambling-related products, services and brands to the users of our site. When considering this, it is essential for our practices regarding advertising and commercial considerations to adhere to ethical standards and guidelines. This is to ensure transparency and to prevent misleading tactics. At Safebettingsites we prioritise both honesty and accuracy in all our marketing efforts.
