[lwptoc float=”none” skipHeadingLevel=”h1,h2,h4,h5,h6″]
Use the form on this page if you are interested in paid reviews, advertising, link placement, or sponsored content.
Sponsored Brand Content
Sponsored content can range from promoting upcoming events to writing erotica. Ultimately, it all depends on the product you’re trying to promote and the tone of the message you are trying to send.\
Includes
- 500+ words of high-quality content.
- Promotion on Parlour Talk’s social media accounts.
- Minimum of 2 nofollow links on ParlourTalk.com.
Guidelines and Non-Negotiables
- Deadlines must be flexible to accommodate disabilities.
- A product brief can be given to avoid confusion and multiple revisions over the final product. However, I do not accept pre-written product or service reviews.
- All sponsored posts will be declared, and links will be marked as ‘nofollow’.
- Payment is due upfront before the product is sent.
Brand and Company Guest Post
Due to the fact that this is a promotional post with copy provided by you, the content must be unique (all copy will be checked before publishing using Copyscape). You can use your sponsored post to promote a product, but you cannot review it or imitate my writing style or the writing style of other guest writers.
Includes
- Promotion on Parlour Talk’s social media accounts.
- Minimum of 2 nofollow links on ParlourTalk.com.
- Added to Parlour Talk’s ‘Company Guest Post’ category.
Guidelines and Non-Negotiables
- The post must be in fluent English since my audience is primarily English-speaking.
- The post must be a minimum of 300 words, ideally 500.
- The content must be unique and will be checked with Copyscape or similar.
- Payment is due upfront before the post is published.
- The post will be labelled ‘sponsored’, and it will be made apparent to Parlour Talk’s audience that my guest writers or I did not write it.
Availability for brand guest posts is limited, and only posts that align with Parlour Talk’s values and morals will be accepted.
Product/Service Review Policies
Your product or service will be reviewed thoroughly with high-quality pictures. It can be a general in-use review, an accessibility review, a sex worker-specific review, or a combination of all three.
Includes
- Multiple HD photos.
- A thorough review, including an accessibility overview.
- Promotion on Parlour Talk’s social media accounts.
- Minimum of 2 ‘nofollow’ links on ParlourTalk.com.
- A video unboxing on YouTube is possible for an added fee.
Guidelines and Non-Negotiables
- If you send Parlour Talk an item for review, you acknowledge that all posts will be honest and unbiased. Positive reviews are not guaranteed. If you have paid me to review your product, I will not compensate you or take down the review if it is negative.
- I do not provide a timeframe for unpaid reviews. You can request a review by a specific date, such as Christmas, but I cannot guarantee it. A paid review has a set deadline if you need a guaranteed turnaround time.
- All products MUST be body-safe (silicon, glass, metal, etc.). If you send a product that isn’t a body-safe toy, I reserve the right not to review it and to potentially publically post about being unable to review it.
- Items sent without prior communication will be treated as gifts.
- Additionally, if you send additional items along with the pre-agreed items, it does not mean they will be reviewed on ParlourTalk.com. Any additional items sent will be seen as a gift.
- I am not responsible for paying a product’s shipping or customs costs. If a product gets stuck at customs, I will provide you with the information needed to pay the fee.
- You may not ask for compensation if an item gets lost during shipping.
- If the review is negative, you may not ask for compensation.
- I will always disclose when I receive a product that’s been sent for review. If you continually ask otherwise, you will be blacklisted.
- If your company stops stocking the item or the affiliate scheme closes, I reserve the right to link to it via an affiliate/company that does stock it.
Morality Clause
If your company is found to be in any way ableist, sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, fat-shaming, condone non-consent, harassment or assault, or any other action which is deemed to be oppressive, ParlourTalk.com reserves the right to (with immediate effect) cut ties with said company, and pull or withhold any banner advertisements, link insertions, sponsored content, guest posts, and disclose the behaviour of the company on past posts – sponsored or reviews.
If this happens, no compensation or notice will be given.
This morality clause applies to all reviews, sponsored content, guest posts, giveaways, ads, and content others provide.
By submitting your work, products, sites, media, and press releases, you agree to abide by ParlourTalk.com‘s morality clause.
