People first
Each guide should solve a real problem or explain a real system. We do not create near-duplicate pages simply to target different spellings, cities, or keyword variations.
Editorial policy
Useful technical writing, without invented certainty.
DotMoose guides are written to answer practical hosting and domain questions. This policy explains how we separate durable concepts from details that need current verification.
Purpose
Help readers make and operate better hosting decisions.
Visible substance
The useful answer belongs on the page. Structured data, titles, snippets, and internal links support the content; they do not replace it.
Commercial context is disclosed by design
DotMoose sells hosting, domains, servers, migrations, and backup storage. Guides may link to a DotMoose service when it is a reasonable next step, but the technical explanation should remain useful even when the reader does not buy anything.
No paid ranking tables
We do not sell placement inside editorial rankings or manufacture review scores for products we have not independently evaluated.
Accuracy
Stable concepts stay stable. Changing details get checked.
Time-sensitive claims
Vendor features, software requirements, registry rules, security recommendations, laws, pricing, and product behaviour can change. Material claims in those categories should be checked against current authoritative sources before publication or a meaningful update.
Meaningful update dates
We change an article's update date when the content changes in a way that matters to the reader. A formatting edit is not a reason to make old material look newly researched.
Operational claims
Public guides and product pages should not promise uptime, retention, security controls, support response times, inbox placement, or automation that DotMoose has not actually implemented and tested.
Corrections
If you find an error, send the page URL and the issue to hello@dotmoose.com. Material corrections should update the page rather than being hidden in unrelated copy.
