Editorial Standards for Sponsored Content
Sponsored content published on Class N Study must meet the same quality standards as our editorial articles.
All sponsored submissions must:
- Be original, unpublished, and plagiarism-free

- 1,500–2,500 words preferred for in-depth content
We reserve full editorial rights to edit content, titles, formatting, internal links, and references to ensure clarity, accuracy, and SEO compliance.
Link & Disclosure Policy
To comply with search engine guidelines and protect long-term site authority:
- Sponsored posts include up to one (1) external link
- All sponsored links are marked as nofollow or sponsored
- Over-optimized, keyword-stuffed, or manipulative anchor text is not permitted
- Additional links may be removed or modified at editorial discretion
- Sponsored content is disclosed appropriately where required
Link placement, anchor text, and final approval remain under editorial control.

- Cryptocurrency schemes or investment scams
