How we write and check our guides

Last updated

Socipro’s blog explains how Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and X work, what their rules say, and what to check before you buy growth services. This page sets out how those guides are written and checked.

We sell what we write about

Socipro sells followers, likes, views, comments, shares, saves, reposts, live viewers and X trend campaigns. Many of our guides cover the same topics. That is a conflict of interest, and we would rather name it than hide it.

Every article carries the line “Socipro sells the services mentioned in this article.” Beyond the label, we hold ourselves to three rules:

  • The platform’s position comes first. When a guide discusses a paid order, it first states what the platform’s own terms and policies say about it, with a link.
  • We say when a purchase does not fit. If a paid order is the wrong tool for a goal, such as qualifying for a monetization program, the guide says so, even when that costs us a sale.
  • No pitch to mislead others. We do not suggest using bought numbers to mislead customers, advertisers or sponsors about a business’s popularity, and we never advise faking reviews.

Each guide links to one related service. Links to our own pages are never disguised as independent recommendations.

Who writes our guides

Our guides are written by Eleanor Whitmore, who covers Instagram, TikTok and local marketing, and Oliver Ashford, who covers YouTube, X and our buying guides. Every article names its author in the byline, with a profile page that lists the person’s role, background and other articles. The named author is responsible for the article’s accuracy. Guides on platform rules, safety and law also carry a “Reviewed by” line naming a second person who checked the claims against the sources before publishing.

We do not publish under invented names or personas, and we do not accept payment from third parties to publish or shape an article.

Sourcing rules

Primary sources first. For platform rules we cite the platform’s own help center, terms or official announcements. For law we name the statute and the regulator and link to the official text, usually a government or regulator website. For statistics we cite the organization that collected the data, with the year.

Every source is dated. Each article lists its sources at the end, with the date we accessed them. Legal guides also say “Checked” with the month and year the rules were last verified.

Numbers need a source. Every figure in an article comes from a named external source, from our live catalog, or from our own measurements with the month and method stated. Prices, package sizes and refill windows are never typed into an article. They are shown from the catalog, so a guide cannot contradict the order page.

What we leave out. If we cannot verify a claim against a source we can link, we leave it out. That includes popular figures that circulate without an origin, such as “best hour to post” numbers with no study behind them. We do not publish testimonials, invented examples presented as real customers, or reviews that did not come from verified orders.

Location is described honestly. When a guide is about a country or city, it is written for people there. It never implies that delivered followers or views come from that place, because delivery is not location-targeted.

Guides about advertising law, influencer permits or platform policy are general information, not legal advice. They explain what the rules say and link to them so you can read the source. For a decision about your own business, speak to a lawyer qualified where you operate.

Corrections

If you find an error, email support@socipro.com with the article link and what you think is wrong, ideally with a source. We check every report against the sources. When a correction changes a fact, the article is fixed and a dated note at the bottom says what changed, for example “Corrected Oct 2026: the permit applies to paid posts only.” We do not silently rewrite facts.

How often we update

Platforms change their rules often, so dates matter.

  • Law and platform-policy guides are re-checked at least twice a year, and straight away when we learn that a rule has changed.
  • All other guides are reviewed at least once a year.
  • The Updated date on an article changes only when the facts or advice change, not for small wording edits. Each substantive update adds a changelog line at the bottom of the article.
  • Years in titles are used only on guides we review every year, and the year changes only after the article has actually been re-checked.
