Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

NewsReadery is a social content reader and search engine service providing fast and simple access to a diverse variety of content from a large variety of quality sources.

NewsReadery was created to help content sites and creators find new ways of reaching more people while helping everyone gain access to new, interesting and diverse content in a simple and powerful service.

We do this by hand-selecting which sites are included in NewsReadery and providing our users with the tools they need to personalize their content consumption through a simple interface.

We are biased in our opinions of course, but we believe NewsReadery is better than other news and content readers for several reasons, starting with providing access to a much larger variety of content sources rather than promoting the same sources you see everywhere else.

NewsReadery lets everyone decide what content they see or do not see by providing our users with the tools to follow and block content using a simple and fast interface.

Most importantly, NewsReadery provides an independent platform with no political alignment or corporate agendas, and best of all, we do it for FREE!

NewsReadery was created by one developer with the goal of helping independent web sites and content publishers reach more people and gain more exposure.

NewsReadery operates as an independent site and platform with no political affiliation.

Our goal is to include content with a variety of viewpoints and provide our users with the tools to personalize and filter content based on their own preferences.

As content consumers, we all have sites that we like and do not like, but as a platform, it is not our place or responsibility to decide that for you.

NewsReadery provides you with the ability to filter content you want and do not want to see.

While we strive to maintain a neutral position when it comes to politics and viewpoints, we do not allow sites that promote violence against other people or that fail to adhere to US laws and regulations.

Content that violates US laws and regulations is not allowed on NewsReadery and any site(s) found to be publishing this content will be removed from our site.

Too many content publishers rely heavily on one or two sources for most of their non-direct traffic which makes them very vulnerable and sensitive to changes made by those sources.

When search algorithms or the way content is promoted and demoted is changed by those sources, it can have a dramatic impact on a content publisher's traffic and revenue.

The more you diversify your traffic sources, the less your site will be affected by those types of changes.

You can use the Submit Site form to submit your site for review.

While we cannot guarantee your site will be added to NewsReadery, we will review and consider it.

Absolutely! In fact, most site owners would greatly appreciate you doing that for them.

Submitted sites are reviewed in batches at different intervals.

Depending on when a site was submitted, it can take up to 14 days before it is reviewed and added if approved.

Sites are manually reviewed and selected for inclusion in NewsReadery by our staff.

While this is very time consuming, it allows us to maintain a high level of quality of content and search results while preventing manipulation and abuse by unscrupulous actors.

While not common, we will remove a site and its indexed content from our search engine when requested.

To request your site be removed from NewsReadery, please use the Contact Us page to provide information that we can use to verify you are authorized to make the request.

It is important to understand that once a site is removed by request, it will not be considered for re-inclusion in the NewsReadery search engine again for at least one year.
