Selection process
Fewer products, stronger reasons.
A product appearing in an affiliate feed is not enough to earn a public recommendation. Yobost applies technical readiness and editorial-fit checks before a product can support a guide, collection, category page, or newsletter.

Publication readiness
A public recommendation should have a usable image, a valid merchant destination, a normal price, current availability, correct brand and category data, and a recommendation reason that is specific to the product.
- Image and destination-link health
- Price, currency, and stock checks
- Brand, category, audience, and product-type accuracy
- Duplicate and near-duplicate removal
- Independent editorial reason for inclusion
Page-level curation
We assess the page as a whole, not only individual products. A useful collection should provide meaningful variety across use case, construction, price point, or brand, rather than repeating highly similar items to reach a target count.
What selection does not mean
Unless a guide explicitly states otherwise, inclusion does not mean Yobost personally tested the product. It also does not guarantee fit, performance, inventory, delivery timing, or merchant service. Readers should confirm current details on the merchant page.
