Links and attribution
- Authors will be provided one link to a website of their choice in their author bios. These links will be standard links and should be the web address of their website (e.g. inman.com) and not anchor text (e.g. “real estate news” linked to inman.com)
- Links in articles will be evaluated for relevance and fit prior to publication. Articles and links may also be reviewed after publication and updated as deemed necessary by Inman.
- Articles should generally have four or fewer links. Exceptions are round up posts or list type posts that link to a large number of resources.
- Links in articles should only point to:
- Brands (e.g. DocuSign, Re/Max, etc.)
- A mentioned domain name (e.g. realestatewebmasters.com)
- An article acting as a source for the story (e.g. NAR's homeownership report or similar)
- Links in articles should not:
- Link to non-authoritative pages or sources
- Be used purposefully for building SEO to websites
- Inman reserves the right to remove, update, nofollow or change any link in any article at any time.
- Inman reserves the right to update this policy at any time.
