(NaturalNews) On December 28th, NaturalNews will publish a free guide to be distributed to all readers, featuring year-end discounts and specials from health-related companies of all kinds. This guide is free to readers and listings are free for health product companies. The purpose behind this guide is to help connect NaturalNews readers with outstanding health-related product companies offering very high quality products at special prices. The guide will be published on the web in HTML form with clickable links.
All natural
health product companies are invited to participate. Final approval of each listing is determined by Mike Adams, the
Health Ranger, and companies whose products do not meet standards of quality (or products from companies with questionable ethics) will not be listed. Specifically, products made with any ingredients that the Health Ranger considers to be synthetic or unhealthy will NOT be listed. This includes products made with Splenda, yeast extract, artificial colors, HFCS and many other ingredients. Only truly holistic / natural products will be included.
Readers that would like to receive the free guide when it's published may receive it via email by becoming a
NaturalNews subscriber here:
www.NaturalNews.com/ReaderRegistrat...To participate in this free NaturalNews Guide, your company may submit one "special offer" listing, via email, to the following email address: specials@naturalnews.com (please read full instructions below before submitting).
How to submit a free listing to the NaturalNews Year-End Health Products Directory
Please observe the following listing requirements. Due to the huge amount of work in compiling this guide, companies that fail to follow these requirements will not be listed:
• There is a limit of one special offer from each company. A "special offer" can be for a single product or a collection of products sold at a single combo price.
• Special offers don't necessarily have to be physical products. You may list special offers for health-related services or books, too.
• Each special offer must have a specific web page URL so that readers can click directly to the special offer page to purchase the product, if they so choose.
• There may NOT be any
pop-ups on the special offer page. Websites with pop-ups look cheesy and unprofessional.
• During the ordering process, companies may NOT place customers on auto-ship arrangements without clear disclosure language that requires customers to specifically opt in to auto-ship by checking a checkbox (or similar action).
• If a coupon code is required to claim the special offer, the code should be ALPHA characters only, not a combination of alpha and numeric (which causes too much confusion).
• NaturalNews does NOT ask for, nor receive, any commissions from the sales of products in this guide.
• Special sections in the guide will be created for special offers in Canada, Australia and the UK. This will allow our readers in those countries to more easily find local companies with special offers.
• The
nature of this special offer guide is not suitable for listings of network marketing products or companies.
•
IMPORTANT: Your listing request
must be sent to us from an email sharing the same domain name as the company website.
Absolutely no listings will be accepted from emails sent from Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo or other mail services. (This is to avoid fraudulent listings.) For example, if your company is
LivingFuel.com, your listing request must be sent from an email sharing the same domain name, such as:
someone@livingfuel.com. Listings received that do not follow this requirement will be deleted! If your company does not have its own domain name, then you cannot be included in this guide.
• Make the
subject of your email: "NaturalNews Year End Guide Listing". This will allow us to automatically sort your listing request into a processing folder. Email listing requests that do not have this subject line will not be considered.
