Key takeaways
- Trust pages are part of the product, not just legal filler.
- Thin or confusing pages make reviews harder.
- Clear navigation and original content matter before ad placement tests.
Make the website understandable at a glance
A reviewer or first-time visitor should be able to understand who you are, what the site offers, and how to contact you without hunting through the interface. That is why About, Contact, Privacy, and Terms pages are worth building early.
These pages also create a more trustworthy experience for users who are deciding whether to subscribe or return later.
Remove confusing clutter before you add ads
It is tempting to test every banner location and pop-up idea immediately. A better approach is to first make sure the page itself is clean, navigable, and useful. Ads perform better on pages that already have a coherent user journey.
Treat policy pages as maintained content
Privacy and terms pages should not be forgotten placeholders. Keep them consistent with the actual site behavior, especially around contact forms, subscriptions, analytics, and email communication.
Frequently asked questions
Should I place ads on every page before applying?
