The first sponsored article publishes in September 2026. Every one will be listed here and at melbz.com.au/sponsored.
Our rules, so there are no surprises
- Every paid placement carries a "Sponsored content · Presented in partnership with" banner above the headline, a Sponsored label in the byline, and a footer note naming who paid.
- Links to a sponsor carry
rel="sponsored", the attribute search engines require for paid links. Links stay live, clickable and permanent. - MELBZ keeps editorial control: we may edit for accuracy, decline claims we cannot verify, and we never use endorsement language in paid content.
- Content must be original to melbz.com.au. Permanent URL; we may add an archive note after 12 months but will not remove the page.
- We do not accept gambling, payday lending, unproven health or weight-loss products, speculative crypto, or multi-level marketing.
