## The short answer

Velvkey treats a porn site as a product to be researched, not as a gallery to be promoted. We compare the current offer, pricing and billing clarity, privacy, trust signals, usability, and category fit. Every public conclusion is limited by the evidence actually available.

## Start with identity and current availability

Before scoring anything, we reconcile the product name, official domain, operator or network when known, and whether the reviewed offer is current. A familiar name is not enough: a product may have moved, been bundled into a successor, paused, or disappeared. Those lifecycle facts determine whether a page belongs in public discovery at all.

## Separate facts, interpretation, and unknowns

A checked fact records its source and observation date. Editorial interpretation explains what that fact may mean for a buyer. Unknowns stay unknown. We do not turn a public policy page into a claim that we tested a membership, cancellation, support response, or private account flow.

## What a complete review should show

- Overall score and confidence level
- Last-reviewed date and evidence posture
- Pricing, billing, cancellation, privacy, and trust observations
- Clear strengths, limitations, and best-fit context
- Relevant alternatives and a route to methodology or corrections

## Keep commercial relationships outside the score

Affiliate availability can determine whether an outbound button exists, but it cannot raise a score, move a site up a ranking, change category membership, or soften a limitation. When a link can earn revenue, the disclosure belongs close enough to the action for a reader to understand the relationship.

Use a Velvkey score as a structured starting point, then read the confidence level and the underlying facts. A high number with limited evidence should not be treated as more certain than a slightly lower score supported by stronger, fresher observations.
