New questions submitted by email get a personal reply from an editor within three business days.
Who actually writes the articles on Slumber Standard?
A small team of staff writers with backgrounds in science journalism and research, each publishing under their own name. Every draft is also read by a second editor before it goes live, so no single person's take goes unchecked.
How is Slumber Standard funded, and does that affect what you publish?
We run on reader support and clearly labeled display advertising. We do not accept payment from mattress, supplement or sleep-tech brands in exchange for coverage or rankings, and we say so directly on any page where a brand is mentioned.
Can I suggest a topic for a future article?
Yes. Use the topic suggestion field on our contact page and tell us what you're trying to figure out. A good share of our recent guides started as a reader question that kept coming up.
What happens if an article turns out to be wrong or outdated?
We correct it in place and note what changed and when, rather than quietly editing the text. Reported errors are reviewed and, where confirmed, corrected within 30 days.
