How topics are selected
We prioritize questions people are already asking about no contact, breakup boundaries, texting an ex, and recovery tools. A page should serve a distinct purpose. When two pages answer the same question, we consolidate them instead of keeping both for search traffic.
What every guide should do
- Answer the question early. Readers should not need to scroll through an introduction to find the basic answer.
- Add a practical next step. Guidance should lead to a checklist, tool, example, boundary, or decision.
- Avoid manipulation. We do not publish tactics that promise to make an ex jealous, force a reply, or guarantee reconciliation.
- State exceptions. Safety, parenting, housing, legal matters, work, and shared responsibilities can require limited contact.
- Separate education from treatment. We do not diagnose conditions or present general content as therapy.
Sources and claims
When a page makes a factual health, safety, or legal claim, it should link to a reliable primary or professional source. Personal recovery timelines are presented as examples, not promises. We avoid invented statistics and unsupported success rates.
Updates and corrections
Core tools and high-traffic guides are reviewed when their behavior changes, when a page becomes outdated, or when search questions reveal that an answer is unclear. Substantial reviews receive a visible updated date. Dates are not changed only to make content appear fresh.
Software assistance
Software may assist with editing, code, structure, and consistency. Published pages are maintained as part of the site and are expected to meet this policy regardless of the tools used during production.
Limitations
No Contact Days is not a clinical publisher and does not claim professional credentials it does not have. The site provides general self-help tools and educational information. For individual mental health, legal, safety, or crisis needs, contact an appropriately qualified professional.
