At Frames2Fit, our editorial integrity is the foundation of everything we publish. Here's how we ensure every recommendation we make is honest, useful, and trustworthy.
1. Independence First
We are an independent publisher. We are not owned by, affiliated with, or paid by any eyewear brand or retailer. We earn revenue through affiliate commissions on products we recommend — but those recommendations are made on merit, not commission rate.
2. How We Choose Products
- Specs first. We pull published frame measurements (width, lens height, bridge, temple) and compare them to face-shape and head-size requirements before any product makes our shortlist.
- Real customer signals. We analyze hundreds of customer reviews — sorting by verified purchase, looking at long-term wear feedback, and weighing fit/comfort complaints heavily.
- Best-Seller Rank (BSR) data. For Amazon products, we cross-reference category BSR to validate genuine demand vs. paid placement.
- Price tiering. Every "best of" guide includes picks at multiple price points so the recommendation fits the reader's budget — not just the highest commission.
- Hands-on testing. When possible, we order and personally evaluate frames before recommending them.
3. How We Write Reviews
- We disclose pros and cons. Every product has trade-offs.
- We say "skip this" when warranted. Loyalty is to the reader, not the retailer.
- We update reviews when product specs, pricing, or availability changes materially.
- We date our content. Every article shows publish + last-updated dates.
4. Corrections Policy
If we publish a factual error, we correct it promptly and add an editor's note at the bottom of the affected article noting what changed and when. Email jordan@frames2fit.com with corrections.
5. Update Cadence
Buying guides are reviewed at least every 6 months — sooner when a major product launch, recall, or price shift affects our recommendations. The "Last Updated" date at the top of each article reflects the most recent substantive review.
6. Sources & Citations
When we cite statistics, studies, or expert opinion, we link to the primary source. Eyewear health claims are supported by sources from the American Academy of Ophthalmology, American Optometric Association, and peer-reviewed research where applicable.
