NoodleMagazine (noodle-magazine.co.uk) Last updated: August 2026

This page explains how content on this site gets made, who makes it, what we will and will not publish, and where we stand on paid placements, third party marketplaces, and the use of AI. It covers everything on this domain, the blog, our own NoodleMagazine Originals issues, product pages in the shop, and every category page in between. If something here conflicts with what a seller, broker or middleman has told you about us, this page wins.

Who We Are

NoodleMagazine is an independent magazine shop and publisher based in Bexleyheath, England, founded by Khurram Pervaiz Khan and Shahina Khan. We sell established magazines through direct partnerships with publishers, we produce our own titles under the NoodleMagazine Originals name, and we run an editorial blog covering lifestyle, health, fitness, home improvement, business, fashion, beauty, travel, tech and entertainment. The shop and the editorial side are run by the same small team, but they answer to different rules, and this page sets out the editorial ones.

Who Writes Our Content

Articles on this site are written either by our in house team under the NoodleMag Staff byline or by named contributors who work in the field they write about. Where a piece carries a named author, the role shown next to the name reflects what that person actually does for a living. A fitness piece from a trainer, a tech piece from someone who works in tech. We think a byline should mean something, so we do not attach expert sounding names to content those people never touched.

Every piece, staff or contributor, goes through the same editorial review before publishing. An editor reads it, checks it against this policy, and has the final say. No article goes live on this site without a human editor approving it.

Facts, Sources and Corrections

We check facts before we publish them. Claims that rest on numbers, dates, prices or events are verified against published sources, and our Originals issues state their editorial cutoff date in print so readers know exactly what the reporting could and could not have known. Where we report on people’s private lives, we only carry what reputable outlets have already published, and private matters stay private.

We still get things wrong sometimes. When we do, tell us at editor@noodle-magazine.co.uk. Genuine errors get corrected in the article itself, and where the error was significant rather than a typo, we note the correction on the page rather than pretending the mistake never happened.

Our Position on AI

Words first. The articles on this site are written and edited by people. We accept AI assisted content but we do not publish one shot machine generated articles dressed up as human work, and any contributor caught submitting one will not be published here again. Using AI is fine, but scaled content generation is not accepted.

Images are handled openly. Our Originals issues use a mix of commissioned AI generated imagery and photography sourced from publicly available material, and both are labelled where they appear. AI generated images depict fictional models and fictional scenes only, never a real person’s likeness, and sourced photography is credited to its origin in situ. If an image on this site is AI made, the label says so on the page. That has been our printed picture policy since the first Originals issue and it applies across the site.

Guest Contributions

We accept guest submissions in the categories listed on our Write For Us pages, currently lifestyle and self development, health and fitness, beauty and fashion, home improvement, and travel. The route in is the same for everyone, read the relevant Write For Us page, then send your pitch or draft to the contact given there.

Now the part every prospective contributor should read twice.

  • Every submission is subject to review and approval against our editorial quality standards. Acceptance is a decision our editors make, article by article, and publication is never guaranteed to anyone, for any reason, at any price.
  • We edit. Accepted pieces may be revised for accuracy, clarity, tone, structure and house style before and after publishing.
  • Links live or die on merit. Any link inside a submission is kept, altered, given a nofollow attribute, or removed at our discretion, and that discretion does not expire when the article goes live. We may revisit and change links in published content at any time.
  • We can decline or remove content at any time, without notice. Publication today is not a promise of placement forever.
  • Content that fails our standards does not get published, full stop. That includes machine generated text, thin rewrites of existing articles, misleading health or financial claims, and anything written for search engines rather than readers.

No Guaranteed Publication or Link Placement

All articles, pitches, contributor submissions, partnership requests, sponsored-content proposals, and guest-post submissions are subject to editorial review.

Payment to a third party does not guarantee publication on Noodle Magazine.

We do not guarantee:

  • acceptance or publication of submitted articles;
  • placement of a particular backlink;
  • use of requested anchor text;
  • followed or “dofollow” links;
  • permanent links or permanent publication;
  • search-engine indexing;
  • specific Google or other search-engine rankings;
  • increases in Domain Authority, Domain Rating, traffic, leads, or sales;
  • publication within a particular timeframe; or
  • continued publication of content that no longer meets our editorial, legal, technical, or quality standards.

Noodle Magazine retains full editorial discretion over whether content is accepted, rejected, edited, updated, attributed, linked, labelled, removed, or declined.

Editorial Standards Apply to Every Submission

Guest contributions are considered on the basis of editorial relevance, originality, accuracy, usefulness, sourcing, writing quality, transparency, and suitability for Noodle Magazine’s readers.

Submitting an article does not create a right to publication.

Requests primarily intended to manipulate search rankings, insert unrelated commercial links, disguise advertising as independent editorial content, or otherwise undermine our editorial standards may be rejected.

Where appropriate, commercial relationships, sponsored content, advertising, affiliate relationships, or other material connections may be identified or handled in accordance with Noodle Magazine’s editorial policies and applicable requirements.

Beware of Unauthorised Sellers

If a third party claims that it can guarantee publication, permanent backlinks, specific anchor text, a particular link attribute, or guaranteed placement on noodle-magazine.co.uk, readers and businesses should independently verify that claim before making payment.

Noodle Magazine is not responsible for payments made to unauthorised third parties or for representations, promises, guarantees, or services offered by parties with whom Noodle Magazine has no authorised relationship.

Third Party Marketplaces and Unauthorised Listings

NoodleMagazine does not sell guaranteed link placements.

Vefogix currently advertises:

“Publish Guest Post on noodle-magazine.co.uk” — $87

It advertises:

  • 1 DoFollow backlink
  • permanent placement
  • article length of 1,250–2,750 words
  • link insertion
  • SEO-oriented publishing rules

Even more revealing, its instructions say customers upload their: article, anchor text and target URL

A second guest-post marketplace, GuestPostNow, also lists Noodle Magazine at $145 per post across an extremely broad list of niches.

The appearance of noodle-magazine.co.uk on a third-party marketplace or service does not mean that Noodle Magazine created, approved, authorised, or has any commercial relationship with that listing.

What this means in practice:

  • A payment to one of those platforms is a payment to that platform, not to us, and it buys no obligation from this site. We do not honour orders, deadlines, anchor text requirements, link attributes or placement promises sold through any marketplace.
  • If you paid a third party expecting guaranteed publication on noodle-magazine.co.uk, take it up with the party you paid. We cannot be responsible for money handed to other business.
  • The only way into this site is the one described in the Guest Contributions section above, direct submission, editorial review, no guarantees. Anyone selling you a different route is selling something they do not have. Please protect yourself from scams that trade on our name.

If you come across a listing, seller or individual claiming to guarantee placement on this site, we genuinely want to hear about it. Send a link or screenshot to editor@noodle-magazine.co.uk and we will take whatever action is available to us.

Independence

No advertiser, contributor, marketplace, publisher we stock, or commercial partner directs our editorial decisions. What we cover, how we cover it, and what we decline are calls made by our editors alone. Where an opinion appears on this site, it belongs to the writer whose name is on it.

Contact

Editorial questions, corrections, submission queries and reports of misuse all go to the same place.

This policy applies to all content published on noodle-magazine.co.uk and to all past and current third party listings of this domain. We review it periodically and the date at the top reflects the latest revision.
