Professional Advertising

Reach people who are actively looking for support.

Stardust Self welcomes advertising enquiries from appropriately qualified professionals and organisations whose services may be relevant to our community.

Visibility with clear boundaries

Advertising should help people find options — not tell them who to choose.

People visiting Stardust Self may be looking for additional professional support alongside the educational tools and resources available on the site.

We want to make it possible for relevant professionals to introduce their services while maintaining a clear distinction between paid advertising and Stardust Self's own content.

Independence matters

Advertising does not mean affiliation or endorsement.

Professionals and organisations advertising on Stardust Self remain completely independent from Stardust Self and LPJ Projects Pty Ltd unless a different relationship is expressly stated.

A paid advertisement, directory listing or sponsored placement does not mean that Stardust Self recommends, endorses, supervises or guarantees the advertiser or their services.

How it works

A simple, transparent process.

01

Tell us about your service

Send us information about your business, professional service, audience and where you would like to advertise.

02

We review the fit

We consider whether the service is relevant to the Stardust Self audience and whether the proposed advertising is appropriate for the site.

03

Agree on the placement

If suitable, we agree on the advertising format, location, duration, content and cost before anything is published.

04

Advertising is clearly labelled

Visitors should always be able to distinguish a paid placement from Stardust Self editorial or educational content.

Advertising standards

Trust matters more than filling advertising space.

Stardust Self may request evidence of qualifications, registrations, professional memberships, insurance or other information where relevant to the service being advertised.

Acceptance of advertising does not constitute verification of every representation made by an advertiser, and visitors should still make their own enquiries before engaging a service.

Advertising must be clear, accurate and not misleading.

Qualifications and registrations must not be overstated.

Advertising must stay within the advertiser's professional scope.

No guaranteed health, psychological or therapeutic outcomes.

Paid placements must remain clearly distinguishable from Stardust Self content.

Stardust Self may decline advertising that does not align with the safety or integrity of the platform.

Important for visitors

Choosing a professional remains your decision.

Advertisers are independent businesses and practitioners. Stardust Self and LPJ Projects Pty Ltd are not responsible for the professional services, treatment, advice, conduct, fees, privacy practices or outcomes provided by an advertiser.

Visitors should check any qualifications, professional registrations, licences, insurance, fees and suitability that are important to them before engaging a provider.

A paid listing or advertisement should not be interpreted as a clinical referral, professional recommendation or guarantee of suitability.

Questions

Advertising FAQs

Does advertising mean Stardust Self recommends my service?

No. Advertising provides visibility only. Paid placements are not endorsements, referrals or guarantees of a professional or service.

Will Stardust Self refer clients directly to me?

Advertising gives visitors the opportunity to learn about your service and choose whether to contact you. Stardust Self does not promise leads, bookings, referrals or client numbers.

Can any business advertise?

No. Advertising is considered individually. Services need to be reasonably relevant to the Stardust Self audience, and we reserve the right to decline an advertisement.

Can I advertise if I work online?

Yes. Online providers can enquire, provided their services are relevant and any professional or jurisdictional requirements applicable to their work are met.

Can Stardust Self change or remove an advertisement?

Yes. Stardust Self may request changes or remove advertising where information becomes inaccurate, inappropriate, misleading or inconsistent with the standards of the platform.
