To ensure the security and reliability of offers published on the Linkhouse platform, it is required to confirm the ability to publish content on the submitted website when adding it to the panel. The verification process is simple and allows us to confirm that the person adding the website has administrative access or other permissions enabling them to publish and manage content on that website.
Thanks to this verification, Linkhouse can assure Advertisers that the offers available in the system have been added by individuals who have real control over content publication on the given website,which increases the authenticity and credibility of the offers.
In this guide, we will explain step by step how to complete the website verification process — from adding the website in the panel to obtaining the “Verified website” status.
How to verify a website?
Where can you find the verification section?
After logging into the Linkhouse panel, go to the Publisher → My websites tab.
At this stage, you can check which websites have been verified and which have not.
You can recognize this by the appropriate symbol in the “Website” column, on the left side of the domain address:
The symbol above means that your website has been successfully verified
The symbol above means that you have not yet completed the verification for this website or that the verification was unsuccessful
If you have added websites that require verification, the appropriate information will appear in two places:

In the same view, in the “Status” column, if verification is required for any website, its status will appear as follows:
You can also access the verification section by clicking the “Website verification” button:
In the verification view, you will find a list of all your websites along with information about their current status. There are also available filters to make it easier to find specific websites — you can check which ones have already been verified, which require re-verification, and for which you have not yet started the verification process.
On the right side of the view, there is an “Actions” section with two available buttons:
- Change verification method – this button allows you to choose how you want to verify the website

After successful verification, the website receives a verified status. In the Publisher → My websites section, in the “Website” column next to the domain address, a green indicator will appear confirming that the process has been completed correctly, and the website status will change from “Verify website” to “In moderation”. From that moment, the website, along with its offers, will be submitted for further moderation and made available to Advertisers.
We encourage you to complete the verification as soon as possible — it allows for a quick confirmation of your ability to publish content on the submitted website. Additionally, it speeds up the activation of the website in the system and enables full access to the features available to Publishers in the panel.
