No website badge is required to purchase Starter.

Does Starter bypass moderation?

No. Paid launch options do not bypass moderation or change organic vote counts, weekly rankings, monthly rankings, or top rankings.

Is sidebar placement guaranteed on launch day?

No. Sidebar placement is scheduled according to available inventory and starts on launch or the next available opening.
