Article Guidelines for Submission
Articles for submission must meet certain criteria that is fairly universal amongst all article directories. These are not meant to necessarily be written as a sales pitch. An article for article submission should be informative and demonstrate your expertise in the field.
Let’s use Real Estate as an example. Instead of an article about how someone should buy this house or that apartment, you would want to offer information surrounding it. This helps your image grow to the reader as an authority. For instance, “How a Swimming Pool Affects Home Equity” or “Will Vinyl Siding Improve My Resale Value?”. Articles that pertain to the field but are not selling it. Your Author Box will have links to your website and product for that person to explore more.
-
Content must be unique. It can not be plagiarized or be a compilation of other work.
-
Your title should be no longer than 75 characters and should have word capitalized like a proper noun. Do not use all capitals.
-
A 200-250 character (not words, including spaces) short description should serve as a hook to interest a reader and lure them in.
-
The author’s name should be provided. This cannot be a company name or a screen name. It can be a pen name if you choose to use one but it generally is not a good idea for building presence for you and your company.
-
The Author Box should be between 200-250 characters (not words, including spaces) to give some background information on the writer (or you, if you’re using a ghost-writer).
-
You may provide up to 150 characters (not words, including spaces) of keywords that identify and are relevant to your article.
-
The article should only be text with no links (except the Author Box). Do not include graphics, sales pitches, or links in the body of the article.
-
Proof reading is important. Either set it aside for a few hours and come back to it or ask another person to read the document to see if they spot errors. Incorrect grammar and spelling will be a turn off to readers.
