The articles that you submit must be your own work

Articles must be 400 words or over to be accepted
Your article wordcount must be 400 words or more, or it will not be accepted. This one of the ways we filter for good quality article content.

Articles must be spellchecked and proof read for grammatical errors prior to submitting
Do not submit articles filled with spelling errors and bad grammar. Also make sure you double-space between paragraphs. We do monitor article submissions and we will reject content that doesn't meet this requirement.
