New Article Title GuidelinesHas this been their policy for awhile or is this truly an upcoming change? Does this mean no more links to your own sites within the article body?
New Article Link/URL Guidelines
- Titles must NOT contain any URLs
- Titles must be more than one word
- Titles must NOT contain HTML tags of any kind
- Titles must NOT be all upper case or lower case letters
- Titles must NOT contain repetitive punctuation such as !!! or ???
- Titles must NOT contain the names of prescription drugs or affiliate programs
If your articles are not in compliance with the above guidelines, we strongly suggest that you login to your member account and use the Edit function to modify them. Failure to do so could result in summary removal of some, or all, of the articles in your account.
- Duplicate links to the same URL in the article body are not allowed.
- Links in the article body should relate to, or support, your article content.
- Links that are only used for keyword anchoring to your own site(s) are not allowed.
- Promotional links for your site, service or product should be restricted to your Author Bio paragraph.
