Top 3 Reasons Articles Are Getting Rejected…
Wednesday, August 27th, 2008AffSphere Authors,
First of all thanks for such a great job on your submissions! We’re literally working around the clock to get them approved as fast as possible. It’s both a learning process for you and our team, but we’re improving the process on a daily basis!
We’re seeing a few things pop up over and over and thought we’d address it. Other than a few articles which are out right bad quality, most of the ones we are rejecting are for reasons that are very easily fixable!
Top 3 Reaons Articles Are Being Rejected:
1. No Resource Box
We really appreciate the content, but we want to make sure YOU get credit for it! Because of that we are waiting for a full resource box before we accept articles.
I’ve actually been surprised by how many have come in with no resource box. To help this, we’re making sure that the process is smoother when you submit articles right up-front.
2. Dead Links In The Resource Box Or Article
We do click and review every link in your article AND your resource box for quality on the landing page. If any of the links are leading to a “dead” page or a website that does not show up, we are forced to not accept the article.
Please make sure to confirm that your links are all working.
3. Formatting Issues
We are also seeing a few articles that are being added that have too many spaces or are just one big paragraph. This is not very user-friendly for the eventual readers, so we do ask that you pay attention to the format and the way the article displays as well.
We are currently having to reject about 15% of articles for various reasons so we are keeping a very high quality control to award those authors that are doing an excellent job (which is most of you)!
Keep your great content coming! If we can help, let us know.
