THE NUMBER ONE RULE IS THAT THIS ARTICLE DIRECTORY CONTAINS ARTICLES THAT PERTAIN TO THE SUBJECT OF CHILDREN ONLY! I would have thought that was obvious by the name of this article directory, but there seem to be plenty of lazy marketers out there who don't care about wasting my time nor their own. WE WILL ONLY ACCEPT ARTICLES THAT ARE ABOUT CHILDREN, CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENT AND FAMILY ISSUES ONLY!
Article Marketing is one of the very best ways to promote your stuff! Best of all, it's FREE!
But that does not mean it's a free-for-all. These are the rules for submitting your articles to the Child Development Site Article Directory. They are simple, but they must be followed!
* The articles that you submit must be your own work – You may not submit articles written by other authors and the content must be unique. You must be the sole copyright holder for each article you submit. Articles written by a ghost writer are perfectly acceptable as long as they are being used only by yourself.
* By submitting your articles to the Child Development Site Article Directory, you grant us the right to publish your articles. We may publish your article anywhere on our website or syndicate through RSS. We may also change where it appears, including the category, at any time.
* By submitting your articles to the Child Development Site Article Directory, you grant others the right to publish your articles. Other Child Development Site Article Directory users have the right to publish your articles on their websites, in their newsletters or ezines, and more as long as the article is left in the original state. This includes the resource box which provides you credit as the author of the content.
* No affiliate links! The articles that you submit to Child Development Site Article Directory should not contain affiliate links. It is acceptable, however, to mention the URL’s of helpful sites or your own website which redirects to the recommended affiliate product.
*You may include 1 (one) link (non-affiliate) in the body of your article and 2 (two) links in the resource box for a maximum of 3 (three) links.
* Submitting your articles to the Child Development Site Article Directory does not entitle you to financial compensation of any kind. You will not receive compensation from Child Development Site or the users of our directory for articles you submit.
* Submitting an article in no ways guarantees inclusion in our directory. We reserve the right to reject an article submission for any reason.
* Articles must be spell-checked and proofread for grammatical errors prior to submitting. Do not submit articles filled with spelling errors and bad grammar. We do monitor article submissions and we will reject content that doesn’t meet this requirement.
* For authors who have reacehed respected author status, your articles will be published immediately on submission, but they will be reviewed by staff. If the submission does not meet our standards it will be removed. Resubmission of a corrected article is up to you.
* New authors' articles will be held in moderation until 10 successful articles have been approved and published and respected author status is granted.
