Guidelines for Submitting Articles to International Adoption Articles Directory

1. This directory is devoted exclusively to international adoption information for parents and professionals. We do not accept articles on non-related subjects. We may publish articles with the information applicable to children and parenting in general. Please choose the appropriate category/subcategory for your article to help readers find your information. We reserve the right to change category for your article, if necessary. If your article is adoption related, but you do not see the appropriate category or subcategory for it, contact the administrator, and we will consider additions.

2. The articles that you submit must be your own work. You may not submit articles written by other authors. You must be a copyright holder for each article you submit.

3. By submitting your articles to International Adoption Articles Directory, you grant us the right to publish your articles on the Internet. We may publish your article anywhere on our website, blog, or syndicate through RSS.

4. By submitting your articles to International Adoption Articles Directory, you grant others the right to publish your articles. Other International Adoption Articles Directory users have the right to publish your articles on their websites, in their newsletters or ezines, etc., 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.

5. Submitting your articles to International Adoption Articles Directory does not entitle the author to financial compensation of any kind. If you are a writer who charges for your articles, you should not post them here.

6. Submitting your article to International Adoption Articles Directory does not guarantee its inclusion in our directory. We reserve the right to reject an article submission for any reason.

7. Articles must be spellchecked and proof read 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.

8. The articles may have simple html formatting: <cr>, <b>, <ul>, <li> tags for indenting and highlighting purposes. The links to your own page and additional information about you are also allowed. To make them clickable, use <a> tag as you normally would in html programming. Preview the text before submitting it.

9. Please choose the most appropriate keywords; do not copy your title. Each article is indexed independently by search engines, so it pays (for you -- first of all) to select keywords that will pull out your article during searches that people do outside of the directory.

10. A good summary is important, because that's what readers see first.

11. Use plain text editor for better results
