Article Directory – RightonClick Everytime Submission Guidelines

Every article submitted is human-reviewed by our editorial team, so in order to help your articles get approved more easily, you are advised to adhere to the article submission guidelines as follows. This will save time for both the authors and the reviewers.

Things to Note Before You Start Writing Your Article:

Must Be

1. AN ORIGINAL ARTICLE THAT YOU WROTE. It is okay to submit to other sites as well to increase popularity, but it should be original written article. If you are submitting the article on someone’s behalf, please provide acknowledgment under the bio resource section by including their name and email address.
2. INFORMATIVE in nature and showcase of your unique expertise. Everyone is an expert in something, so you may want to promote yourself by sharing personal tips, methods, case-studies, analysis, opinions and commentary in your articles. Examples of unacceptable articles include those of sales nature such as press releases, advertisements, sales letter, promotional copy, or excessive self-promotion or hype. For this type of promotion needs, there are many readily available avenues from paid online advertising.
3. HAVE PROPER ENGLISH, spelling, grammar, punctuation, capitalization and sentence structure. A properly formatted article is always easier to read and understood by others.

§ Term papers or essays for sale to college students, PLR (Private Label Rights) articles as a good thing (it’s not), the promotion of email Safe-Lists as a good thing (it’s not) or bulk email spamming as a good thing (it’s not), advocacy for paid auto-surf programs as a good thing (it’s not), advocacy of click fraud or clicking on Adsense ads as a good thing (it’s not), advocacy of creating MFA’s (Made For Adsense) sites as a good strategy (it’s not), or advocacy of Adsense Arbitrage (this policy is created to protect our advertisers interests).

§ Any content that is a violation of any law, be considered defamatory, libelous, or infringes on the legal rights of others.

§ Multiple Submission of Similar Article. We do not encourage or accept multiple submission of essentially the same article with only minor changes in the body. Authors who violate this will be banned from this site.

UNDERLINE

is used to force a hard line return. Use this HTML tag to prevent our system from trying to wrap your short sentences together into one paragraph.

<pre> and </pre> To make a text table look right.

<blockquote>TO INDENT A PARAGRAPH</blockquote>

<XMP> and </XMP> are used to display HTML code if you want to show the HTML code but not have our system interpret your code as HTML commands.

<OL> and <UL> tags to create a NUMBERED LIST or a BULLET POINT list. See the Essential HTML article link below for further instructions on how to implement if this is your first time using these tags. These are OPTIONAL tags as you can always just left justify a numbered list or * asterisks for bullets and it makes your article much simpler to reprint.

ix. The following HTML TAGS ARE NOT ALLOWED in the ARTICLE BODY:

and are not allowed anywhere in your article. To accomplish the same thing as the tag, just make sure there is one vertical space between each of your paragraphs.

<JAVASCRIPT> is not allowed in any form.

<IMG SRC> Image tags are NOT allowed.

FONT SIZE changes or COLOR tags are NOT allowed.

<H1>, <H2>, <H3>, etc. tags are NOT allowed.

The <HR> horizontal line tag is NOT allowed.

x. Please do not submit articles with excessive HARD LINE BREAKS. A hard line break is when you use the HTML or tag to force a carriage return rather than allowing each line to wrap naturally. We may either reject or convert any articles that are sent in with hard line breaks. It’s ok to force a hard line break when you’re making a small list of items but it’s not ok to arbitrarily force hard line returns on every single line at a certain character width.
