Article Directory Submission Guidelines

The rules for submitting your articles to the Collectibles-Articles Directory are simple, but they must be followed!

Articles should be 500 to 3000 words in length, not counting the Title, Summary or Resource Box (if it is longer, break it up into several articles). Each of these goes in its own box on the Submission page. Use short paragraphs for easy reading. Content MUST be detailed, informative and engaging - NOT general observations. Please look at our Featured Article (link in the upper right corner of our Home page) to get a feel for styles that work best.

The articles that you submit must be your own work - You may NOT submit articles written by other authors, and the content must not be plagiarized from another source (you may submit articles of your own that have already been published elsewhere as long as they are truly yours). No rebranded articles allowed, you must be the sole copyright holder for each article you submit. To do otherwise is unethical and illegal. Articles written by a ghost writer for you are acceptable as long as they are being used only by yourself.

By submitting your articles to Collectibles-Articles, you grant us the right to publish your articles - We may publish your article anywhere on our website, blog, or syndicate through RSS. We may also change where it appears, including the category, at any time. We may make small edits to fix errors, but don't expect us to do so. You should use the Spellchecker and have someone review your article if you are not sure of its grammer or readability (we promise our Publishers polished, clean material).

By submitting your articles to Collectibles-Articles, you grant others the right to publish your articles - Other Collectibles-Articles 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 Collectibles-Articles should not contain affiliate links. It is acceptable, however, to mention the URL's of your own website which redirects to the recommended affiliate product.

Use the resource box for linking back to your site - Articles submitted will not be approved if they contain links in the body. Please use the resource box to link back to your site or other relevant sites.

Please limit resource box links to 2 - Articles containing more than 2 links in the resource box will not be approved. IMPORTANT: To make sure readers can see your address, whether the Publisher publishes in the text or the HTML version of your article, you should use the full http:// addess of your site.

Submitting your articles to Collectibles-Articles does not entitle you to financial compensation of any kind - You will not receive compensation from Collectibles-Articles.com 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 spellchecked and proof read for grammatical errors prior to submitting - Do not submit articles with spelling errors or poor grammar. A live person reviews evey article submission and we reject content that doesn't meet this requirement. I'm sorry we said this twice, but it saves Authors, Publishers and us time and heartache if we all know our articles are Good-To-Go.
