Submission guidelines

What your article needs before you submit it, and what can get it rejected.

Before you submit

  • Title: at least 20 characters.
  • Summary: at least 100 characters.
  • Body: at least 500 words.
  • Links: at most three outbound links.
  • The article is yours to publish. By submitting it you confirm that you hold the copyright or have the right to use the content.
  • It is unique. At least 85% of the text must not already be published and indexed elsewhere.
  • It is family-friendly and within our editorial guidelines.

How to submit

  1. Create an account or sign in.
  2. Add your article, choose a category and a submission option. Submitting is a paid service; the options and their cost are listed in the terms.
  3. Your article goes through automated checks. If it passes, it is published under your name. Our staff review published articles afterwards.

If your article is rejected, we notify you by email.

Why an article is rejected

  • It is not unique enough, or is already published elsewhere.
  • It is not family-friendly or falls under the content restrictions.
  • It has too many external links.
  • It is spam, or AI-generated nonsense or boilerplate.
  • The same article was submitted to several categories or sites.

Submitting spam or duplicated articles can also get an account suspended, as can three rejected articles within 30 days.

After your article is published

  • Others may reprint it free of charge if they keep it whole and unchanged, keep your byline and links, and credit Articles Factory as the source. The exact conditions are in the terms.
  • We check external links about every ten days and remove any that return an error.
