The Rules

Before we jump in and start promoting, we need to know the dos and dont's. This section will cover this topic.

To decrease the chances of rejection, remember the following:

The content should not contain bad language or adult content.
The content should not be sales-focused or promotional in nature. It should be focused on helping, not selling.
The content should not focus on a single product, service, or brand.
The content should be in English.
The content should not be difficult to view, read, or understand.
The content should be evergreen, not bound to time.
The content should not contain obvious grammar, punctuation, or spelling errors.
We cannot promote a home page, index page, or social media post.
The content should not be too specific for the intended category.
The content should not contain dead links or hyperlinks that lead to irrelevant content.
The content should not be too strongly opinionated or biased.
We cannot promote something that is already being promoted in another category so no duplicates, please.
We should not have more than 33% of content in one interest category from the same source. In other words, we should not have too many posts from the same source.
The content must be deemed to provide sufficient interest or value.
The content cannot be deemed to be too offensive, shocking, or inappropriate.
