New Article Submission Restrictions
Author: Dan Blackburn | Filed under: Article Marketing, Authors Interest, Publisher Interest, Recomendations & ReviewsWe have implemented some new article submission restrictions today, designed to help speed up the article approval process and further eliminate “article spam”.
The new restrictions we have applied are as follows
- No-one shall have more than TWO articles awaiting admin approval.
- No-one shall have more than FIVE articles awaiting member moderation
These restrictions will ensure that your articles will be approved more quickly and we will no longer have runs of several articles published by the same author in the moderation queue and “recently approved articles” list.
It is also our hope that these improvements will motivate more authors to moderate articles, as doing this is sure to move any articles you have waiting in moderation higher up the list of articles to be moderated. Moderating articles yourself will remove the “articles awaiting member moderation” restriction more quickly and enable you to submit articles again.
If you have any comments, please leave them below
Thanks

Great idea Dan.
I think this should help things run smoother with article moderation. And if avery author takes a few minutes to moderate a few articles each time they submit, everything will move along quicker.
The side benefit for an author moderating articles is that you get to see how and what other authors write. You will see what you like about how an article is written and presented as well as what you don’t think works so well. This can help improve your writing.
Plus, I think that if authors spend a little more time on A-C-K they will see how many more features there are to take advantage of that can help their overall marketing success.
