When a post is written by a member, it is not automatically published and archived on the website. Each and every post is monitored by the administration, which can either be accepted or rejected, simple as that. Authors should follow closely with the IncTrade posting guidelines before attempting to submit a post. In order to have your post accepted, you’d probably want to keep these things in mind:

Warning: If a post contains any information, picture, link, ad, attempted ad code, links to ads, pornography, malicious code, or any other contraband, it will be rejected immediately and your account will be permanently banned.

• Quality Content. This means interesting, useful, helpful, cool, creative, and on subject. Note: “On Subject,” means relevant to the category title.
• Pictures. It is important these days to have them, please provide good and relevant photos. At the least, upload a “title” photo for the top left corner.
• Links and relevant information. If any information within a post was taken from any other source, there MUST be a link at the bottom for your post. Also links are useful for a “check this out”.
• Length. Make sure a post has adequate information. Five sentences won’t cut it- but don’t write a novel, it is still a post.
• Tags. Please don’t write a post without using any tags. Tags are relevant keywords to your post, which are necessary for searching, so don’t forget them.
• SEO. We have a built in Search Engine Optimization tool which helps engines find the content. Please fill in the information (Title, Description, Keywords), and be brief on the description.
• Category. Please check ONE relevant category in which to publish your information. Make sure that you have selected the correct category, one that is most relevant to the content.
• “Advanced Options. Do NOT use advanced options, they are for use with administrator pages only. They do not need to be modified what-so-ever, and any post attempting to use will be rejected.
• Date. Do not attempt to edit the publish date of a post, if it is not set for “publish immediately,” it will not be accepted.
• Publish Status. Be sure to select the status “Published,” form the drop down and then submit your post by clicking “Publish”.
