Article Submission Rules For Authors
General Rules
All articles submitted by you must be written/authored by you. Plagiarism will not be tolerated. Plagiarists will be banned immediately and without recourse, and all their articles will be removed from DU Network. We do track IP addresses and cross-check all submitted articles.
Your article should serve to educate and inform rather than just serve as a promotional piece. Include How To's, Tips, Strategies, Techniques, Case-studies, Analyses, Opinions and Commentary in your articles from your own experience.
Discover Ukraine Network is looking for original, quality articles with content that is informational and well thought out. Articles with grammatical or spelling errors will be edited or, most likely, rejected. Formatting will be covered below.
Article Submission does not mean your article will be automatically accepted to Discover Ukraine Network's Web sites. We have the authority to except or reject any article. As long as your article meets the requirements in these guidelines, your article has a good chance of being accepted. However, if your article is not up to the general standards of our guidelines, Discover Ukraine Network will indicate the reason for rejection in an email notice.
If your article is rejected , you may resubmit your article with errors corrected for approval. If resubmitted with another error, the process will begin again.
Spamming of DU Network will not be tolerated. Submitting multiple copies (2 or more) of the same article using different Titles is strictly forbidden. Immediately, offenders will have their articles deleted and will be banned from future submissions.
Offensive content will be cause for immediate account termination. Articles must not promote hate, racism, pornography, hacking, bomb building, terrorism or any other illegal and/or offensive activities. DU Network reserves the right to categorize any content as offensive.
