Fwd: [EzineArticles Training] Article Title Guidelines

Here is the first edition of the EzineArticles.com Article Writing and Marketing: Article Title Training Series.

To help you get your article approved, here are the current EzineArticles Article Title Guidelines:

1. Your Title MUST Be In Upper and Lower Case Letters
  With The First Letter of Each Major Word Capitalized.

2. The article title must not be in all CAPS.

3. It is not required that you capitalize common words
  such as "a" - "the" - "to" - "for" etc, we accept these
  either way.

4. We do not accept QUOTES around your entire TITLE.

5. Do NOT end your TITLE with a period.

6. Please do not submit Microsoft Word smart quotes in
  your TITLE. This includes quotes, apostrophes, double
  dashes, and 3 dots in a row. Replace smart quotes with
  standard quotes ("x"), apostrophes, double--dashes/or
  three periods (...) in a row.

7. Refrain from excessive repetitive punctuation in your
  TITLE. One exclamation (!) or question mark (?) is enough
  to make a point.

8. We do not allow HTML tags of any kind in your TITLE.

9. Your TITLE must begin with the first word flush to the
  LEFT of the TITLE submission box.

10. We do not allow your AUTHOR NAME or any WEBSITE
  URL to be in your TITLE.

11. Your TITLE must not be keyword stuffed (too many
  redundant keywords used over and over again), but
  rather should read as a natural language TITLE that
  any human could easily appreciate. Do not over-
  optimize your TITLE please.

12. We do not allow Prescription Drug names in the title
  of your article.

13. We do not accept one (1) word as the article TITLE,
  a MINIMUM of two unique words is required.

14. We do not accept articles that use slang terms or
  profanity in the TITLE. Think child-safe or "G" rated
  article titles.

The next edition of the EzineArticles.com Article Writing and Marketing: Article Title Training Series will explain the Article Title Promise concept.
