Requirements
All author profiles must adhere to these guidelines. Profiles must be:
- Public - which allows all our readers to view your profile
- Authentic - a profile must be of a real person (we do not allow organizations or companies)
- Complete - with all the required information filled in
- Readable and well-written - formatting is not supported
- Appropriate - pictures and all content must not be offensive
- Third-person - the short description and long description should be written in third person (your name, he, she, they).
Tips for writing your short description:
- Briefly state your primary location or experience area
- Summarise your travel experience
Tips for writing your long description:
- Detail your travel experience
- Explain why you are an authority on travel writing
- Share any interesting personal facts
Reasons for Unapproved Profiles
We often decline a profile because it:
- Contains advertising or spam
- Uses fake or stock images
- Is inauthentic, references a fake person, or is about an organisation
- Has a long description and short description that are too similar
- Contains spelling or grammar mistakes
If your profile change is not approved, please review the above criteria and try again.
