  1. Submissions must comply with Medium’s Content Guidelines and Curation Guidelines. Stories violating Medium’s guidelines can be reported.
  2. Your post needs to have a title and a subtitle that tell readers what your article is about or why they should read it. Your header is useful for attracting potential readers and making your intentions clear.
  3. Submissions must not be spammy. We do not publish stories whose sole intent is to sell or promote a product.
  4. Use reliable sources. The facts should be double-checked and for cross verification please add a section for “Reference/Source”. This helps the readers to view the concept in detail and also gives credit to the original creator.
  5. We only publish articles with high-quality images. A great image attracts and excites readers. We recommend using Unsplash for all your amazing photos.
