Welcome and thank you for your interest in creating a
blog on Internet Stones. COM.
Please take a moment to review these "Terms and
Conditions" . Failure to understand and follow these terms and
conditions will result in your blog being banned.
1) Please do not submit duplicate content to our
directory. Duplicate content means an article (Word for word) that have already been put by you on
other websites or your website.
-
This is for your own benefit, because if you copy and
paste what you have already put up anywhere on the net your article/
blog will not be indexed by the search engines and therefore you will
not benefit from creating this blog.
-
This duplicate content problem can be easily solved
by simply rewriting the article so that it will not be exactly word for
word like the articles/ information you have put up elsewhere. In other
words for your article/blog to be indexed by the search engines you will
have to make it unique.
-
Search engines take duplicate content very seriously,
because if they provide the same search result page from different
websites to a user during a single search, the user will get irritated
and use a different search engine.
-
We use state of the art software at COPYSCAPE.COM to
automatically scan the web for duplicate content pages, if we find out
that your blog contains duplicate content we will be notified automatically and
your blog will be banned, after a manual review. For more details go to
COPYSCAPE. COM
2) Only users who have a lot of unique content and post regularly are allowed to put
affiliate links/advertisements to other websites.
Users may also
upload photographs of products for sale eg rough gemstones, minerals etc.
The idea here is being creative in promoting your
business. We want to help you, but if you make it a SPLOG (Spam Blog) by
putting duplicate content and lot of get rich quick links, we are left
with no option but to ban your blog.
3) Create an "About" page with your real name.
4) We do not accept porn and illegal articles/blogs that do not fall under the Minerals and
Jewelry category. eg you can NOT start a political blog or a photography
blog.
5) Do not submit duplicate content within pages
of your blog.
6) You may start a blog in the following feilds: Jewelry, gemstones, minerals, watches, diamonds, mining of rare minerals, precious metals, celebritiy fashion clothing and jewelry, designer wear eg clothing and handbags.
