Can you please link to some sources that you consulted to help you write this piece?
The above is the comment I got from the editor on my submission. Where do i place the link on my document? I need guidance.
Place authoritative, non-commercial links at the end of the article. Use anchor text and a live link.
If you have made medical/scientific claims, recommendations, or similar, you have to back them up with evidence.
Is this your blockchain article? Again, you need to cite your sources.
By the way, who is 'Lucy'?
The article is based on the knowledge I gained about blockchain in one of my online classes. I then wrote the article based on that. In this case, do I provide the link of that website?
You can look up other sources that have the same info. You just need to keep the editors happy by showing that you have researched the topic and can back up your material.
Lucy is confusing because the name appears in the summary/bio but not in the article. You could rephrase it as a question and leave the name out.
I just noticed this, "huge donations go into waist..." It's 'waste'.
Thank you for your quick response.
Lucy is just an imaginary person in the article.

I'm trying to hunt for some link and article submission directories in order to promote my work, I'm looking for ones that are free and require no downloading. I was trying to find some but a lot of them charge money. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Hi all!I had a Amazon product link removed because apparently it didn't meet the necessary requirements. The link went out to the book I have used as a reference in the article and have paraphrased the authors' statements. Doesn't this imply that I have personally used this book? I own this book...

It is my habit to list the sources I use for each article at the end and to link to those that have an internet presence. But sometimes I get this message from HubPages:"We noticed you have a number of links grouped together. To keep your article Featured, please incorporate useful, relevant...

The latest article I submitted didn't pass QAP because it contained "spammy elements." I'm really struggling with what that is because the only links in my articles are the sources I used. Do they want me to not cite my sources? I'm just so confused and it's really discouraging that the...

I really want to speak to the editor that wrote this but there doesn't seem to be any way to contact them. I submitted an article for the niche site and I was just told "please incorporate sources at the bottom of your article for facts/stats that aren't commonly found." I would like to...
