I have no questions. The guidelines are very well written, easy to understand and educational :)
@SoulfullyAButterfly
Thank you for the tips. Makes sense.
I have read the guidelines, thank you (:
I've gone through the guidlines and have one question left regarding the key words. Are we supposed to figure out ourselves what we consider as keywords or will anybody porvide us with some?
@Icecream2Day for your first article during this Program, you can research them yourself, but are more than welcome to ask for support on this end too! As for the Content Team at 7 Cups we regularly provide article briefs that offer keywords for guidance/an overview of what can be included in the article
