Contributor Content Requirements
In addition to NewsBreak's Content Policy, contributors must also follow these requirements:

Each article must:
1. Be at least 250 words

Each article must include at least 250 words.

2. Include at least one image

All articles must include at least one image that is relevant to the content. All multimedia must be owned by you or you must have obtained permission to use the media if the multimedia is not free for everyone to use without any restrictions. Every image, including images taken by the contributor, must include a credit to the source. Images on our platform, at a minimum, need to be 201 x 201 pixels.

3. Include a headline

Every article needs a factually-correct headline that is directly related to the content in the article (no clickbait). The article should be free from grammatical and spelling errors and cannot include links. Please do not use ALL CAPS.

4. Be free of distracting formatting

Formatting choices should be made with the user in mind. Formatting choices should help guide the reader and not distract or hinder the user’s experience. Contributors should avoid overuse of stylized text features and content should mainly be in regular text.

Each video must:
5. Be between 30 seconds and 20 minutes

Videos published on our platform should be at least 30 seconds long, but no more than 20 minutes. We recommend videos between one to three minutes long and the best practice for video length on NewsBreak is one minute.

Note: if videos are too long they may fail to upload.

6. Include a headline and description

Headlines and descriptions help users discover and better understand your videos. Therefore, we ask you to include a relevant headline as well as a description for every video. Headlines and descriptions should be free of spelling and grammatical errors. Headlines should be under 100 characters. Please see our Promotional and sponsored guidelines for including links in your description
