We welcome you to submit your best artwork, like cartoons, comics, and caricatures, for publication on Toons Mag.
This is a checklist and guidelines for submitting posts for publishing on Toons Mag. Some Toons Mag users often make common mistakes, so I created this checklist for them. I hope it can be helpful for you as well. Keep reading forward.
Title and description
Your artwork must be submitted with a relevant title.
Every content you see on Toons Mag, such as cartoons, comics, caricatures, news, and articles, has a relevant title.
Everything on the earth has a name; every movie we watch has a title, and every story we read has a title. And I think your artwork also has a title.
Do not submit your content with the same title again and again.
Each title and description must be unique because Search Engines don’t rank for duplicate content. If you use the previously used title and description of your content and submit it for publishing, then Google search engines will mark your content as duplicate and not appear in Google’s search results. So, it is essential to use a unique title and description.
Select a category from the dropdown list relevant to your content, and input some keywords as tags relevant to your content. You can input up to five tags.
Add a word or two describing your content’s topic and separate it with a comma.
Think about your content about global warming, and then your possible tags can be global warming, climate, temperature, earth, etc. You don’t need to add # hash before any keyword.
