New Author Performance Ratings Coming Soon
One of the biggest problems we have is authors submitting duplicate or really poor quality content to the directory. We need to maintain some kind of balance between ensuring high quality and allowing authors to submit content. Therefore we will soon be introducing an author performance rating system which will monitor the quality of authors articles. he higher the quality, the more articles you will be able to submit at any one time and the higher your links appear on our pages.
Thanks to all of you who have been providing excellent articles.

In this email we now include a list of pre-formatted social bookmarking links that will allow you to directly submit your article to all the usual social bookmarking sites - neat!

Articles Counter - New Features Update
So we have been continuing to develop and test our articles directory software and we have made some tweaks to the user login functions. We found that sometimes the website would log you out during an article submission making it a bit frustrating for users. We changed the code and this shouldn't happen anymore. Thanks to those of you who reported this bug.
There have been some minor modifications to some other pages - mostly bug fixes, although we have made a key amendment to our homepage in that it now shows the last 10 article submissions.

The team behind this site are a mix of developers and webmasters. We have a lot of experience of article directories but we are always thinking that improvements could be made particularly in the area of making it easy for authors to submit articles and distribute them.
Articlescounter as it is today, is the culmination of several years of work and development. The site is completely home grown, we don't ...
