Why Submit Your Profile to AuthorsWiki?
AuthorsWiki is a growing platform dedicated to showcasing authors, poets, screenwriters, and content creators across multiple genres and languages. By submitting your author profile, you establish a strong professional literary identity online while building credibility with readers and publishers. It also increases your chances of being discovered through search engines and provides an opportunity to promote your books, blogs, or other public work. Additionally, you become part of a community of like-minded authors. Before your profile is published, we request that you carefully follow the guidelines outlined below to ensure a smooth review process.
Step-by-Step Submission Guidelines
1. Use Your Real Identity
We prioritize transparency and authenticity across all profiles on AuthorsWiki. Authors are encouraged to use their pen name as the primary profile name, while their real name may be included in the “About Me” section if they wish to share it. Profiles created with fake, misleading, or incomplete identity details are likely to be rejected during the review process. Providing accurate identity information helps us maintain trust and credibility across the platform.
2. Upload a Professional Profile Photo
A clear and professional profile photo helps create a genuine connection with readers and enhances the authenticity of your profile. Authors should upload a high-resolution, front-facing headshot where the face is clearly visible. Avoid using group photos, heavily filtered images, cartoons, memes, or images where the face is obscured by hats, masks, or sunglasses. For best results, use a JPEG or PNG image with a minimum size of 400×400 pixels to ensure clarity and proper display.
3. Provide an Authentic Author Bio
Your author biography is one of the most important parts of your profile, as it reflects your personality, journey, and achievements. It is recommended to write your bio in a clear and structured manner, preferably in the third person. You may include a brief introduction, your writing journey, sources of inspiration, and any significant milestones in your career. You can also mention your published works, blog links, notable publications, awards, recognitions, or contributions to the literary community. For optimal readability and formatting, it is advisable to keep your bio within 150–400 words.
4. Mention Published Work
If you are a published author, you are encouraged to include details of your work to strengthen your profile. This may include the ISBN number of your books, links to platforms such as Amazon, Flipkart, or your personal website, and references to articles, blogs, or poems if you are a digital writer. However, unpublished or aspiring authors are also welcome to create profiles, provided they present their work and journey honestly and transparently in their bio.
5. Email Verification Is Mandatory
A valid email address is required during profile submission to ensure smooth communication and verification. This email will be used to send you notifications regarding profile approval, request any necessary edits, and confirm your identity as part of our review process. Please note that your email address will remain private and will not be displayed publicly on your profile.
6. Manual Review & Approval Timeline
All submitted profiles undergo a manual moderation process conducted by our editorial team to maintain quality and accuracy. The typical review timeline ranges from 15 to 30 business days. If any changes or clarifications are required, you will be contacted via email. Once your profile meets all the guidelines and is approved, it will be published on the AuthorsWiki platform.
7. Original & Copyright-Free Content Only
We maintain strict standards regarding originality and intellectual property. Authors must ensure that all submitted content is original and not copied from external sources such as Wikipedia, other websites, or unedited AI-generated material. You should only submit work that you own or have the rights to share. Any instance of plagiarism or copyright violation may result in immediate rejection or permanent disqualification from the platform.
