>> Write an Article - Guidelines

Book Review Guidelines

  1. The review should be 400+ words.
  2. Rate the book on a scale of 1 to 10.
  3. Use paragraphs / sections while talking about different segments in the book.
  4. The review should end in a conclusion of 2 to 3 lines
  5. Provide book details like the ISBN, names of all the authors, publisher and the number of pages.
  6. Provide a link to the official book page at the publisher's website.
  7. Tell the reader what you liked and what you disliked about the book.
  8. Be specific about your comments. Tell the reader why you are making a certain comment about the book.
  9. The author has put a lot of time and effort into writing the book. Ensure that you do not jump to conclusions and have a good understanding of what the author is trying to convey, before you comment on the book. There's nothing worse for an author and a book than a review written without good understanding of the subject or the book.
  10. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to email the editor.
  11. Please submit the review in 3 weeks time.
Formatting
  1. The article should be submitted in HTML format only. No MS Word files please.
  2. It is very important that the HTML should be free of an CSS style usage. Only pure HTML is acceptable. Many common HTML editors use CSS in the background. So check your HTML before you submit.
  3. Make use of HTML formatting like
    1. Headings
    2. Lists and Tables
    3. Bold
    4. Italics
  4. Use h1, h2 and h3 headings to organize content. Avoid going beyond h3.
  5. Include your short bio at the end of the review.
  6. All keywords and code words should be marked in italics.
  7. If you are referring to somebody else's content, cite the source in the copy, and provide a link if appropriate.
  8. All acronyms should be capitalized. Explain the acronym on it first usage. Example:
    Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)
