“Read More from Author” Link
The “Read More from Author” link lets authors share additional content directly tied to their work, providing users with more valuable insights.
How to Enable This Feature
1. Use a Custom Domain Email
The easiest way to activate the “Read More from Author” link is to sign up with a custom domain email (e.g., [email protected]).
Once signed up, you can add links from your domain or its subdomains.
Info
Note: Public email providers like Gmail, Yahoo, or Outlook are not eligible.
2. Set Up Email Forwarding
If you don’t currently have a custom domain email:
- Check with your domain registrar to see if they offer email forwarding. This is a simple way to set up a custom email (e.g.,
[email protected]) and forward it to your existing email address. - Many registrars provide this service for free or as an affordable add-on.
3. Request Manual Approval
If a custom domain email isn’t an option, send us an email at [email protected] and we’ll take it from there.
Why Require a Custom Domain?
We require authors to have a custom domain for the “Read More from Author” link to maintain trust and quality across our platform. Here’s why:
- Authenticity: Custom domains ensure that the external links you provide are genuinely associated with you or your organization, reducing the risk of impersonation or spam.
- Professionalism: Links tied to verified custom domains help build credibility and provide users with confidence that the content they’re accessing is reliable.
- Platform Integrity: By limiting links to verified domains, we maintain a clean and trustworthy environment for all users.
Even if you don’t have a custom domain email, you’ll need a domain to request manual approval. If you don’t have one, we recommend registering a domain and setting up email forwarding to streamline the process.
