At TravelFeed, we're passionate about fostering a vibrant community of travel enthusiasts who share authentic, high-quality content. Our curation process is designed to highlight the best travel-related posts that meet our quality requirements. By adhering to these standards, you'll not only increase your chances of being curated but also contribute to making TravelFeed a trusted source of travel inspiration and information.

Content Quality Requirements

To be considered for curation, your posts must meet the following criteria:

1. Originality: We only accept original content. Your posts should be written by you and reflect your personal experiences and insights.
2. Language: Your post must be in the language you've selected. Currently, we curate content in English, Polish, Spanish, and German.
3. Length: Posts should contain at least 250 words in the selected language. This ensures that you provide sufficient depth and value to your readers.
4. Media Ownership: Only use media (photos, videos, etc.) and texts that you own or have explicit permission to use.
5. Proper Attribution:
   • If you use any content that isn't your own (e.g., quotes from Wikipedia), you must clearly mark it as such. For quotes, use appropriate formatting to distinguish them from your original text.
   • Always provide proper attribution for any external media that are not your own, even if you have purchased it (e.g., stock photos). This includes mentioning the source and, where applicable, the type of license or permission you have. If you use the Unsplash block in the editor, this is done automatically.
6. Travel Focus: Your content must be travel-related. While this can encompass a wide range of topics (destinations, travel tips, cultural insights, etc.), it should have a clear connection to travel experiences.
7. No Reposts: We do not accept reposts of your previous TravelFeed content. Each submission should be a new and unique post.

1. Link Spam: Excessive self-promotion or posting links primarily for advertising purposes is not permitted.
2. Sexual Content: Explicit sexual content, pornography, or overly suggestive material is prohibited.
3. Private Information: Sharing personal information about others without their explicit consent is strictly forbidden. This includes but is not limited to addresses, phone numbers, or private social media accounts.
4. Content Violating Human Dignity: Any content that demeans, degrades, or violates the dignity of individuals or groups is not allowed. This includes hate speech, discrimination, and bullying.
5. Criminal Activity: Content promoting, glorifying, or instructing in illegal activities is prohibited.
6. Violence and Gore: Graphic depictions of violence, gore, or extreme cruelty are not permitted.
7. Misinformation: Deliberately false or misleading information, particularly regarding health, safety, or current events, is not allowed.
8. Copyright Infringement: Any content that violates copyright laws or intellectual property rights will be removed.
9. Impersonation: Pretending to be someone else or misrepresenting your identity is prohibited.
