Each submitted phrase must be from a physically published work (newspaper, magazines, books, encyclopedias). It cannot come from an online or electronic source (blog, website, personal letter, e-mail). A phrase must also be 2 to 10 words in length. After evaluation, if we accept your phrase, we may edit your phrase, keyword suggestions, and source information. You will still receive payment for this phrase.
Please understand that this is supposed to be unique research and not theft of another's work. If we find that you are entering phrases from reference or quote books, your ability to submit phrases will be terminated.
