Mis-Categorized Titles

Mis-Categorized Titles

Posted by Admin | August 24, 2008 | Comments (6)

In an ongoing effort to supply Demand Studios writers with new and unique topics, we will upload hundreds of new titles to www.demandstudios.com from time to time. Unfortunately, a few of these titles will end up in the wrong categories during the bulk upload. We would like all writers to remember that if a title seems to be in the wrong category, it likely is, so there is no need to try to conform the article to account for the categorization. If you encounter mis-categorized title, please email the editorial team and we will change the category for you as soon as possible.

I've noticed a feature when you write/submit an article that allows you to change the category. I have used it before and it works like a dream. Thank you for adding that!

Thanks. I write a lot of yoga and exercise related topics and they always end up in the wrong category. Thanks for this tip!

Is it preferable to make a note to the editor when submitting the article or actually email EditorialTeam@demandstudios.com when we need an article assigned to a different category?

The blog is a great idea, especially with all of the changes that have been happening on the site lately. I am sure that the entire editorial team is quite busy right now. With that in mind, would it not be easier to allow the article author to change the main category of the article, as well as the sub-categories upon submission? There are quite a few titles on the site right now that are incorrectly categorized, and I imagine that it will be quite a bit of work for the editors to remedy the situation. By allowing the author to change the category, the workload of the editor would be reduced and the author would be able to submit the article immediately, rather than having to wait for an editor's response. Thanks for the great opportunity, I look forward to seeing the results of all the recent changes...

I'm glad to see that this is helpful. Dave- we are currently working on the system to allow all writers access to categorization changes. I will let you know when that happens. Diana- for the time being, you are welcome to leave a note on the article for the editor. -Soren

The most frustrating thing about incorrect categorization is that when searching for titles to write, you can't find ANYTHING related to what you're looking for in a particular category. It makes claiming assignments way more time consuming and frustrating!
