TechGummy Content Submission Guidelines
High-Quality, Original, and Globally Compliant Publishing Standards
At TechGummy Technologies Limited, our mission is to help authors turn their ideas into wealth by publishing books that meet the highest global standards. To maintain quality, protect authors, and ensure excellent reader experience, all manuscripts must follow the guidelines below.
1. Originality & Ownership
All content must be original, legally owned, or properly licensed.
No plagiarism (text, images, illustrations, or ideas).
Quotes, scriptures, or references must be properly cited.
No fanfiction featuring copyrighted characters, worlds, song lyrics, movies, or brands.
2. Book Block & Manuscript Structure Requirements
A “book block” is the internal structure of your book — chapters, layout, flow, text integrity. Poor book block quality causes books to be rejected or heavily criticized by readers.
Your manuscript must have:
2.1. Complete & Coherent Content
No missing chapters
No half-written sections or placeholder text
No disjointed ideas or incomplete arguments
2.2. Logical Structure
Clear chapter titles
Consistent voice and writing style
Proper introduction, body, and conclusion
Smooth flow between paragraphs
2.3. Clean Formatting
Techgummy will format professionally, but the manuscript must be readable:
No random spacing
No colored text (unless required)
No mixed fonts
No hidden tables or broken images
2.4. No Filler or Padding
The following will be rejected:
Repeated pages used to increase page count
Unnecessary repetition to make the book look longer
Low-value content created to “bulk up” the manuscript
2.5. No Content Blocks That Waste Reader Time
Examples of wasteful blocks:
Pages filled with repeated quotes
Excessive line breaks
Bullet points stretched into full chapters without substance
Techgummy aims for quality, not page count.
3. Avoiding Disappointing Customer Experience
Global retailers (like Amazon) can remove books or suspend accounts if customers complain about poor quality. To avoid this, we enforce:
3.1. High Readability Standards
No:
Poor English
Confusing storytelling
Sudden topic shifts
Unclear explanations
Customers must enjoy what they read.
3.2. No Misleading Titles
Your book title must match the content.
For example:
A book titled “How to Start a Poultry Business” must teach poultry business, not general motivation.
A book titled “30-Day Fitness Plan” must contain a structured plan, not random health tips.
3.3. No Overpromising
Books must not make false or exaggerated claims such as:
“Earn ₦5m monthly guaranteed”
“Cure cancer instantly”
“Become a billionaire overnight”
Such claims trigger platform penalties.
3.4. Image & Diagram Quality
For non-fiction books, images must be:
Clear
Relevant
Legally owned
Not pixelated or distorted
No blurry charts or screenshots.
3.5. Consistency
Readers complain when:
Characters change names mid-story
Dates and facts contradict each other
Chapters feel disconnected
Techgummy reserves the right to request revisions.
