Types of Content

We encourage diverse content types, including articles, essays, travelogues, personal experiences, interviews, and any other engaging forms which shed light on Italian culture.

Tone and Style

We appreciate a mix of styles in submissions, allowing authors to cater to readers from different backgrounds. Writers can adopt an informative, casual, or academic tone as long as the content remains engaging and respectful.

Formatting Guidelines

To maintain consistency, we recommend using Arial as the font and please submit your article with appropriate headings and subheadings. Include a brief author bio with each submission and any relevant links to personal websites or social media profiles.

Word Count

There are no strict word count limitations, but we recommend aiming for articles between 800 to 1500 words to ensure a comprehensive exploration of the topic. However, this is not a hard and fast rule, and we will consider longer or shorter pieces if the content justifies it.

Language and Translation

HoReCaN accept submissions in any international language or dialect. Authors are encouraged to include an English translation of the content for broader accessibility. We may explore the possibility of incorporating an optional auto-translator in the future.

Target Audience

Our audience consists of anyone passionate about Italian culture, including Italian nationals, their descendants, travellers, students, history enthusiasts, food lovers, and anyone curious about the rich heritage of Italy.

Multimedia Content

We strongly encourage the inclusion of multimedia elements such as images, videos, and interactive content to enhance the reader's experience. Please ensure you have the necessary rights or permissions for any media used.

External Links and Promotional Content

While promotional content and external links are generally discouraged, we understand that some references may be relevant and necessary. Please avoid overtly promotional material and ensure any external links are from reputable sources and add value to the content.

Copyright and Attribution

Authors retain full copyright of their submissions. By submitting content to our blog, authors grant HoReCaN non-exclusive permission to publish their work on our platform. Proper attribution will be provided to all authors, and we kindly ask that any previously published content be duly acknowledged.
