Every time Authors upload new products to the digital marketplace, they are due to a thorough review by the TemplateMonster team. Every week the review team releases 800-1000 items. The number of new releases will grow bigger in the nearest future.
TemplateMonster team carefully reviews every product to match the following criteria:
Product titles and URL addresses. Every item should feature a unique product name. An exception to the rule can be corporate themes where some product names can be repeated. The review team also checks where you host the Live Demo of your item. It shouldn’t be hosted on free hosting services like 000webhostapp.com, netlify.com. For example, you may host your website at https://whois.domaintools.com/. When checking item titles, we ensure they follow product naming guidelines.
Product uniqueness, which includes:
Product category and product type. Checking if the product images and files from the pack match the category chosen by an Author. We also ensure that the product archive is structured according to our guidelines.
Tags and features. The Review team checks if the chosen tags are relevant to the item, and the listed features are available in the product.
Image validity and product description. Images should be of high quality and not stretched. The product description should be unique and contain at least 256 characters.
Demo check. The demo should be relevant to the product that the Author uploaded for review. The Review Team may check the software if the demo doesn’t match the theme. Ir our iFrame or browser cannot display an HTTP domain, an Author may be asked to install HTTPS (SSL).
