What exactly is a next generation article submission directory? To be completely honest, it's a term we made up but it serves a real purpose. What else can you call something that doesn't exist elsewhere on the internet? We call FireBoss the next generation article submission directory because of the special features that we offer to give both our authors and producers.

FirePoints Rewards System
For most actions that authors can perform on our website, they will receive FirePoints. They are awarded for submitting articles to our directory, viewing articles, voting for articles, receiving votes on your articles and commenting on other authors' articles. FirePoints can be redeemed for rewards on our website and in our directory. Most noteworthy are the rewards of having a sticky category article (article that always stays at the top) or a front page sticky article.

Author Badges
As authors earn FirePoints on our website, they will be promoted to new Author ranks and receive a corresponding author badge. These author badges will be applied to your articles and their listings, allowing your rank to help your articles stand out from the crowd.

Webmaster and Publisher Benefits
Our special features are not only adapted for a unique author experience but they are also designed to benefit our content publishers as well. Our content publishers will be able to see how respected an author is without having to go through their history to find out. This will help publishers make better decisions in what content they choose to publish. We will be continuing to add filtering options for webmasters and publishers to use to automate their content filtering for them to ensure the highest quality articles without the countless hours worth of worth to create and maintain them.
