Giving accurate coordinates to finders on your geocaches is important. How do you do this?

Permissions
Some geocaches require landowner's permission, How will I know if I need this? How do I get it?

Cache Page
How to format (make it look pretty), what need's to be on the page, adding images, links etc.

Submitting for Review
Reviewers they're a friendly bunch, but what do they need to know? What will they challenge?
