Technical Details

To make sure that your guest post gets past our editorial team, here are some technical details you must remember while writing your content piece:

• Minimum length: 2000 words
• Use Google Docs to share your article. Please set the font to Arial 12pt
• All facts should be linked to a proper and credible source
• Brand links: Up to two (02) no-follow links to your brand/product pages allowed

The Process of Contributing Guest Posts

Our three-step process of pitching, accepting and publishing guest posts is designed to help you create content that adds value for our readers.

Before You Start

Drop us an email or a message to pitch your topic for the guest post. Include a brief outline and ideas that your post would cover.

Once the topic gets approved, share the structure (Table of Contents), so that both you and we are on the same page about the central idea and the flow of the guest post.

Note: We understand that the idea of publishing guest posts on our blog is to get a worthy link. However, we reserve the right to reject all posts that are created SOLELY to get the link, and do not offer any value to our readers.

While You Are Writing

Once the topic and the structure (Table of Contents) gets approved, you can start writing the post. While you are at it, remember the following points:

• The content should be unique, original, and useful for our audience
• It must not be published at any other website already
• If you have included a quote or reference from a third-party website, don’t forget to credit the original author
• Remember that the acceptable length of the guest post is 2000 words
• Use storytelling technique(s) to capture the interest of the readers
• Use a grammar and spelling checker to remove language errors

When You are Done

Go through your work to ensure that you have covered all the points mentioned in the Table of Contents.

Your bio should be 30 words long, and can contain a single link to your brand. If you wish, you can include a Twitter handle of your choice.

If your post has images, put all the images in a folder, and attach it to your email as a zip file.

Our publication queue is usually a bit busy, so it might take around 7-10 days for your post to go through our editorial cycle. During the process, we reserve the right to edit your content for clarity and readability. Similarly, we can add or remove internal and external links to add value for our audience.

We look forward to reading your guest post, and publishing some great articles on our blog!
