Guest posting is an excellent way to gain visibility, share your expertise, and build backlinks, especially in competitive fields like web hosting, SEO, and SaaS. We welcome high-quality guest post submissions from writers and professionals who bring fresh insights to our audience. However, to ensure our readers get real value from the content, we have established some guidelines and requirements for all guest post submissions. Here’s how you can submit a guest post and what it takes to get your article accepted.
How You Can Submit a Free Guest Post
To submit a guest post, start by reaching out with a topic pitch. Our editorial team will review your proposal to ensure it aligns with our content needs and meets our quality standards. Once your pitch is approved, you can move forward with writing the article. All articles should be submitted in a Word or Google Doc format, with clear formatting and structure.
Please note: while we welcome a variety of topics, we only accept articles that are relevant to our site and audience. We do not accept posts that are solely promotional in nature or that focus directly on a single company’s discounts, products, or services. For example, an article like “ Best web hosting services with discount deals ” is more likely to be accepted, as it provides unbiased information and benefits our readers.
Our review process includes checks for quality, relevance, originality, and adherence to our guidelines. Approved articles will typically be published within a week of final edits and approval.
Guest Post Requirements
- Word Count: Articles should be a minimum of 2,000 words. We value detailed, informative, and well-researched content that gives readers practical takeaways and insights.
- Non-Promotional Content: We don’t accept articles that are directly related to promoting a specific company, product, or service. For example, posts like “ABC-D Hosting is Offering 20% Discount” or “XYZ Company’s Huge SEO Discount” won’t be accepted. Instead, focus on topics that inform or guide readers without centering around a single brand’s sales pitch.
- Topics We Accept:
- Web Hosting: This can include anything from comparisons of web hosting services, tips on choosing the best web host, hosting security, or the latest trends in web hosting.
- SEO (Search Engine Optimization): Topics like SEO strategies, keyword research, link-building techniques, and trends in search engine optimization are highly encouraged.
- Email Marketing: Insights into email marketing tools, strategies, engagement techniques, and the latest trends in email marketing are welcome.
- SaaS (Software as a Service): Articles on SaaS applications, best tools for businesses, SaaS trends, and benefits of SaaS for different industries are suitable.
- CDN (Content Delivery Network): Posts about CDN benefits, how CDNs work, CDN comparisons, or the latest in CDN technology are ideal.
- Software Related to Website Hosting: We also accept posts on website hosting software, such as content management systems (CMS), website builders, and other tools related to web hosting.
- Backlink Policy: We allow one dofollow link per article of 2,000 words. This link should be placed naturally within the content, leading readers to further information or resources relevant to the topic. Excessive linking or linking to irrelevant sites will lead to rejection.
- Original Content: All submissions must be original and not previously published on any other website, including your own. We run plagiarism checks to ensure each post is unique.
- Quality Standards: Articles should be well-written, informative, and free of grammatical errors. We aim to publish pieces that are educational, engaging, and offer a unique perspective.
Formatting Tips
- Introduction: Start with a compelling intro that explains what the article is about and why it matters.
- Headings and Subheadings: Use headers to organize content for readability.
- Bullet Points and Lists: Lists and bullet points can break up text and make key points easier to absorb.
- Conclusion: Summarize the article’s key takeaways and encourage readers to take action, explore further, or consider the information provided.
Submission Process
To submit your guest post, email us with your topic pitch, a brief outline, and any writing samples that showcase your experience in the categories we cover. After your topic is approved, you can write the article according to the guidelines above and submit the final draft for review.
Please remember, our acceptance of a topic pitch does not guarantee publication. The quality, originality, and relevance of your completed article will ultimately determine whether it makes it onto our site.
