Word counts, links, turnaround, rejections and how to pitch — answered before you send a draft.
- Is this a free guest posting site?
- Yes. Submitting a guest post here costs nothing and always will on the standard tier. Articles are accepted on editorial merit — payment never buys approval. Paid tiers only buy speed and placement, never a decision.
- How do I submit a guest post?
- Fill in the form on this page: your name, email, the destination website, a title, a category, a short excerpt, a two-sentence author bio and your full draft. You get an emailed decision from a human editor within 48 business hours.
- How do I find free guest posting sites that are worth using?
- Check three things before you pitch anywhere: that the site publishes recent, human-written articles; that outbound links in existing posts are contextual rather than stuffed into footers; and that real readers arrive from search or a newsletter. Directories of 'free guest posting sites' are mostly link farms — a site that publishes anything will pass nothing on.
- What should a guest post pitch look like?
- Four short parts: the specific angle, why this audience needs it, what evidence or first-hand experience you bring, and the single link you want. Three worked examples appear above this FAQ — copy the structure and change the facts.
- How long should my guest post be?
- Between 800 and 2,500 words, with most accepted pieces landing at 1,200 to 2,000. Write the length the idea deserves; padding is the most common reason a promising draft gets a revision note.
- When will I hear back?
- A human editor reads every submission and replies by email within 48 business hours. Priority review returns a decision inside 24 hours.
- Can I include a link to my website?
- Yes — one contextual do-follow link inside the article, plus a byline link in your author bio. Any other outbound links are marked no-follow. No affiliate or redirect chains.
- Do you accept AI-generated content?
- AI-assisted drafts are fine when a human has verified, edited and grounded them in real experience or cited sources. Unedited model output is rejected: it repeats itself, invents statistics and adds nothing readers cannot get from a chatbot.
- Which categories can I write for?
- Business, technology, AI, marketing, finance, health and wellness, education, travel, pets, home, skincare, culture, lifestyle and sports. Gambling, adult, payday lending and unlicensed pharmaceutical content is never published.
- Do I need to send images?
- Optional. A cover image URL helps, but only if you hold the rights or it is properly licensed. We will source a suitable image if you do not have one.
- What gets a submission rejected?
- Duplicated or spun text, unverifiable statistics, more than one commercial link, keyword stuffing, no original insight, prohibited verticals, or promotional copy with no reader value.
- Can I resubmit after a rejection?
- Yes. Most rejections come with a reason, and a rewritten piece that fixes it is welcome. Resubmitting the same draft unchanged is not.
- Will my post stay live permanently?
- Yes. Published articles keep their URL indefinitely. We remove content only for legal reasons or a proven factual error, and we contact you first.
- Do I get an author profile?
- Yes. Every published contributor gets a public author page with a bio, links and a grid of their articles, which accumulates authority as you publish more.
- Can I suggest my own anchor text?
- You can suggest it, and editors adjust anchors that read as over-optimised. Test it in our anchor text checker before submitting to avoid a revision round.
- How often can I contribute?
- Roughly one article per destination domain per month, so the referring pattern stays natural. Frequent contributors get faster reviews as their track record builds.
- Do you edit my writing?
- Editors correct clarity, accuracy, structure and house style. Substantive changes to your argument are raised with you rather than made silently.
- What if I want the article written for me?
- That is a paid add-on under our guest blogging services: send the topic and destination URL and a writer produces a researched draft for your approval before review.
- Is guest posting still worth doing?
- Yes, for the combination it produces: a relevant referring domain, a branded mention search and AI systems can cite, and readers who actually click. The citation value now matters as much as the link.
- How do I get published faster?
- Send a finished, proofread draft with one clear link and a real angle, choose the right category, and follow the pitch structure above. Priority review at $49 shortens the decision to 24 hours.
