Home » Guest Post Guidelines
Hi there! Have an idea for a guest post on LizLockard.com? I’d love to hear it!
A few useful tidbits:
- I write for the non-techie small business owner (less than 10 employees) who wants to learn more about how to grow their business online
- Posts are very actionable or how-to oriented, backed-up with screenshots or stats where appropriate
- Average post length is 700 words. Anywhere from 600-800 is acceptable though – avoid stuffing with fluff for word count – these are just guidelines!
- Accepted posts will be published on my blog with your headshot & author bio with a link back to your site; links tweeted and posted on Facebook, as well as shared in my weekly newsletter (yay!)
A few caveats:
- Original content only please – it’s okay if you’re written on the topic before, but the article you submit should be a new twist/original words
- I’ll own the content when it’s published; you’re welcome to post a summary/intro with a link to your post on your own blog, but republishing the actual piece is a no-go (Google doesn’t like it!)
How to submit…
Use the form below to submit your proposed idea, be sure to include:
- Proposed headline and a few sentences describing the potential article
- Link to a writing sample
You’ll hear back from me within 2 weeks if it’s a good fit. If you don’t, feel free to submit your idea elsewhere!
Comments or questions are welcome.
