Writer's Guidelines
Please follow these guidelines when writing your article. We reserve the right to reject and edit articles that don't meet these guidelines.
- Word count: 800-1,200 words
- Backlinks: We allow a maximum of three backlinks to your site as long as they are relevant to the article. We will remove all backlinks that aren't relevant to the context of the article and don't fit naturally.
- Citation: All statistics and facts must be backed up by outside sources with a backlink. This includes all statistics and data, uncommonly known terms, and other helpful information.
- Structure: Write for the web — break the article into different sections with H2s; use short, skimmable paragraphs and bulleted lists when relevant.
- Style: Please follow the Clever Style Guide. If you can't find it in our style guide, follow AP Style guidelines.
- No self-promotion: If you have relevant data, you may cite your company, but posts must not be self-promotional.
- Submission: Submit your article in a Google or Word document. Please include your author bio and headshot along with your article. Articles must be by a person, not company.
We run all articles through a plagiarism scanner. Your article must be original and not published elsewhere — even on your own site.
We edit articles in the order we receive them. Once you submit a guest post, we will edit it within 2 weeks. We may send it back to you if it needs additional work.
