Minimum Article Requirements

Before submitting your article, please make sure it meets the following minimum requirements.

2,000+ Words

Articles must contain a minimum of 2,000 words.

We prefer comprehensive articles that explore a subject properly instead of short, surface-level content.

There is no strict maximum word count. Longer guides are welcome when the additional content provides genuine value.

Minimum 1 Image

Every article must include at least one relevant image.

You may include:

  • Original graphics

  • Screenshots

  • Charts

  • Diagrams

  • Infographics

  • Product screenshots

  • Illustrations

  • Licensed stock images

You must have permission to use every image submitted with your article.

Images should preferably be high-quality and suitable for web publication.


What Makes a Good Submission?

We prioritize articles that are:

Practical

Give readers strategies they can actually use.

Original

Bring your own experience, perspective, research, examples, or framework.

Detailed

Explain the subject properly instead of providing generic advice.

Well Structured

Use clear headings, subheadings, short paragraphs, examples, and lists where appropriate.

Professional

Write for professionals, founders, consultants, creators, marketers, and people actively building their careers or businesses.

Evidence-Based

Where appropriate, support important claims with credible sources, data, examples, or first-hand experience.


Content We Prefer

Articles with real-world insights perform best.

Instead of writing:

“10 Ways to Build Your Personal Brand”

consider something more specific such as:

“How Consultants Can Build a Personal Brand That Generates Inbound Leads”

or:

“How I Used LinkedIn Content to Build Authority in a New Industry”

or:

“A Practical AI Workflow for Turning Professional Experience Into LinkedIn Content”

Specific, actionable articles are more useful to our readers.


Original Content Only

Submitted content should be original.

Please do not submit:

  • Articles copied from another website

  • Spun or rewritten versions of existing articles

  • Plagiarized content

  • Automatically generated low-quality content

  • Content published on dozens of guest-post websites

  • Content created primarily for backlinks

You may use AI tools to help with research, editing, brainstorming, or writing assistance.

However, the final article must be accurate, useful, coherent, and reviewed by a human before submission.

You are responsible for verifying facts, statistics, quotations, links, and claims.


AI-Generated Content Policy

We are an AI-friendly publication, but we are not interested in low-value AI-generated articles.

Using AI is acceptable when it helps you create something better.

For example, you may use AI for:

  • Research assistance

  • Grammar correction

  • Article organization

  • Brainstorming

  • Editing

  • SEO optimization

  • Creating illustrations

  • Summarizing your own research

Articles that appear to be mass-generated solely for SEO or backlinks may be rejected.

AI assistance is welcome. AI spam is not.


External Links & Backlinks

Relevant external links are allowed when they genuinely improve the article.

You may include links to:

  • Your website

  • Your company

  • Your portfolio

  • Relevant research

  • Supporting resources

  • Tools mentioned naturally in the article

We reserve the right to edit, remove, replace, or apply appropriate link attributes to any link.

Links to unrelated websites or pages inserted purely for SEO may be rejected.


Promotional Content

Educational content should always come first.

An article should not read like an advertisement.

You may naturally mention your:

  • Product

  • Company

  • Service

  • Website

  • Newsletter

  • Research

  • Tool

when it is relevant to the article.

Articles written primarily to promote a product or company may require additional sponsorship or promotional fees.


Contributor Bio

Authors may submit a short contributor bio.

Recommended length:

50-100 words

Your bio may include:

  • Your name

  • Professional role

  • Company

  • Area of expertise

  • Website

  • LinkedIn profile

The final format may be adjusted to match our publication style.
