If you want to write for the SEOArmy blog, you’ve come to the right place! Here, you’ll find everything you need to know to write for us including our topic requirements, submission guidelines, and what happens after your guest post is accepted for publication.
At the SEOArmy blog, we focus on publishing high-quality content that explains the intricacies and actionable best practices for a number of SEO and content marketing avenues. These include:
If you wish to submit content that falls into any of these categories, please fill out the form below to pitch your ideas.
Once any of your ideas is approved, you may start working on your article, following the submission guidelines below.
We have a number of specific guidelines that all writers must follow if they want to publish their content on our site. By adhering to these standards, you give your guest post its best chance at publication.
Relevant images, such as charts, graphs, and infographics are a must in your guest post. They help break up content for our readers and can clarify points in an interesting way. Additionally, graphs and charts can help illustrate statics, percentages, and other values in a more digestible way. Make sure to include at least two relevant images in your draft.
People enjoy consuming content that is created by other humans rather than AI (artificial intelligence), so make sure that you draft content that doesn’t sound mechanical or stuffy. We want to promote a fresh, approachable tone in our content, so make sure that your piece delivers the right tone.
We do not accept content that has been previously published elsewhere, nor do we accept content that is not your original work. Make sure that you avoid plagiarism in any form and only submit your own content.
Note that images you use may appear elsewhere online, but you must clearly link their source in the image captions.
You must write your article from an objective point of view. This helps to convey the most valuable, practical, and actionable content to our readers so that they can reap the most benefit. Articles that are more subjective can come across as pushy and less trustworthy which hurts our company’s authority online.
When you submit an article, make sure that you send it as a Google Doc link with editing access. Do not send it as a PDF or within the body of an email.
Guest posts submitted to SEOArmy should be between 800-1200 words. If you need a higher word count to fully articulate your point, you may submit longer pieces but note that they may be disregarded if they are too long.
At the end of each article you submit, make sure to include a conclusion section that provides the audience with clear takeaways. This helps to clarify any points that you’ve already made in the article and reiterate them.
You can include up to three links within your guest post. Make sure to avoid salesy and promotional landing pages. Instead, link to authoritative and actionable content that expands on the topic at hand.
Once your article is submitted, it will be reviewed by our editing team. Please note that If you fail to adhere to any of our guidelines, you will likely not hear back from us.
Approved articles may be edited for clarity, correctness, and brevity so that they fit within the SEOArmy standards. Additionally, we will likely change your headline, so you may want to include a few alternative options if you have a specific vision for the piece.
Concerning copyright, SEOArmy will retain the copyright for any guest post you submit. This means that you can’t republish any article you submit to us on any other site after it’s submitted.
Finally, note that we do not offer compensation of any kind to guest contributors for any material you publish on our site.
