Who can guest blog?

Guidelines

I accept the following kinds of guest posts:

• Listicles focused on activities and foods: things to do in/things to see in/food hotspots/local dishes to try…
• City guides
• Packing tips
• Detailed posts about specific, preferably well-known attractions and sights

Guidelines:

• Posts should be at least 700 words long and must contain at least three images.
  Exception: Photo essays should contain at least 400 words and ten images.
  Exception: if you contribute a list post about attractions/places/…, all items listed should be accompanied by a photo.
• Every list post must include at least 5 items.
• Images need to comply with all copyright rules (creative commons is okay, but photos you took yourself are better).
• Images should be landscape orientated and 700 px wide.
• All submitted content must be unique and cannot be published elsewhere, nor in the past, nor in the future.
• All submitted posts should be written in grammatically correct English.
• Please include a bio at the bottom of the post with links to your blog and social media accounts (max three).
• Feel free to include two to three links to your own blog in the article where relevant.
• Feel free to include links to authorative sites to back up what you write. This does not include commercial sites.
• I reserve the right to add my own affiliate and internal links to the content.
• Send over your post in a Word file with photos attached separately or via WeTransfer. If the photos should be placed somewhere specific in the post, please indicate this in the Word file.
• I reserve the right to optimize your post to have it rank well in Google. This means I may slightly alter the text, subheadings, and title. I only do this to make sure your post will be seen by as many people as possible.

Attention all marketers, PR’s and brands: these guidelines do not apply to you. If you want to promote a brand, product or service, please read our Work with me page. Me rates are competitive and flexible, so please don’t try to fool me by offering “unique content in exchange for a link”.

What you get in return

• A short bio at the end of your post including links to your website and three social media accounts.
• Promotion of the article through my social media channels.
• The opportunity to introduce yourself to a new audience.

What I expect from you after publication

• You should promote the article through your social media channels.
• You should check back regularly to answer any comments on your post.
