Guest Posts

If you are a blogger and think you have an idea or article worth sharing here, please send me an email after reading through the guidelines below.

Guest Post Guidelines - This is our recipe for success!

I don’t offer payment for posts. Guest posts are only offered to other bloggers and small business owners, not freelance writers for SEO businesses or companies.

I'm happy to publish all well written and in-depth content on subjects that benefits the readers. The subject matter must fit the theme of this website. 

I believe Guest Posts are a give and take, 2-way relationship. 


Following these guidelines makes the post more valuable for both us.

  • Attention to detail, always!
  • The word count must be AROUND 1000 words, shorter texts will not be published.
  • The content must be valuable to the readers. This means that it must be detailed and coherent with the theme of this site. Start with a catchy introduction and use subheadings, and include bullet lists when appropriate for enhanced readability.
  • The content must be unique. It cannot have been published anywhere else on the internet, including your own site or blog. We use Copyscape to check this.
  • Please proof read and spell-check your content. I reserve the right to edit content before it's published, particularly for spelling and grammatical errors. If there are a lot of errors, I may send it back to you to edit again before being published.
  • I can include a Bio at the bottom of your post with a link back to your site. Your Bio should be around 40 words, and one link with anchor text of your choice is allowed. This link will be dofollow, and can lead only to a blog or site you own. Affiliate links are not allowed.
  • The post must contain 2 or more links to authoritative, high quality and relevant sites. These links should benefit the readers.
  • Once the post is published, the rights to the content in the post is owned by Coaching With Sharon Mary and I retain full copyright on all material published on the site.
  • I will promote the post on the social media I am using at the time. It would be great if you could share the post to your communities as well.
  • I'm sure that anyone who leaves a good comment would love to hear your answers as well as ours, so we ask that anytime someone comments on the post you have written, you also respond to the comment.

How to Submit your Guest Post

  • Send your idea to support {at} coachingwithsharonmary.com. 
  • I'll ask you to share it as a Google doc if possible.
  • Please understand and don't be upset if I do some minor editing to the content if I believe it will create greater clarity.
  • Any images you'd like to have included must be your own, or from a Free Image site such as Pixabay.com or RawPixel.com. Images can be sent either as attachments or by providing a URL to the image.
  • Please email me directly at support {at} coachingwithsharonmary.com if you have any further questions. 

This website is about providing valuable and helpful information for everyone looking at starting an online business. 

I look forward to hearing from you.

Sharon
