Write for Us Dropshipping: Dropshipping Blog Guest Post Guidelines

Search dropshipping write for us and the results are mostly about the craft of writing for stores: product copy tips, how to write descriptions, a question about who can build a store, and a handful of contributor pages. The writers who'd be most useful, people who've run a store day to day, rarely get asked. This page asks them. Skip the dream of quitting your job. Tell me how you handled a fourteen day shipping window without losing the customer, and what you'd test differently next time.

My readers are small business owners and creators, and plenty of them run an online shop or are about to start one. They already read building a dropshipping business and my guide to launching a dropshipping store. They've heard the hype. What they need is the honest middle of the job, the part between the launch and the first happy repeat customer.

60-second dropshipping guest post check

A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:

• Have you run a dropshipping store or written product pages for one
• Is every claim something you've seen in your own store, with no promises about results
• Does your opening answer the reader's question in the first two lines
• Have you left out screenshots of sales figures and any get rich quick framing
• If you name a supplier or app, is it there to explain a point, not to promote it

Read the guidelines and submit your guest post.

How to submit

Send your pitch or draft through the contact form. Include the topic, the one specific problem the post solves, and a line on your first-hand experience with it. One idea per pitch works best. You will hear back on whether it is a fit before you write the full draft.

What a strong dropshipping pitch looks like

A weak pitch says "I want to write about how anyone can start a dropshipping business and quit their job in six months." A strong one says "I've run a home goods dropshipping store for two years, and I want to show how I test a product with a small batch of orders, the three questions I ask every new supplier, and the email I send when a parcel is running late." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.

The angles that get accepted fastest

• Testing a product idea with a handful of orders first
• Rewriting a supplier's product description so it reads like yours
• Three questions to ask a supplier before you list anything
• Telling customers about long shipping times without scaring them off
• A first store checklist that skips the extras
• Mistakes from a first year of dropshipping, owned and fixed
• Writing a returns policy customers trust
• Getting product photos right when the stock lives elsewhere

Frequently asked questions

Does Lilach Bullock accept dropshipping guest posts?

Yes. Dropshipping guest posts are welcome from store owners and ecommerce copywriters who've worked on dropshipping shops. We publish practical advice on products, suppliers, product pages and customer service, and decline get rich quick claims and supplier promotion.

What dropshipping topics do you accept?

Finding and testing products, writing product descriptions, choosing and vetting suppliers, handling shipping times and customer service, setting up a first store and the mistakes new dropshippers make. Your own store's experience is what makes a pitch stand out.

Can I pitch Shopify or wider online business topics here?

Store setup and app pitches suit the Shopify page, and broader pitches about running an online business or a small business have their own pages too. This page is for dropshipping and supplier fulfilled stores. Every pitch reaches the same editor either way.

How long should a guest post be?

Most accepted posts run between 1,200 and 2,000 words. Length matters less than usefulness: a tight 1,200 word post with one clear lesson beats a 3,000 word overview every time. Use short paragraphs, clear subheadings and at least one real example.

Can I include a link back to my own site?

One contextual link back to your own site is fine when it is relevant and helps the reader. Posts written purely to build a backlink with no real value for the reader are not published.

Do you accept previously published content?

No. Every submission must be original and not published anywhere else first, including your own blog, Medium, LinkedIn or a guest slot on another site. Republished or lightly reworded content gets declined, and we check before anything goes live.

Can I use AI tools to help write my guest post?

You can use AI to help with research or tidying your draft, but the experience, examples and opinions must be yours. Posts that read like generic AI output, with no first-hand detail, are declined.

Do you accept sponsored or commercial partnerships?

Commercial and partnership enquiries are handled separately from editorial guest posts. If you are a brand or agency wanting to work together rather than pitch an article, say so in the contact form and you will get the right details back.

How long does a decision take?

We aim to come back to you within a few working days. If the pitch is specific and clearly written, with the result in the first line, the decision is much faster.

Do you edit guest posts before they go live?

Yes. Every accepted post gets an editorial pass for clarity, structure and accuracy, and you may be asked for an extra example or a missing number. The aim is to make your piece as useful as it can be, not to change your voice.

Can I pitch more than one idea?

Yes, but send them one at a time or as a short numbered list with one line each. The strongest pitch goes first, and a single clear idea with a real result almost always beats several vague ones.

How do I submit a dropshipping guest post?

Send your pitch through the contact form with the topic, the specific result or lesson you will cover, and a line on your own experience running a dropshipping store or writing for ecommerce shops. One idea per pitch works best, and you will hear back before you write the full draft.
