Yes, this blog accepts home and interiors guest posts, but about the business behind them. Readers run home services, trades, interiors and property businesses. The accepted pieces cover getting found locally, pricing jobs, and building a brand that charges more than the cheapest quote. Mood boards and decor round-ups get declined. Pitch a real story about winning or pricing work, not a styling trend.
Home and interiors content is full of mood boards and very short on business reality. If you run a home services business, an interiors brand, or market property, our readers want the part everyone else leaves out.
I'm Lilach Bullock. This blog reaches business owners, marketers and agencies. Plenty of them run home services, trades, interiors and property businesses. They care about getting found locally, pricing jobs and building a brand that charges more than the cheapest quote.
What We're Looking For
Content that helps a business owner make a decision they will not regret:
- How a home services business actually gets leads
- Local marketing and local SEO for trades and home businesses
- Building an interiors or homeware brand, with the numbers
- Property and estate agency marketing that works
- Pricing home service jobs without racing to the bottom
- Reviews and reputation for a business people invite into their house
- Working from home and running a business from home, done properly
Real jobs, real quotes, real lead sources. Mood boards are not a business case.
Also accepting guest posts on small business and digital marketing.
What We Don't Accept
- Vendor marketing with a byline on it
- Content published elsewhere
- Affiliate round-ups with no real testing behind them
- Anything written purely for a link, with no value to the reader
What You Get
- Exposure to an engaged audience of business owners and marketers
- A quality backlink from an established domain
- Author bio with a link back to your website
- Social media promotion across our channels
How to Submit
All guest post submissions go through our main submission page. Please read the full guidelines first:
If you would like to reach a broader marketing audience, you can also write for us, or see the full list of blogs that accept guest posts.
What a strong home pitch looks like
The pitches that get accepted here come from people who have actually done the thing, not people summarising what other people have written about it.
A weak pitch says "I would like to write about interior design trends." A strong one says "I run a kitchen fitting business. I stopped bidding on price, raised quotes by 25 percent, and lost fewer jobs than I expected. Here is the data." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.
The angles that get accepted fastest
- A real lead source that worked for a home services business
- Raising prices in a trade where everyone competes on cost
- Local SEO that actually filled a diary
- Building a homeware brand from a spare room to real revenue
- How reviews changed the economics of a home services business
Two free tools that save time here: the write for us finder lists more sites accepting guest posts in any niche, and the free backlink checker lets you check a site's authority before you write for it.
Writing on a different subject? The write for us hub lists every topic this blog takes guest posts on.
Want AI doing the heavy lifting in your marketing?
I build the systems that handle the boring 80 percent, so you get your week back. Done properly, with the human kept in.
Home Decor Write for Us: What We Accept
Home decor write for us pitches are welcome here, alongside the home improvement and interiors posts this page already covers. I'm looking for decor, styling and interior design pieces with a real project behind them: a rental living room restyled on a small budget, a showroom that changed how it displays stock, a decor shop that grew its online sales, or an interior designer who changed how they win clients. Show the before and after, how long it took and what you'd do differently next time. Mood boards with no story, trend round ups copied from other sites and posts built around one retailer's product range are declined. Send a title, three bullet points and one line on the work you've done, and you'll hear back before you write the full draft.
Frequently asked questions
How long should a guest post be?
Long enough to answer the question properly and no longer. In practice that is usually 1,200 to 2,000 words. Depth matters far more than word count.
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, that decision is much faster.
Can I include a backlink?
One contextual backlink to your own site or a relevant resource is fine in an editorial post. More than that reads as link-driven rather than reader-driven.
For the bigger picture, see my full guide to content marketing.
