Write for Us Affiliate Marketing: Affiliate Marketing Blog Guest Post Guidelines
Yes, affiliate marketing guest posts are accepted on this blog. The ideal writer is a marketer, publisher or founder who has run or grown an affiliate programme or channel and can show the numbers. We decline get rich quick posts, and content written to promote one network or offer.
Affiliate content is either hype or a list of networks. What this blog wants is a real account of building an affiliate channel, the offer, the traffic, the conversion and what it took to keep it clean and compliant.
My readers run marketing or publish content and want a channel that pays without wrecking trust. They want the mechanics and the numbers, so an affiliate post has to teach from a real programme, not a pitch.
60-second affiliate marketing guest post check
A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:
- Have you run the affiliate work you describe
- Do you have a conversion rate, a payout or a result
- Does your opening answer the reader's question straight away
- Have you removed any pitch for a network or offer
- Could a marketer act on your post this week
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 affiliate marketing pitch looks like
A weak pitch says "I want to write about the best affiliate programmes to make passive income." A strong one says "We moved our affiliate content from list posts to one deep comparison per category and conversion on that traffic doubled, so I want to show the page structure and the disclosure line that kept trust." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.
The angles that get accepted fastest
- Building a programme with early numbers
- Content that converted affiliate traffic
- Recruiting affiliates who performed
- A move a publisher could copy this week
- A contrarian view on affiliate list posts

Frequently asked questions
Does Lilach Bullock accept affiliate marketing guest posts?
Yes. Affiliate Marketing guest posts are welcome from a marketer, publisher or founders and similar writers who have done the work and can share what happened. We publish practical articles with real examples and decline get rich quick posts.
What affiliate marketing topics do you accept?
We accept building affiliate programmes, content that converts affiliate traffic, recruiting and keeping affiliates, payout changes, honest disclosure, and affiliate attribution. The common thread is a specific lesson with a result attached, not a general overview of affiliate marketing.
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 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 under a different name. Republished or lightly reworded content gets declined, and we check before it goes live.
How do I submit an affiliate marketing 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 doing the work you are writing about. One idea per pitch works best, and you will hear back before writing a full draft.
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 should an affiliate marketing guest post be?
There is no fixed word count, but posts that do well here usually run from 1,000 to 1,800 words. Long enough to show the example and the numbers, short enough that a busy owner finishes it. Cut anything that repeats what the reader already knows.
What makes an affiliate marketing pitch stand out?
A real result in the first sentence. Say what you did, what changed and over what period, then say what the reader will be able to copy. For example: We moved our affiliate content from list posts to one deep comparison per category and conversion on that traffic doubled, so I want to show the page structure and the disclosure line that kept trust.
