Write for Us CBD: CBD Blog Guest Post Guidelines
Yes, CBD guest posts are accepted on this blog. The ideal writer is a CBD brand founder, retailer, product developer, compliance specialist or marketer in the CBD and hemp industry who can share a business lesson from real experience. We decline medical or cure claims, content aimed at under 18s, posts that ignore local rules and articles written only to sell one product.
Most CBD pitches make health promises or read like a product page. What this blog wants is the business view: how a CBD brand built trust in a crowded market, how a retailer handled labelling and testing, how a founder marketed within advertising rules, and what other business owners in regulated markets can learn from it.
My readers are business owners, founders and marketers, including people building brands in regulated and wellness markets. They already read my guides to marketing a cannabis related business and choosing supplements. A CBD post has to help them build or run a CBD business responsibly.
60-second CBD guest post check
A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:
- Have you built, sold, tested or marketed CBD products yourself
- Can you share a real business example from your own work
- Does your opening answer the reader's question in the first two lines
- Have you avoided medical, cure or guaranteed result claims
- Have you removed any sales pitch for one brand or product
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 CBD pitch looks like
A weak pitch says "I want to write about how CBD can fix everything from sleep to stress." A strong one says "I run a small CBD brand and I want to show how we rebuilt our labels and product pages around third party lab results, and what happened to returns and repeat orders after." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.

Frequently asked questions
Does Lilach Bullock accept CBD guest posts?
Yes. CBD guest posts are welcome from brand founders, retailers, product developers, compliance specialists and marketers who can share real business experience. We publish responsible business articles and decline medical claims.
What CBD topics do you accept?
Brand building, testing and labelling, compliance, marketing within the rules, retail and wholesale, sourcing and product development, and customer education. The common thread is a real business lesson.
Do you accept wellness and vape guest posts too?
Yes. Wider wellness and vape pitches suit those pages better, but every pitch reaches the same editor and the same responsible standards apply.
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 CBD 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 building or running a CBD business. One idea per pitch works best, and you will hear back before you write the full draft.
