Write for Us Cleaning: Cleaning Blog Guest Post Guidelines

Yes, cleaning guest posts are accepted on this blog. The ideal writer is a cleaning business owner, commercial cleaning manager, janitorial contractor, cleaning franchise operator or trades marketer who has done the work and can show what happened. We decline basic cleaning hacks with no business lesson, and articles written only to promote one product, brand or company.

Cleaning content online is mostly how to remove a stain. What this blog wants is the business side: how a cleaning company went from one person to a team, how jobs get priced and booked, what brought in contracts, told by someone in the trade.

My readers run small businesses, and a lot of them are service and trades businesses or sell to them. They want more jobs, better customers and less time chasing invoices, so a cleaning post has to come from someone who has done it.

60-second cleaning guest post check

A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:

  • Do you work in or run the cleaning business you describe
  • Do you have a real job count, contract figure or result
  • Does your opening answer the reader's question straight away
  • Have you removed any pitch for one company

Read the guidelines and submit your guest post.

What we publish

  • Growing a cleaning business from solo to a team, with the numbers
  • Winning commercial or recurring contracts, with what it took
  • Pricing cleaning jobs so they pay, with what you changed
  • Reviews, referrals and repeat bookings, with the system you use
  • Hiring and keeping cleaners, with what went right and wrong

If your post could be published on any cleaning site with the logo swapped, it is not for us.

What we don't accept

  • Basic cleaning hacks with no business lesson
  • Promotion of one product, brand or company
  • Generic small business tips with a cleaning label
  • Previously published posts republished from another site

What you get

  • Your article in front of an engaged audience of business owners, marketers and founders
  • One relevant, contextual link back to your own site
  • A byline and the credibility of an established, high-traffic blog
  • Editorial help to make the piece as strong as it can be before it goes live

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 cleaning pitch looks like

A weak pitch says "I want to write about ten cleaning hacks every home needs." A strong one says "We moved half our one off house cleans onto fortnightly plans in six months by offering a fixed price after the first clean, so I want to show the offer, the conversion rate and what it did to our monthly revenue." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.

The angles that get accepted fastest

  • Going from solo to a team
  • Winning commercial contracts
  • Pricing cleaning jobs
  • Turning one off cleans into recurring work
  • A contrarian view on booking apps

Frequently asked questions

Does Lilach Bullock accept cleaning guest posts?

Yes. Cleaning guest posts are welcome from writers who have done the work and can share what happened. We publish practical articles with real examples and decline basic cleaning hacks with no business lesson.

What cleaning topics do you accept?

We accept growing a cleaning business, commercial and recurring contracts, pricing and quoting, reviews and repeat bookings, and hiring cleaners. The common thread is a specific lesson with a result attached, not a general overview.

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 a cleaning 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 a cleaning 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 a cleaning 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 half our one off house cleans onto fortnightly plans in six months by offering a fixed price after the first clean, so I want to show the offer, the conversion rate and what it did to our monthly revenue.
