Write for Us Ecommerce: Ecommerce Blog Guest Post Guidelines
Yes, ecommerce guest posts are accepted on this blog. The ideal writer is a store owner, ecommerce manager, marketplace seller or agency operator who has run the store or the campaign they are writing about. We decline dropshipping success stories with no numbers, and anything written to push a single app, supplier or theme.
Most ecommerce pitches repeat the same advice: optimise your product pages, reduce cart abandonment, use social proof. A store owner has read it a hundred times. What this blog wants instead is one change you made in a real store, to the product page, the checkout, the email flow or the ad account, and what it did to conversion rate, order value or repeat purchases.
I've worked with online stores for years and I test the tools they run on, from email platforms to review apps. My readers are owners and marketers who want to know what is worth their time. They read this blog for methods they can copy into their own store, so the post has to show the store and the result.
60-second ecommerce guest post check
A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:
- Have you run the store or the campaign you are describing
- Do you have a number: conversion rate, order value, revenue or return
- Does your opening answer the reader's question straight away
- Have you removed any pitch for an app, a supplier or a course
- Could a store owner act on it 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 ecommerce pitch looks like
A weak pitch says "I want to write about how to increase sales in your online store." A strong one says "We moved the delivery date above the add to basket button and conversion went from 1.9 to 2.6 percent in six weeks, and I want to show the test and the two versions that lost." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.
The angles that get accepted fastest
- A test you ran with the winning and losing versions
- An email or SMS flow with its revenue per send
- A platform or app switch and how long it took
- A method another store owner could copy this week
- A contrarian view on a popular ecommerce tactic

Frequently asked questions
Does Lilach Bullock accept ecommerce guest posts?
Yes. Ecommerce guest posts are welcome from a store owner, ecommerce manager, marketplace seller or agency operators and similar writers who have done the work and can share what happened. We publish practical articles with real examples and decline dropshipping success stories with no numbers.
What ecommerce topics do you accept?
We accept conversion testing, email and SMS flows, platform migrations, AI for product content and support, reviews, marketplace selling, ads for small stores, and repeat purchase tactics. The common thread is a specific lesson with a result attached, not a general overview of ecommerce.
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 ecommerce 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 ecommerce 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 ecommerce 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 the delivery date above the add to basket button and conversion went from 1.9 to 2.6 percent in six weeks, and I want to show the test and the two versions that lost.
