Write for Us Inbound Marketing: Inbound Marketing Blog Guest Post Guidelines

Inbound marketing advice often stops at the diagram. What this blog wants is what happened when you ran it: the content that pulled leads in, the offer that converted, the nurture that closed, and the parts that flopped.

My readers run small businesses and marketing teams. They want customers who find them instead of the other way round, so an inbound post has to show a real programme, how much time it took, and what came back.

60-second inbound marketing guest post check

A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:

• Have you run the inbound programme you describe
• Do you have real numbers, leads, calls or customers
• Does your opening answer the reader's question straight away
• Have you removed any pitch for one platform

Read the guidelines and submit your guest post.

What we publish

• An inbound campaign from first post to closed customer, with the numbers
• A lead magnet that worked, and one that did not
• How a small team built inbound with no agency
• Nurture emails that moved leads to a call, with examples
• Measuring inbound so the business owner believes the results

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

What we don't accept

• Funnel theory with no campaign behind it
• Promotion of one marketing platform or agency
• Generic inbound tips anyone could write
• 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 inbound marketing pitch looks like

A weak pitch says "I want to write about why inbound marketing beats outbound." A strong one says "One checklist download brought a two person agency forty qualified leads in a quarter, so I want to show the checklist, the landing page and the three emails that turned readers into calls." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.

The angles that get accepted fastest

• A campaign from first post to customer
• The lead magnet that worked
• Inbound on a small team
• Nurture emails that booked calls
• A contrarian view on gated content

Frequently asked questions

Does Lilach Bullock accept inbound marketing guest posts?

Yes. Inbound Marketing 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 funnel theory with no real campaign behind it.

What inbound marketing topics do you accept?

We accept inbound strategy, content that brings leads, lead magnets and landing pages, email nurture, measuring inbound results, and inbound for small teams. 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 an inbound 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 inbound 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 inbound 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: One checklist download brought a two person agency forty qualified leads in a quarter, so I want to show the checklist, the landing page and the three emails that turned readers into calls.
