Write for Us Kitchen: Kitchen Blog Guest Post Guidelines

Most kitchen pitches are photo captions for a showroom. What this blog wants is the working view: how a fitter planned a small kitchen so it works for a busy family, how a restaurant owner laid out a line that cut wasted steps, how a designer talks a client out of a layout that looks good and works badly.

My readers are business owners, founders and freelancers, and plenty of them run kitchens, from home offices with a coffee corner to cafes and restaurants. They already read my guides to modern kitchen design trends and AI tools restaurants use to handle bookings. A kitchen post has to help them plan, build or run a kitchen better.

60-second kitchen guest post check

A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:

• Do you design, fit, supply or run kitchens yourself
• Can you share a real project with what changed and why
• Does your opening answer the reader's question in the first two lines
• Would a homeowner or restaurant owner know what to do after reading it
• Have you removed any sales pitch for one brand, range or showroom

Read the guidelines and submit your guest post.

What we publish

• Planning a kitchen layout that works, from people who fit them
• Commercial kitchens: flow, safety and keeping a small team fast
• Appliances compared on how they perform, not how they look
• Running a kitchen business: showroom, fitting or design studio
• Storage and small kitchen fixes that hold up in daily use
• Materials and finishes explained for non experts
• Energy and waste in a working kitchen
• Marketing a kitchen company, from someone who did it

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

What we look for in kitchen posts

These are the kitchen topics that land, and the version of each that gets turned down.

Topic	What gets accepted	What gets declined
Layout	A real plan, the problem it solved and what you'd change	A gallery of photos with captions
Commercial kitchens	How a team works faster or safer after a change	General hygiene rules copied from guidance
Appliances	How they performed in daily use over time	A list of models from one brand
Running the business	How you win and keep clients as a designer or fitter	An advert for your showroom
Materials	What lasts, what scratches and why	Trend words with no practical detail

What we don't accept

• Catalogue copy or product descriptions dressed up as advice
• Trend round ups with nothing new or tested
• Posts written to sell one brand, range or showroom
• Thin posts under 800 words with no first hand experience
• 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 kitchen pitch looks like

A weak pitch says "I want to write about the top kitchen trends this year." A strong one says "I fit kitchens in narrow terraced houses, and I want to show the three layout changes that made the biggest difference for families, with before and after plans and the one idea clients always regret." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.

The angles that get accepted fastest

• Small kitchen layouts that work for real families
• How a restaurant cut wasted steps on the line
• What a fitter checks before quoting a job
• Appliances that deserve their space and ones that don't
• Marketing a kitchen showroom online
• Choosing worktops that survive daily use
• Cutting energy use in a busy commercial kitchen
• What running a kitchen business taught you about clients

Frequently asked questions

Does Lilach Bullock accept kitchen guest posts?

Yes. Kitchen guest posts are welcome from designers, fitters, appliance specialists, chefs and restaurant owners who can share real projects. We publish practical articles and decline catalogue copy and brand promotion.

What kitchen topics do you accept?

Kitchen layout and planning, commercial kitchens, appliances tested in daily use, running a kitchen business, storage, materials, and energy and waste. The common thread is a real lesson from planning, building or running a kitchen.

Do you accept home improvement guest posts too?

Yes. Wider renovation pitches suit the home improvement page better, but every pitch reaches the same editor and the same 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 kitchen 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 designing, fitting or running kitchens. One idea per pitch works best, and you will hear back before you write the full draft.
