Write for Us Personal Finance: Personal Finance Blog Guest Post Guidelines

Yes, personal finance guest posts are accepted on this blog. The ideal writer is a financial planner, accountant, money coach or person with real experience managing money through self employment or a big life change. We decline get rich quick posts and investment tips dressed up as advice, and articles written only to promote one app or product.

Personal finance content is full of hot takes and product tables. What this blog wants is honest experience: how someone got control of irregular income, cleared debt, or planned for a big change, told plainly with what worked and what did not.

My readers run small businesses and freelance careers, so their money rarely arrives on the same day each month. A personal finance post has to be practical for irregular income and say clearly when to get regulated advice.

60-second personal finance guest post check

A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:

  • Are you writing from real experience or professional practice
  • Do you have a real example or result
  • Does your opening answer the reader's question straight away
  • Have you said when the reader should get regulated advice

Read the guidelines and submit your guest post.

What we publish

  • Managing irregular freelance or business income, with your real system
  • Paying off debt while self employed, step by step
  • Planning for a big life change, from a real example
  • Separating business and personal money, and what it fixed
  • Money habits that reduced stress, with the before and after

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

What we don't accept

  • Get rich quick posts and hot investment tips
  • Promotion of one app, provider or product
  • Posts that give regulated advice without saying so
  • 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 personal finance pitch looks like

A weak pitch says "I want to write about ten ways to save money." A strong one says "I stopped panicking in quiet freelance months by paying myself the same amount every month from a separate holding account, so I want to show how I set the number and what happened in my worst month." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.

The angles that get accepted fastest

  • Irregular income made steady
  • Clearing debt while self employed
  • Planning for a big change
  • Splitting business and personal money
  • A contrarian view on money apps

Frequently asked questions

Does Lilach Bullock accept personal finance guest posts?

Yes. Personal Finance 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 get rich quick posts and investment tips dressed up as advice.

What personal finance topics do you accept?

We accept money for freelancers and small business owners, irregular income, debt, saving and planning, separating business and personal finances, and money habits. 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 personal finance 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 personal finance 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 personal finance 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: I stopped panicking in quiet freelance months by paying myself the same amount every month from a separate holding account, so I want to show how I set the number and what happened in my worst month.
