Yes, this blog accepts SEO guest posts, and SEO is its single most requested topic. Readers are business owners, marketers and agencies really doing the work. The pitches that get accepted carry real data: a ranking recovery with before and after numbers, a technical fix that moved something measurable. Rehashed best-practice posts get declined. Pitch one real result with the figures attached.

SEO is the single most requested topic on this blog, and our readers are the people actually doing it: business owners trying to rank, marketers running campaigns, and agencies delivering for clients. If you know SEO properly and can write about it without the fluff, we want to hear from you.
Short answer: yes, this blog accepts SEO guest posts, and the pitches that get accepted are the ones carrying real data. A ranking recovery with the before and after numbers, a technical fix that moved something measurable, or an honest tool comparison will get read. A general explainer about what SEO is will not. One contextual link back to your own site is fine.
I’m Lilach Bullock. This blog has been publishing SEO and digital marketing content since the dial-up days, and our audience comes here for things they can use the same day. They are not looking for another “what is a backlink” explainer. They want the specific thing that worked for you, with the numbers attached.
What We’re Looking For
We publish SEO content that helps readers get real results. That includes:
- Technical SEO: crawling, indexation, Core Web Vitals, site architecture
- Keyword research and search intent, including how you actually pick what to target
- On-page SEO and content optimisation that survives an algorithm update
- Link building that does not get you penalised
- Local SEO and Google Business Profile
- SEO tool guides and honest comparisons
- AI search, AI Overviews, and getting cited by ChatGPT and Perplexity
- Ecommerce and SaaS SEO
- SEO reporting: what to measure and what to ignore
What performs best here is specific and practical. Case studies with real numbers, step-by-step walkthroughs, tool comparisons, and frameworks readers can copy. General advice does not land with this audience.
Also accepting guest posts on technology and AI.
What We Don’t Accept
- Beginner definitions and “what is SEO” content
- Content published elsewhere
- Promotional content dressed up as a guide
- Anything written purely for a link, with no value to the reader
- Recycled advice with no first-hand experience behind it
What You Get
- Exposure to an engaged audience of business owners, marketers and agencies
- A quality backlink from an established domain
- Author bio with a link back to your website
- Social media promotion across our channels
How to Submit
All guest post submissions go through our main submission page. Please read the full guidelines before submitting:
We are particularly interested in contributors who run SEO campaigns themselves and can show what happened, including the things that did not work.
If you would like to reach a broader marketing audience, you can also write for us on digital marketing, or see the full list of blogs that accept guest posts.
What a strong SEO pitch looks like
The pitches that get accepted here have three things in common. They name a specific angle, not a topic. They say what the reader will be able to do afterwards. And they show the writer has actually done the thing.
A weak pitch says “I would like to write about technical SEO for your blog.” A strong one says “I want to write about why 68 percent of a 3,000-page site never gets crawled, using a site I fixed last year, with the crawl logs and the recovery timeline.” One of those is a topic. The other is an article.
The angles that get accepted fastest
- A campaign you ran, with the numbers, including what did not work
- A tool comparison where you actually used both tools on real sites
- A technical problem most people diagnose wrongly, and how to tell the difference
- What changed in 2026 and what it means for a business owner who is not an SEO
- A process you use that a reader can copy the same day
Who reads SEO content on this blog
Business owners who run their own sites, marketers who own SEO as one of six jobs, and agency people who need to explain a decision to a client. They are not beginners and they are not specialists. They know what a backlink is. They do not know how to decide whether a migration is worth the risk.
Write for the person who has to make a decision on Monday. Skip the definitions. Get to the judgement.
Formatting that gets published without edits
- A short intro that states the problem, no throat-clearing
- Descriptive H2s, one idea each, no clever headings that hide the point
- Short paragraphs, plain English, no jargon you would not say out loud
- Screenshots or data where they prove something, not for decoration
- One contextual link to your own site where it genuinely helps the reader
- No AI-written filler. It is obvious and it does not get published
SEO topics that are already well covered here
Before pitching, search the site. If we have covered it, pitch the angle we missed rather than the same ground again. Areas already covered in depth include guest posting strategy, keyword research basics, on-page fundamentals, and general link building. The gaps that are genuinely open: AI search and citation, technical crawl diagnosis, SEO for specific business models, and honest tool comparisons with real testing behind them.
Frequently asked questions
What SEO topics do you accept guest posts on?
Technical SEO, indexation and crawl issues, keyword research, content optimisation, link building, local SEO, AI search and AI citation, and honest tool comparisons. The bar is first-hand experience and a specific angle. If you have run the campaign yourself and can show the numbers, that is what we want.
What SEO topics don’t you accept?
Beginner definitions, anything promoting private blog networks or bought links, and tool reviews that hide a commercial relationship. If it rehashes what a hundred other blogs already published, it will not land.
Do you charge for guest posts?
For editorial guest posts, meaning unpaid contributions from practitioners with genuine expertise, no. For sponsored articles, link placements and brand partnerships, yes. They are two different processes. Editorial goes through the write for me page. For sponsored placements, get in touch and we will send the details.
What word count do you publish?
Editorial posts: 1,500 to 3,500 words is the sweet spot. Under 1,200 words rarely justifies the editorial time. Over 4,000 is fine for a pillar piece.
What is the typical turnaround time?
For editorial pitches, a response within three to six weeks, sometimes faster. If you have not heard back within eight weeks, take it as a polite no. Sponsored articles move faster, typically one to three weeks from agreement to publication.
Can I include backlinks in my SEO guest post?
One contextual backlink to your own site or a relevant resource is fine in an editorial post. More than that starts to feel link-driven rather than reader-driven. Sponsored placements include the agreed link package.
