Write for Us VPN: VPN Blog Guest Post Guidelines

Most VPN pitches are thinly disguised affiliate lists, or they promise total anonymity that no tool can deliver. What this blog wants is the working view from someone who sets up and supports private networks: how a small company chose between a business VPN and a zero trust setup, what an admin checks in a provider's logging policy, how a freelancer protects client files on hotel and cafe wifi.

My readers are business owners, freelancers and remote teams, and they handle client data on networks they don't control. They already read my check on whether NordVPN is safe and my guide to password managers for families. A VPN post has to help them protect their work without needing a security team.

60-second VPN guest post check

A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:

• Do you work in security, networking or IT support, or run a VPN for a team
• Can you explain one decision with the trade offs, not just the features
• Does your opening answer the reader's question in the first two lines
• Have you avoided promising anonymity or anything a VPN can't do
• Have you left out streaming unblocks, torrenting and affiliate links

Read the guidelines and submit your guest post.

What we publish

What we look for in VPN posts

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

Topic	What gets accepted	What gets declined
Choosing a VPN	The questions you asked and why one provider won	A ranked list with affiliate links
Privacy	A clear line on what a VPN does and doesn't hide	Claims of total anonymity
Remote teams	How you set it up for staff and kept it working	Generic advice with no setup steps
Public wifi	Habits that protect client files on the road	Scare stories with no fix
Troubleshooting	A problem you solved and the setting that fixed it	Copied answers from a provider's help page

What we don't accept

• Streaming unblock tricks or ways around a service's terms
• Torrenting advice or anything that helps piracy
• Affiliate roundups ranking providers nobody has tested
• 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

• 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 VPN pitch looks like

A weak pitch says "I want to write about the best VPNs for watching shows abroad." A strong one says "I run IT for a twelve person agency, and I want to show how we picked a VPN for staff on client sites, the logging policy questions we asked, and the one setting that stopped our support tickets." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.

The angles that get accepted fastest

• What a VPN protects and what it leaves exposed
• Picking a business VPN: the questions to ask a provider
• VPN or zero trust for a small remote team
• How to read a VPN logging policy in ten minutes
• Safe working habits on hotel and cafe wifi
• Rolling out a VPN to staff without a helpdesk queue
• Kill switches, split tunnelling and when each matters
• The privacy mistakes a VPN can't fix

Frequently asked questions

Does Lilach Bullock accept VPN guest posts?

Yes. VPN and online privacy guest posts are welcome from security pros, network engineers, IT admins and privacy researchers who can explain a real setup or decision. We publish practical, balanced articles and decline streaming tricks, torrenting tips and affiliate roundups.

What VPN topics do you accept?

Choosing a VPN for a business or team, what a VPN does and doesn't protect, logging policies and audits, zero trust compared with a VPN, public wifi habits and fixing common problems. The common thread is protecting real work, not unblocking content.

Do you accept wider cybersecurity guest posts too?

Yes, but broader security pitches such as phishing, passwords and incident response suit the cybersecurity pages better. Every pitch reaches the same editor and the same rule applies: tested, practical and honest about limits.

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 VPN 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 setting up, securing or supporting private networks. One idea per pitch works best, and you will hear back before you write the full draft.
