Contributor Guidelines

Articles submitted for consideration should be of interest and appropriate for the readers of the Promo.com Blog. We prefer articles that introduce new ideas and advance conversations around topics and trends that engage our readers – think op-ed rather than content marketing. We appreciate lively, polished writing that balances research or news with memorable anecdotes or examples that help illustrate your point of view.

 

Items to include

  1. Main Text
  2. Meta Description (100-150 characters long)
  3. Optional but recommended: Internal images (in labeled file) + screenshots
  4. All additional designs in an editable format
  5. Guest Author photo
  6. Guest Author short bio

Ready to Publish

Given the large volume of posts that we receive daily, we ask that your posts be in a ready-to-publish state that is consistent with our existing content standard when you submit them for final review.
While we review each post and may adjust formatting as needed, posts requiring heavy editing may be rejected.

Call-to-Action

  1. A download of some sort of content resource (guide, report, white paper, eBook, etc.)
  2. Registration for an event (webinar or live event)
  3. A free demo (must link to signup page)
  4. A link to an external article or website
  5. A call to follow the company on social media, including social profile links
  6. A call to subscribe to email newsletters and other related subscriptions

Syndication

We might syndicate content published on the Marketing Reviews Blogs to third parties such as Medium, Yahoo! News, Bing News, Google News, and content distribution platforms. Please proofread and edit your posts carefully before submitting, as they syndicate the version originally published on our site. We cannot edit or remove posts once they are live, and we do not have the ability to edit or remove posts syndicated to external sites.

Originality and accuracy

All contributors are responsible for the originality and accuracy of their submissions. Any contributor found to be plagiarizing any percentage of his or her content will be subject to an investigation of his or her entire body of work. If found guilty of plagiarism, the offending author will be banned from the community with all content removed.

Content to avoid

While we encourage drawing from your own experiences in business to support your ideas, over-the-top self-promotion (of yourself or your company) will prevent us from publishing your article. The same goes for dense jargon and abstract, blanket assertions. We do not publish company-specific news, press releases, or content reading similar to a press release. Contributors are welcome to include a relevant CTA at the end of their posts. This may be either image- or text-based (1-2 sentences).

Content Guidelines

All posts must be at least 600 words, but long-form content (1,000+ words) is accepted and encouraged.
Articles may include relevant images, videos, and outbound links that improve the overall experience of our community. Irrelevant hyperlinks will be removed and submissions containing keyword stuffing will be rejected.
