Guest Blogging Guidelines

Very Best For Kids no longer accepts guest articles on this site. However, we will provide space for sponsored posts provided that they meet our guidelines.

Currently, the cost of publishing on this website is $100 USD per article, per year.

If you would like to publish a sponsored post – please follow these guidelines carefully:

 

  1. Before sending in an article, please contact us first with your ideas. We can then let you know if they are suitable before you start writing.
  2. Articles submitted should be 750 words or over.
  3. Articles need to be formatted with clear headings, subheadings and paragraphs.
  4. Articles need to be fully proofread to make sure they are free from spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors.
  5. At the bottom of the article, please supply your name and any author bio you want publishing (the bio is optional).
  6. When submitting your article please send as a .doc or .docx file.
  7. If you supply images with the article, please let us know where you obtained them. We cannot publish images where there is not permission from the copyright holder and so we need to know if it is legal for us to use them.
  8. Images must be related to the content of your article and be in good taste.
  9. We can only accept .jpg and .png files for publication
  10. The article which you supply must be entirely your own work and not derived, scraped, copied or spun from other people’s work.
  11. The article must not have been previously published or an adaptation of previously published work. It must be original. All articles will be checked using Copyscape prior to acceptance. We do this to ensure that we do not infringe the copyright of others and to prevent the site being penalised by search engines for publishing ‘duplicate content’ available elsewhere on the net.
  12. We will allow a link in the copy of your article to another website – provided that website is reputable and has no association with illegal or immoral activities. We cannot accept links to websites associated with alcohol, gambling or adult content.
  13. Links must be natural in nature and not keyword anchor text that has been ungrammatically squeezed into the writing.
  14. Very Best For Kids promotes tolerance and respect for all people.  We will not, therefore, accept any work for publication which may be offensive with regards to gender, race, age, sexuality, disability or religious belief.
  15. We encourage all our contributors to use social media to share and like the content that they publish.

Please note – we reserve the right to edit and amend articles submitted to ensure they comply with our high standards, fit our in-house style and meet the needs of our readers.
