Think you’ve got the stuff? If our mission strikes a chord with you, we’d love to hear from you! Blue Living Ideas is always open to accepting relevant, well-written guest posts. We get a high volume of inquiries, so we’re not able to accept all posts. Before contacting us about guest posting, please read over our FAQ below.<\/p>\n

Guest Post FAQ<\/h3>\n

Do you accept guest posts?<\/strong><\/span>
\nYes, we are always happy to accept good guest articles that are beneficial to our site’s readership. However, please understand that if your intention is promotion, it’s not so much a guest post as an advertorial, and we do charge for those. The price is $150 per post.<\/p>\n

Can I cross-post something from my own website?<\/strong><\/span>
\nWe require that all guest posts be original pieces written for Blue Living Ideas’ audience. You are free to publish your guest post on your site, but we do ask that you wait seven (7) days<\/strong> after the post publishes<\/em> on Blue Living Ideas before publishing elsewhere.<\/p>\n

What should I write about?<\/strong><\/span>
\nOur readers are very concerned with conserving water and marine life and with water justice. Pretty much anything that falls under that umbrella is a good candidate. It’s also a good idea to look over our site and see what we’re posting about to get a feel for the site’s topics and tone.<\/p>\n

How long should my post be?<\/strong><\/span>
\nWe do not have a minimum or maximum post length. However many words you need to say what you want to say works for us. What’s more important to us is that your post have useful, well-sourced information and that it be well written.<\/p>\n

Can I include a bio?<\/strong><\/span>
\nYes! You’re welcome to include a blurb at the bottom of your guest post about you and what you do. But keep in mind, if this is for marketing or other promotional benefit, you’re likely looking for the advertorial option.<\/p>\n

So….interested in guest posting at Blue Living Ideas? Drop us a line<\/a>. If you can, please include\u00a0links to three (3)<\/strong> writing samples as well as your pitch for a guest post topic.<\/p>\n
