Before you write

What every article needs to clear review.

  • Original, and yours. Written for us, not republished from your own site or anywhere else, and not AI-generated filler — it should read as genuinely written by someone who does the work.
  • Accurate. Advice and claims need to be correct — we won't publish anything misleading, and an editor may come back to you with questions before pricing it.
  • Long enough to be genuinely useful. There's no fixed word count, but a couple of short paragraphs won't clear review — cover the topic properly.
  • Tagged correctly. Every article needs a real business category from the directory (so readers searching that trade can find it) and one of our five topics — Local guides, Business news, Spotlights, Tips for owners, or Buying guides.
  • A short excerpt. One or two sentences summing it up, shown on the article card.
  • Only images you have the rights to. Your own photos, or ones you're genuinely licensed to use.
  • No promotional overkill. It's fine to be credited and to draw on your own expertise, but it should read as a useful article, not an advert.
  • Nothing defamatory, illegal, or infringing someone else's rights. Standard formatting — headings, bold, links, lists — is all fine.

An editor reads every submission before it goes live.
