Post Here
Posting your content on our site helps you gain increased visibility, increased promotion, and a larger audience than you might be able to reach on your own. We help our bloggers by providing a community that appreciates great content and access to larger promotional channels, such as Twitter and Facebook.Our Content is contributed by professionals like you!
The content on this site is contributed by the members of our community and all of it is moderated. That means that nothing submitted is published until it has been reviewed and approved by our editors.There are two ways to submit your work. The first way is to create posts directly on this site to be published here exclusively. Exclusive posts that meet our standard of quality get preferential treatment in terms of promotion and page position. Alternatively, you can set up your account to take in posts from the RSS feed of your own blog. Whichever method you choose, please review the terms of use for contributed content.
Step 1: Sign up and Login to our site
In order to publish posts on our site, you'll need to have an active account here. User accounts on this site are shared with our sister sites (you can find a list of these on the bottom right of this page). If you have an account on this site or a sister site, login here. If not, sign up here. Once you're complete, you'll be redirected back to this page.Step 2: Fill out your profile
We like our posts to have a name and a face behind them so we ask that you fill out your profile a bit before we publish your posts.- Once you're logged in, click on My Profile on the top right of the page.
- Now click Edit Profile in the light grey user menu.
- In order to be published, you need to have a first name, last name, and avatar image. If you're having trouble adding an image, please read our Help page entry on avatars.
- If you'd like to have information about yourself appear at the end of the post, make sure you fill out the Bio field. Users wishing to connect with you also find it helpful if you add your Website and Twitter handle.
- Once you've entered all your information, scroll down and click the big, green Save button to make the changes live. Now you're ready to add content!
Step 3: Add content to the site
There are two ways to submit your content to our site: automatically through a valid RSS or Atom blog feed or manually on the site.Step 3a: Add your existing blog feed
The main benefit to adding your content to our site via a feed is that it each post automatically comes into our system to be reviewed by our editorial team. A few things to keep in mind before you add your feed:- Your feed needs to provide the complete text of your blog posts in order to be published. Summary feeds will be removed from the system (we will try to notify you of this if it occurs). For more information on setting your feed to full, see our Help page entry on feed settings.
- Incoming feeds can only be attributed to one author. If your feed is a group feed or will have guest posts, they will all be attributed to the user account that added the feed. Consider splitting your feed using Yahoo Pipes or a similar service.
- Incoming posts from feeds are not published automatically, only added to our moderation queue. Feeds that continually provide off-topic posts will be removed without notice.
Step 3b: Add posts to our system manually
We love to partner with bloggers who provide exclusive content to us by posting directly on our site. The benefits for bloggers include:- Access to our large audience
- Increased visibility and recognition
- Promotion through our network
- Preferential page position
