Get Published on the Here I Work Blog – Guest Post Guidelines

Hello!

Are you looking to share your expertise with a large audience of tech-savvy engineers, designers, makers, and entrepreneurs? Then you are at the right place – we are now accepting guest posts 😀

The HIW Blog features insightful content in the space of software development and design, remote working, and entrepreneurship. We’ve reached over 400k monthly visits – and this is just the beginning!

A) Guest Blog Topics

Here’s a list of topics in which we accept guest posts:

• Actionable articles across any tech framework/language (e.g., AngularJS, Python, etc.) – please check our engineering section
• Freelance development and design
• Remote working
• Entrepreneurship

B) How to Get Your Blog Published

1. Only original, unpublished work

   We don't publish the ‘same old’ content. Ensure that whatever you have in mind isn't already covered on our blog. Just go to our search bar and check if a similar post exists.

2. Share a summary

   Send us a 100-word summary of your article, along with the chosen topic and your author bio, and we’ll get back to you within 24 hours with a confirmation if it fits. Email it to ricky@hereiwork.com with the subject line “Guest post – your_name.”

3. Stick to our guidelines

   Upon receiving confirmation, adhere strictly to the guidelines while writing the article.

4. Email it to us!

   Email your final post submission to ricky@hereiwork.com.

C) What’s in it for you?

• You get a do-follow link to your website
• No delays in publishing 😎
• Promotion across Here I Work's social media channels plus, your post will be shared by one of our founders with a heavy presence on LinkedIn.

D) Guest Post guidelines

• Only original, unpublished work is accepted, and the post must be relevant and insightful
• The post must be fluent, readable, and error-free
• There must be proper attribution of data, quotations, and reference to outside content
• You’re allowed only one link (do-follow) to your company’s website, in the author’s bio; no links to your website in the article body
• If you’re convinced, here’s what we expect content-wise:

E) Formatting and content guidelines

• The article must be over 1200 words
• No 100% AI generated articles, the content must be reader-centric.
• Always use simple sentences – 20 words per sentence is a good thumb-rule
• Avoid unnecessary filler words, and stay away from buzzwords and jargon
• Paragraphs should be no more than 3 to 5 sentences long
• Use H2, H3, and H4 formatting for subheadings wherever appropriate
• No more than 300 words in between each subheading
• Add bulleted lists wherever possible to break up dense chunks
• If you’re including images, also add the image source

F) Author bio

• Share a short and punchy byline for your bio.
• Include a link to your Website and your social media profile in the google doc.
• Give us a profile headshot image in JPG or PNG format.

G) Guest Post review process

• Once we receive your guest post submission, we take 2-7 business days to review it.
• If your article meets our editorial standards and aligns with our content strategy, we will respond to let you know your article will be published. We’ll let you know even otherwise.
• Please note that we reserve the right to edit your submission. We’ll review it, suggest/make any changes if needed, and then publish it.
• If we feel your post needs substantial changes, we’ll email you back with our thoughts and request for revision.
• If your post is accepted, you agree not to publish the post elsewhere, including your own blog or website.
• In the case your post is rejected, you are obviously free to do whatever you want with it.
