Thank you for your interest in writing for WP Mayor. We are not currently accepting new guest posts but may open up submissions again later.

How It Works
At WP Mayor, we understand that we can’t be experts in every field and every niche, but we still want to provide our readers with the best and most helpful content possible.
That is why we have opened up our blog to guest post submissions. We have put together very specific guidelines on what we will deem acceptable. Any submission which does not adhere to our editorial guidelines and doesn’t follow our submission process will be automatically rejected.
1. Read our editorial guidelines
Please ask for our editorial guidelines andΒ guest writing terms, and check out the accepted types of posts and topics belowΒ before submitting your proposal or written guest post. Your post must meet all the written requirements before being considered for approval. Any submission deemed unsatisfactory will be rejected.
2. Submit your guest post or proposal
3. Review and selection
4. The editorial process
Once your article is approved and meets all the aforementioned requirements, including any potential edit requests, our editorial team will prepare the guest post for scheduling and we will send you a link to the final draft for your approval.
You will be credited as the author of the post, so you will also be asked to provide a short author bio. We do not guarantee a date for when the guest post will be published and will fit it into our editorial calendar as we see fit. If your submission is time-sensitive, it may not work out.

FAQs
Yes, when uploading your guest post to WP Mayor, you will be asked to create an author profile. The guest post will be attributed to you and be kept that way forever. We will only make exceptions to this rule and remove your attribution if we find that the profile created is fake or we otherwise deem it necessary to do so for serious reasons.
Yes, please share your idea in a Google Doc and include as much information as possible so that we can determine whether it’s something worth writing about or not.
Guest posts allow for one dofollow backlink to your website . The link itself must fit in naturally with the content and the website being linked to must be approved by the WP Mayor editorial team before publishing. Any other links to third-party websites may be set to nofollow if the editorial team deems that to be necessary.
No, guest posts are not paid, however, you will get the benefit of including a backlink to a website of your choice within the post content, and of being credited for the post on a reputable website.
All guest post submissions must be made using a Google Doc link. This makes it easy for us to collaborate on the post without having to pass around multiple versions. You can find instructions on how to use Google Docs here. Please remember to share the file publicly so that our editorial team can access it and leave comments when needed.
