All article submissions should be written with this audience in mind.

We are looking for contributors with startup, small business or entrepreneurial experience and an overwhelming passion for small business. Additionally, if you are a startup enthusiast, entrepreneur, or business leader with industry-specific expertise that relates to our audience, we’d welcome your article submissions. We entertain various writing styles but are most enthusiastic about writers who provide content with a clear focus and strong content value to our readership.

If you are interested in contributing, these are areas of content that we consider:

  • SEO

Submission Standards

Our site accepts original content only. Plagiarism is strictly impermissible. Once an article is submitted, we retain first publication rights and the right to reuse or modify content. As a guest contributor, content submissions are unpaid. Featured writers and experts will benefit from attribution, maximized exposure to our global readership and one backlink in their bio. All submissions should be:

  • Narrative-like, news or opinion
  • Correct in spelling and grammar
