Guest Blogging
Guest Blogging
If you like my content, humor and ninjaisms and want me to Guest Post on your blog please contact me.
My philosophy is simple: I don’t whine about life’s obstacles, I ninja kick them down! My kids and I laugh through the hard times to keep our heads above water. I’m a Mom of a daughter who has special needs and two kids with food allergies. Life isn’t easy for sure (it never is) but I don’t let anything get in the way of us living life to its fullest.
I’m a jill of all trades and master of most! I love to create healthy and allergy friendly recipes. I can build almost anything. I garden to put healthy food on our plates. I’m a crafty Mama. I am very involved with community service. I make jokes, drop sarcasm bombs, inspire and welcome everyone in my life like family.
If you have a guest post topic in mind and are looking for the right person to make it come to life then I am your guest blogger!
Guest Bloggers
Don’t Speak Whinese is looking for Guest Bloggers! I’m looking to build a network of Guest Bloggers that are a match to my vision here.
If you are interested in writing a guest post, here are the guidelines:
Submission Guidelines
*Contact me via Email with your guest post draft and include:
“Guest Post: [Insert Your Blog Name]” in the subject line.
If you want to submit more than one Guest Post please do so in multiple emails.
*Send me your post with basic HTML included. I will accept your post within the body of an email or as an attached Word document.
*Please read below for images and links guidelines
*Including any kind of kudos, praise or ego boosting is always encouraged. 
Images and Link Guidelines
*Using image within your post is encouraged.
Please attach images in your email in jpeg format. Make sure the file isn’t as big as my house!
*All images must be owned by you or properly attributed and credited.
*Within your post please feel free to link to related content on your blog or other websites.
I reserve the right to limit the amount of links used in your post. Use common sense with this please and don’t submit a Guest Post with the sole intention of linking everything you have done in the past.
*Do not link to affiliate, paid, or sponsored links within your post.
Content Guidelines
*Sponsored Guest Posts are not allowed.
*Your post must be family friendly but as you may have noticed I’m not opposed to well executed curse words. Sailor mouths are fine but this is a parenting blog so keep the dirty talk minimal.
*Your post must be original content that has not been published on any other blog or website
Google doesn’t like the same content published over and over and I’m not trying to piss off Google. I’m trying to seduce Google slowly.
*Your post must be relevant to the content for Don’t Speak Whinese. The content here is based on the idea that no matter how hard life gets we can figure out a way to enjoy it, make it easier and not bitch about it! If you submit a guest post on 3 ways your husband sucks at life I will reject it. However, if you submit a guest post on 3 Ways you made your husband not suck at life anymore then I will probably accept it.
*Your post must include a short 1-3 sentence bio about yourself/your blog with a link back to your blog. Pimp yourself out!!
Refer to yourself in the 3rd person just like The Rock. It worked for him and it can work for you too if you know what The Rock is cookin!
*I reserve the right to….
-Change the title of the post
-Modify the blog post for spelling, grammar, length or extra ninja-kick-ness.
-Request any changes to the content
If any serious changes are made I will email you the revised draft for you to review/approve before publishing.
Promoting Your Guest Post
*I request that you put a link to your guest post on your own website. The preferred format is that you publish a post on your blog the same day that your guest post is published, tweet, stumble, digg and facebook it just as you would if it was on your blog. Honestly, the more you get the word out the more mutually beneficial it is!
*I always do a combo of tweet, facebook and stumble any content on my blog. Especially Guest Posts!
Rejections
* I reserve the right to decline to publish a guest post. Please don’t take this personally! Just because your guest post isn’t the right fit on my blog doesn’t mean it isn’t good!
If I can’t use the draft you send then you will be notified and free to use your post elsewhere.
NOTE: If you do not yet have a complete post ready for submission you may email me to let me know that you’re interested in guest posting along with any post ideas that you have and then send me your draft at a later date.
