Questions writers ask

Do you pay for guest posts?

No. Guest posts are unpaid. You get a byline, an author page and a link in your bio.

Can I post the same article on my own site?

No. We only publish content that appears nowhere else.

Can I write about my own product or business?

You can mention it in your bio. The post itself has to help the reader, not sell to them.

Can I write about health if I am not a vet?

You can write about care and behavior. Posts about illness, medicines and treatment must be written or reviewed by a licensed vet.

Can I change my post after it goes live?

Yes. Email us what you want changed and we will update it.
