About Guest Post Pitches

​SEO Collaborators - Please Note!

These are our guidelines for guest posts (with backlinks) that we follow to maintain the quality and integrity of our platform. If you contact us without reading and following these guidelines, you are unlikely to receive a response to your email. 

​

We seek to engage with established writers and influencers whose content and ethos align with our site's quality and values. To submit a guest post, you must submit an initial content pitch followed by a sample paragraph or outline before a full submission is requested. This helps us implement quality control and saves time for both parties by avoiding multiple iterative review cycles.

​

Pitch Submission Guidelines:

To ensure a personalized and meaningful collaboration, we request contributors to submit a well-crafted pitch. Here's a guide not just for our site, but also for general use, on how to send an effective pitch:

1. Personalization:

   • Begin your pitch by expressing genuine interest in our content. Instead of a vague and generic email, show us that you've explored our site and know what it is about. We discourage the use of generic, mass-email language. Craft a pitch specifically for our platform, showcasing your dedication and effort.

2. Introduce Yourself:

   • Introduce yourself briefly, highlighting your role, credentials, and background. If you are an SEO professional, site owner, or content creator, write briefly about your experience in the field. Give us your LinkedIn profile link. We like to know our collaborators. ​

3. Link Intent and Relevance:

   • Clearly state the backlinks you intend to include in your guest post. We are more likely to accept your offer if we have clarity on the links. 

   • If your pitch involves linking to a business, ensure it aligns with our ethical standards. We do not entertain links related to gambling, recreational drugs, or any content inconsistent with our values. We can only allow links to business related to education and parenting. 

4. Pitch Substance:

   • Provide a brief summary of your proposed article topic. Bonus would be to include key takeaways and how it contributes to our audience's understanding of play-based learning. 

   • Demonstrate understanding of our site's focus on play-based learning for preschool kids and their parents. Explain how your proposed content aligns with our mission. 

   • Highlight what makes your content unique and why it would be valuable to our audience.

   • Avoid duplicating topics already covered on our site.

5. References:

   • Share relevant samples of your previous work in the education or parenting niche. This helps us gauge your writing style and expertise.​

​

Content Guidelines:

1. Relevance:

   • All submissions must align with our site's theme of play-based learning for preschool kids and their parents.

2. Quality Standards:

   • We expect well-researched, informative, and engaging content. Articles should provide valuable insights and information.

3. Originality:

   • Submissions must be original and not published elsewhere. We value unique perspectives and fresh content.

4. Link Policies:

   • Each article may include 1-2 backlinks, provided they are relevant and add value to the reader's experience. If the article content is not related to the site requiring backlink, the backlink will be presented with the author bio. 

5. Length and Format:

   • Articles should be of sufficient length to cover the topic adequately. Use of images, subheadings, and a reader-friendly format is encouraged.

6. No Duplicate Topics:

   • Contributors should propose topics that are unique and not covered extensively on our site.

   • We're particularly interested in articles about:

     • Teaching art, logic, general awareness, coding, language concepts, and numeracy using fun, play-based methods.

     • Educating neuroatypical children or children with learning/reading/writing/physical difficulties.

     • Celebrating regional festivals at home using play-based techniques for holistic learning.

     • Creating innovative arts and crafts projects.

     • Designing DIY strategies, worksheets, and plays for education.

     • Curating resources for children with disabilities.

     • Teaching children in English, Hindi, or any regional language.
