Bespoke Article Advertising: Guest Post Guidelines

We’ve been in the solo/travel blogging community since 2008; that’s sixteen years! We work with travel writers that have a reputable travel blog and we invite them to write for us.  If we do not have an existing relationship with you, then you fall under the bespoke article category.

Every now and then … and its incredibly rare, we accept a bespoke guest post from a writer because the pitch article fits our demographic, it is a value-driven topic we’d love to rank for, matches our authority building goals or has potential for our affiliate sponsor links.

First off there are things we never-ever EVER do and by asking, we delete your emails because we know what you’re trying to do:

• We do not link to casinos
• We do not link to gambling sites. 
• We do not link to NFT, bitcoin or CBD sites. 
• We do not offer do-follow forever links

We DO link to reputable travel sites.
