Frequently Asked Questions

I’m a business owner (real estate agent, visa agent, YouTuber, blogger, podcaster, etc.). Can I submit articles and promote my business?

Yes. You can submit articles and subtly promote your business. You can even link to your website.

How often can I submit articles for consideration?

Please limit your submissions to 2 articles per calendar month.

Will you guarantee to publish my article?

Sorry, but we cannot guarantee that we will publish your article. However, if it fits one of the story topics we’ve requested and meets the other article requirements, we will most likely publish your article.

Will you tell me if you decide not to publish my article?

Yes. We will let you know if we think your article isn’t a good fit for our audience, or if we think it needs more detail or revisions before we can publish it.

Will you edit or change my article?

We may edit for clarity or reformat for readability, but we will not make changes to the substance of your article.

Will I get final approval before you publish the article?

Yes. We will send you a link to review the article before publishing it on our blog and promoting it to our audience.

How long will it take to publish the article after I submit it?

We will try to publish your article within 2 weeks of submission, but it could take a month or more depending on our content schedule and other guest posts already in the queue. We cannot guarantee a timeframe, but our goal is to publish content as quickly as possible.

Can I publish the article on other websites?

No. The articles you submit to be published on AmeliaAndJP.com must be unique and cannot be published anywhere else or Google will penalize our website for duplicate content.

Can I share the published article with my friends, family, and followers?

Absolutely! We encourage you to share the link to the article published on AmeliaAndJP.com with everyone! That helps us reach more people and it helps you establish yourself as an expert.
