Guest Post Consideration
Post Subject or Title*
If you were to sum up your idea in 1 sentence, what would a possible post title be for this idea?
What would you like to write about? Tell us more.*
Please tell us a little bit about the topic you have in mind. This should be web video related.
Author:
If you are submitting this on behalf of someone else, please tell us who will be the author.
Experience and expertise.*
Please tell us a little bit about the author, specifically how their experience/expertise is related to this topic.
Please keep in mind the following guidelines.
- All subject material must relate to online video, at least tangentially. Preference shall be given to topics that demonstrate a connection with web video and the online marketing space.
- Tips, case studies and educational information works best for our audience.
- Editorials, research, and commentary must include and refer to actual source information.
- Articles should be properly written, with an intro (summary), body, and closing. They should NOT be stream-of-conscious notes.
- Paragraphs should be within 2-5 sentences. Avoid run-on sentences.
- The first paragraph should be a summary of the topic or event. Following paragraphs should include key points covered in the summary.
- Quotes should be used sparingly, and not make up the bulk of the article. All quotes should clearly identify who they are coming from and in proper context.
- Contributors cannot be with the company they are writing about, either as a directly employee, direct partner or PR company. Author can refer to company if providing a case study, but this must be used sparingly.
- Authors should not write disparagingly about competitors in the space. Your submission should be vendor-neutral and aim instead to educate.
- Articles should be a minimum of 500 words. Our preference is between 700-1200 words, but longer is ok as well as long as it keeps our readers interested.
- You can include a video with your post. However, we do require a written post to accompany the video. You can summarize the points in the video but you will still need to follow the guidelines above.
- For an example of a proper expert guest post – please refer to this article.

When you are ready to submit, you will need to agree to the following:
- You shall remain the owner and author of your contributions; however, you hereby grant to ReelSEO an exclusive, unlimited license.
- You will not post, or allow any one else to post, your content on any third party website or other public platform. You are allowed to post your content on your personal website or blog as long as you do not do so prior to its publication on our website.
- You affirm, represent and warrant that such: (a) is accurate, and not privileged or confidential information; (b) does not violate any laws or legal restrictions; does not infringe on the rights of any third party whereby you have permission to include any third party information, intellectual property, or other intangible property; (c) is free of viruses, adware, spyware, worms or other malicious code; and (d) does not contain defamatory, threatening, disparaging, grossly inflammatory, false, misleading, deceptive, plagiarized, or fraudulent statements.
