What you get for being an AllBusiness Expert
There are some rules, however
- The content you write for us must be non-commercial in nature. In other words, a straight promotion for your product or service will not be published. Please note, however, that we think some of the BEST content on the Web comes from those individuals selling products and services to small business, so we would still love for you to contribute as long as your writings are non-commercial.
- We reserve the right to reject any content that we feel is inappropriate.
- We are generally looking for original content, although we may approve content that resides elsewhere on a case-by-case basis.
- You will need to provide sufficient evidence to us regarding your expertise and writing capabilities before we approve your application.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will I get paid for my writing?
A: Writing for the AllBusiness Experts program is an unpaid position. In exchange for your contributions, you will get a byline on every article you write and an author bio at the bottom of each article that can include links to any of your websites. In addition, each of your posts will run on the home page of AllBusiness.com, so it's great exposure for your brand and your business. Plus, you will have your own profile page with links to your articles and your site. Also, there is a chance that your content could end up on the site of one or more of our syndication partners, such as Forbes.com or MSN Small Business.
Q: How often am I expected to post new articles?
A: We would like to bring on experts who will commit to writing on a regular basis, ideally 2 to 3 times a month, although there is no limit on the frequency of your posting. We like to see an expert post at least three original articles right away.
Q: What should I write about?
A: If you are approved to come on board as an AllBusiness Expert, we will be looking to you for ideas about what you think our readers will be interested in. As an expert in your particular business area, we encourage you to share your insight and insider knowledge to help our readers grow their own businesses.
Q: Can I post my articles on my own site or other sites?
A: You may post your articles on your own site or on third-party sites after the content has been live on AllBusiness.com for 21 days.
Q: Can I post a teaser or a link to my article on my own site?
A: Yes, we encourage you to post a link to your Expert post on your own website as soon as it is live. As long as it is just an introduction and a link, there is no need to wait for 21 days after publication on AllBusiness.com.
