Contribute an Article to This Site

How Do I Contribute an Article?

Simply follow the instructions below to submit site content. Before you submit an article, make sure we haven't already covered that exact entrepreneurial topic. If you've got a variation on an entrepreneurial topic that we've already covered, that's fine.

We will review your article contribution and, within two business days, will let you know if we will be putting your article on the site.

If your article is published, thousands of entrepreneurs and small business owners who visit our site will enjoy your article. You will be given full credit for the article, including a link to your website if you have one.

What Are the Benefits of Writing Contributed Articles?

Those who have submitted articles in the past have seen four key benefits from contributing articles.

• First, they get a link to their site. In marketing parlance, it's known as an inbound link and it can play a big role in bumping your site up in the search engine results. Sweet!
• Second, they build their own thought leadership profile. By writing articles, you establish yourself as an expert on a topic. If you are an aspiring or experienced freelance writer, you are growing a portfolio of accomplishments with each and every article that is published, and this site is well-regarded in almost all circles. That's a good thing.
• Third, authors of contributed articles sleep well at night. If you provide good advice to entrepreneurs, you can rest easy knowing that you are helping others through your sage counsel. You've accumulated some amazing wisdom and business lessons, haven't you? It's time to spread the knowledge. Seriously, your business knowledge and small business advice may get a struggling entrepreneur back on the path to success or help a newbie entrepreneur get on the right path.
• Fourth and finally, you'd be surprise what a good article can do for lead generation. We received a note from an attorney who contributed an article to our site. Somebody read the article, called the attorney and eventually engaged them for a project that resulted in over $15,000 in legal fees. Writing articles on topics you know and love can be great for your business!

Article Submission Guidelines

• You can submit any article as long as it provides useful information and advice to entrepreneurs and small business owners. The best articles educate readers on the basics but also include insights and advice that even seasoned entrepreneurs will appreciate.
• We ONLY accept original content. No plagiarism! You can quote other resources as long as those mentions are properly referenced.
• The article will be exclusive to our web site -- you may, however, also post it on your own website. You agree not to contribute the article to other websites after we have published your article. The penalty for breaking this solemn vow is that bad karma will follow you for the rest of your life -- plus, we will probably take down the contributed article.
• Gaebler Ventures Resources for Entrepreneurs editors reserve the right to reject or publish any submitted articles.
• Please do not submit articles that are effectively advertisements for your products and services. Be objective and, if appropriate, mention other vendors.

• Please, do NOT type in all CAPS. Articles typed in all CAPS will not be accepted.
• Take a look at the many articles already on the site to get an idea of the type of articles to submit, the tone of the articles, and the level of detail to include.
