Submission Standards
Securing native content programs and guest posts with high authority publications is a proven way to boost your Google ranking and drive more traffic to your site. Gain access to high-quality, natural, white-hat links in YFS Magazine.
Articles submitted for consideration should be of interest to readers of YFS Magazine. We like articles that introduce new ideas and advance conversations around topics and trends that engage our readers–think op-ed rather than thinly veiled marketing messages with no valuable takeaways.
We appreciate lively, polished writing that balances research or news with fun and memorable anecdotes or examples that help illustrate your point of view.
While we encourage drawing from your own experiences in business to support your ideas, over-the-top self-promotion (of yourself or your company) will prevent us from publishing your article. The same goes for dense jargon and abstract, blanket assertions.
Submissions should be unique, well organized, and of high quality. Anything derivative, too abstract, unclear, meandering, or lacking a clear purpose or take-away will be rejected. Personal takes and opinions are welcome, but diary-like blog posts are not.
Read YFS Magazine to get a sense of our editorial style and content to view examples written in a similar vein. Sponsored content should be complete and ready for publishing.
A Note on Links
A maximum number of permanent DoFollow links and NoFollow citation links per submission are indicated via an Insertion Order and/or Invoice. Links must be clean URLs (i.e., semantic URLs) that are readable and intuitively represent the underlying resource as well as relevant to the subject matter of the content. An example of a clean URL is: yfsmagazine.com/startups/top-startup-tips. Inquire about our analytics Package upgrade, $99 per article, to convert Do-follow URLs to tracking URLs.
A Note on Editorial Images
YFS Magazine provides a maximum of two editorial images per article, one hero image and one in-article image. YFS Magazine is the end licensee for all published images to ensure correctly held usage rights and attribution for legal purposes. If you own the rights to an image(s) you’d like to publish, please include the photographers full name and contact information, in order to submit a photo release form.
