Post Length
How long should a guest post article be?
All Posts should be a minimum of 500 words or more.
Most articles that appear on Blogging Fusion are between 500 and 2,000 words.
We do love longer posts, but our editorial team is small and limited for time. So if you want to write an in-depth post that is 3,000 words, 4,000 words, or even longer, please ask for approval from the Blogging Fusion Editor first.
Note: Longer posts tend to get more page views, time on page, and social love. However, a large article post can be turned into 3 or 4 more targeted posts instead gaining you more exposure!
The best posts are clear, precise, and to the point. After all, our readers are busy. Tell them what they need to know and finish the article.
Headlines & Paragraphs
Always try to keep your paragraphs short and keep the reader engaged.
Your headline should be interesting enough to entice people to click on it. It should be optimized for search and social media. Remember your Headline will be your article URL.
Short paragraphs are easier to understand and digest, help drive your point across, and encourage reading in this age of information overload and short attention spans.
Required: A featured image that is found at the top of the article is 800 pixels wide and 400 pixels tall. Please review your article before submitting it to make sure your featured image is formatted correctly or we can provide an image for your article for you.
If you did include images, be sure to cite all image sources whenever possible!

In-Article Links
Our editorial team is always on the lookout for links that appear promotional only or self-serving. We're marketing to marketers, so if we don't catch it, our very savvy community eventually will and this can hurt your credibility.
Any links that appear promotional or superfluous will be removed by editorial staff without question.
