Guest Posts

As owner of Lifeofamissfit, I’m Katie, and I’m always looking for new contributing writers. Writers of all ages and backgrounds are welcome. But I do ask that you are passionate about mental or physical health, exercise or running in some capacity, and have a reasonable level of writing ability.

High value, unique content that’s enjoyable and easy to read (and is factually correct) is key. If that sounds like you, email me on lifeofamissfit@gmail.com.

 

Process for guest post submissions

I currently charge £50 per guest post, which is subject to be updated. If you’d like to contribute, please do:

  • Send over one or more guest post working titles first; to ensure it meets the topic, tone of voice / brand of my site.
  • Please send over if possible a previous guest post or article you’ve written on the topic
  • Once the title is agreed, payment will be required by Paypal
  • Once payment has been received, the writer can then send over the article to myself.
  • Assuming the article meets requirements, I will upload (within 5 working days)

Please note my prices are a set fee to allow me time for:

  • Full communication with yourself
  • Agreement of the working title
  • Full read of your article and any edits if needed
  • Full upload to my site including meta data, content formatting & imagery
  • Adding your x1 dofollow backlink

I will either add my own images on to the guest post, or select some stock imagery myself.

Process for link insertions/edits

I charge £30 for link insertions.

Please email me and let me know your proposed anchor text, my article you’d like the edit to sit on, and your ideal URL to link to.

Your anchor text should as relevant as possible to help Google understand what the linked piece is about, and avoid keyword stuffing.

I don’t accept any content around casinos/gambling/CBD.

Working with brands/PR on sponsored content

I am available for product reviews and to work with brands. Here are a few examples of my (non sponsored) product reviews. I’d love to hear about any opportunities you may have. Please email me on lifeofamissfit@gmail.com.

I’d be very open to working with brands in the lifestyle/ health/fitness/sport/wellbeing niche.

My current audience are:

  • interested in beginner running information and running related reviews, such as trainer reviews.
  • mostly based in the United States and the UK

Lifeofamissfit.com Traffic data

My running blog has been growing steadily as you can see from this third party data tool. It was started in 2016 as lifeofamissfit.wordpress.com and then in September 2023 I moved it over to lifeofamissfit.com and it’s been growing ever since.
