Our team polishes your draft so it ranks and reads well — sharpening structure and SEO without rewriting your voice.
Every page here is engineered for search. Your evergreen piece keeps pulling traffic and clicks long after it goes live.
LOCAL SEO, SEO & GOOGLE ADS ARE OUR TOP PRIORITY. We also love sharp, experience-led pieces for contractors, HVAC, and roofing companies.
Local SEO "Write For Us"
This is our home turf and our most-read category. We want deeply practical pieces on Google Business Profile optimization, the local map pack, citation building, NAP consistency, review generation, geo-grid rank tracking, service-area pages, and multi-location SEO. If you've actually moved a business into the 3-pack — or out of a Google suspension — we want that story.
Example angles
SEO "Write For Us"
On-page, technical, and content-driven SEO for businesses that live and die by organic traffic. Think keyword research, topic clusters, internal linking, Core Web Vitals, schema, E-E-A-T, crawl budget, and surviving algorithm updates. We favor data-backed, experience-led articles over recycled 'SEO basics' that already exist a thousand times online.
Example angles
Google Ads "Write For Us"
Paid search that drives real phone calls, not vanity clicks. We're looking for Google Ads, Local Services Ads (LSA), Performance Max, conversion tracking, bidding strategy, negative keywords, and landing-page optimization — written for service businesses that measure success in booked jobs and cost-per-lead.
Example angles
Contractors "Write For Us"
Marketing for general contractors, remodelers, painters, plumbers, electricians, and the trades. Lead generation systems, branding, reputation management, referral engines, and seasonal campaigns. If it helps a contractor book more jobs and stop relying on word-of-mouth, it belongs here.
Example angles
HVAC "Write For Us"
Demand generation and seasonal strategy built for heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning companies. Off-season booking, tune-up campaigns, service-area SEO, maintenance-plan funnels, and paid media tuned to the brutal swings of the HVAC calendar.
Example angles
Roofers "Write For Us"
Storm-response marketing, insurance-claim funnels, local SEO, and high-intent lead generation for roofing contractors and exterior remodelers. We want ethical, effective playbooks — not spammy storm-chasing — that turn estimates into signed jobs.
Example angles
Follow these and your draft skips the reject pile. Ignore them and it won't get read.
Four steps from pitch to published.
Email ari@localseoguy.digital with 2–3 headline ideas, a one-line angle for each, the category it fits, and a link to a writing sample.
We reply within 2–3 business days. Once an angle is approved, you'll get a short brief covering word count, formatting, and linking rules.
Send the finished draft as a Google Doc or Markdown file with images and sources attached. We may request one round of light edits.
Approved posts go live with your author bio and get shared across our channels. We'll send you the live URL the day it publishes.
Beyond free editorial contributions, we run a small number of sponsored posts each month. Sponsored articles are ideal for SaaS tools, agencies, and service brands that want guaranteed placement, additional contextual do-follow links, and inclusion in our newsletter. Every sponsored piece is clearly disclosed and must still clear our editorial quality bar — we protect our readers and our rankings.
Want a sponsored placement?
ari@localseoguy.digitalYes. Alongside free editorial guest posts, we accept a limited number of sponsored and paid placements that meet our quality bar. Sponsored articles can include additional contextual do-follow links and are clearly disclosed. Email ari@localseoguy.digital for current sponsored-post rates and availability.
Local SEO, SEO, and Google Ads are our priority categories and get reviewed first. Contractor, HVAC, and roofing marketing angles are also a strong fit. Generic 'top 10 tools' listicles and unrelated niches are usually declined.
Standard guest posts include one relevant do-follow link in the body or author bio. Sponsored placements can include additional contextual links by arrangement.
Aim for 1,200–2,000+ words. Depth beats length — we'd rather have 1,300 genuinely useful words than 2,500 words of filler. Include examples, screenshots, and data wherever you can.
After we approve your draft, most posts go live within 5–10 business days, depending on the editorial queue.
Email your pitch and a writing sample to ari@localseoguy.digital with the subject line 'Write For Us – [Your Topic]'. That's the fastest way to reach our editorial team.
