Gepard Guest Post Guidelines

Successful guest posts are comprehensive, data-driven, and interesting posts that give our readers (brands, manufacturers, eCommerce store owners, marketplaces, or retailers) something new or helpful about the world of PIM (product information management) and eCommerce overall.

We’re interested in publishing any topic that our readers care about, which includes the most basic things like Conversion Rate Optimization, eCommerce store KPIs, managing and optimizing product data best practices, etc.

Guest Post Main Requirements:

• Original concepts, compelling arguments, and high-quality writing. We will not republish anything that’s been published elsewhere and requires 95+% uniqueness (we accept only texts checked with  Copywritely or text.ru).
• Around 1500 words highly related to the topic.
• The article reflects the writing style/tone of the Gepard.io Blog. We aim to be casual, yet helpful, and typically we stay away from buzzwords and jargon.
• Proper attribution of data, quotations, and outside content referenced in the article.
• No more than one link to your company’s website in the body of the post.

Guest Post Types We Accept

Here are our most successful blog post types:

• PIM/eCommerce Related Reviews/Cases: These posts give readers in-depth takeaways that are supported by relevant, recent examples, original quotes, original graphics, and current data (1,500 words and above). When readers finish this type of post, they should be able to immediately execute on the given topic and have very few questions left on how to do it.
• Graphics: These posts rely on an infographic or SlideShare created by the author. Usually, they feature a few paragraphs of introduction, the embedded media itself, and not much else. The graphic should be comprehensive and easy to read, have a compelling narrative, contain plenty of white space, and feature up-to-date data that are properly sourced.
• eCommerce-related Guides: These posts give our readers some helpful piece of information on different relevant topics. It should contain screenshots, examples, step-by-step instructions. When readers finish this type of post, they should be able to immediately execute on the given topic and have very few questions left on how to do it.

• Anything that’s been covered on our blog before.
• Anything that may be interpreted as a link-building scheme.
• Anything that’s too promotional for your company or organization.
