If we cannot discern from your article which area is most suitable, your article stands a good chance of not being accepted.
Article Format:
When we accept articles, any graphics such as photos, etc. MUST INCLUDE THE IMAGE SOURCE WITH YOUR SUBMISSION. If image source is not stated, image WILL NOT BE USED. Priority publishing is given to those who do supply graphics with their submission. All other supplemental materials such as graphs and charts are encouraged as a link back to the origin (not as an attachment). Articles, if accepted can take up to six weeks to publish. If article is published, author is notified by email. Due to the amount of submissions we receive, we do not send email confirmations of receipt other than acceptance of submission. If you do not hear from us, it is safe to assume your article was not accepted. We reserve the right to publish or not publish based upon content and or circumstances. Types of articles we are currently looking for include relationships, finances, travel and technology, lifestyle, business, health, product or book reviews or fashion articles focusing on the mature woman over 40. Products should be submitted as a product review, as should any and all books as book reviews. All articles will be subject to approval.
Also worth noting – we do not accept articles that have been previously published elsewhere. If you wish to re-purpose an article you published online, we recommend you change the title and the first paragraph of the article/content. Google does not like duplicate content and it not only hurts our rankings it would hurt the rankings of other sites with the same content. Changing the content by 30 % or more will help mitigate that.

Up to two links can also be included in the body of the article plus one link in the signature file (bio) footer. When making a submission, please designate which link should be a ‘do follow’ link.
