Guest Posting + Work With Me

Interested in contributing to Make the Trip Matter? Do you have local knowledge or great travel tips to share?

Awesome! Make the Trip Matter currently has a DR of 30+ and reaches over 40,000 viewers monthly… and is rapidly growing each month. I would love to help your site gain exposure and establish authority with Google.

Guest Posting Guidelines

– The article must be 1500 words or more. The more you write, the better.

– This must be original content that you haven’t posted anywhere else.

– You may use AI, but it must be heavily edited to sound natural and not repetitive. Use 1st and 2nd person only!

– Guest posts must be well-written and optimized for SEO. If they are not, I reserve the right to decide to not publish your post, or make additions and edits for SEO.

If you use photos in the article, they must be your own. I will source photos if you do not have any, but please let me know ahead of time.

What YOU Get From Guest Posting

Not only will your blog be shared with over 30,000 readers monthly… you will receive one backlink for every 500 words you write.

If you include a backlink to a post, it MUST be contextual and included within the body of the text.

Instead of a backlink to a post, we can decide to include a link to your homepage instead. Please see an example here.

*I reserve the right to make additions and changes to this post at any time and to add my own affiliate links if applicable.

How to Apply

If you’re interested in guest posting on Make the Trip Matter, please send me an email at janelle@makethetripmatter.com. In the subject line, please include Guest Post Idea + (Your Name).

– Please pitch a minimum of 3 ideas. Bonus points if you include solid keywords!

🌎 While I am open to any destination, I am more likely to accept and feature articles about destinations that are currently being posted on the site. You can check out which locations I’ve covered here.

Thank you! I’m looking forward to hearing about your awesome ideas.
