Quick answer: ABCYApi welcomes contributors through our write-for-us programme. We publish clear, accurate answers and step-by-step how-to guides that solve a real reader question, give contributors a genuine byline, and review every submission editorially. We do not accept content written only to place a link, and we do not sell disguised links inside our answers.
Key takeaways
- Who should pitch: practitioners and experts who can answer a question clearly.
- What we want: original answers and how-to guides — not promotion.
- Guest post guidelines: read the standards below before you submit a guest post.
- Bylines, not link placement: we credit contributors; we do not run content purely for links.
- How to become a contributor: pitch through our contact page.
What we publish from contributors
ABCYApi answers questions, so the contributions that fit best answer one well. A strong pitch takes a question our readers actually type into a search box and answers it better than what already exists: accurately, in plain language, with clear steps where a task is involved. We value first-hand expertise, practical how-to guides and careful explanations. We are much less interested in generic filler, rewritten marketing copy, or content whose real aim is to promote a product.
Guest post guidelines
Before you submit a guest post, please confirm it meets these standards:
- Original and unpublished — not posted elsewhere or spun from existing text.
- Accurate and sourced — claims a reader can verify.
- Genuinely helpful — written to answer, not to sell.
- Clearly structured — a direct question or task as the title, then a clean, logical answer.
- Interests disclosed — tell us if you have a stake in the subject.
Topics that fit ABCYApi
As a broad knowledge base, we cover many subjects, but the test is always the same: is there a real question a real reader is asking? How-to guides, explainers, comparisons that help someone decide, and answers to common misconceptions all fit well. If you are unsure whether your idea matches, send the exact question you plan to answer and we will tell you honestly whether it is a fit.
How to become a contributor
- Send a short pitch — the question you will answer and why your answer is better — via the contact page or partners@abcyapi.net.
- We respond if it fits, sometimes sharpening the question.
- You write the answer to the agreed brief and our guidelines.
- We edit for accuracy, clarity and usefulness, and may request revisions.
- We publish with your byline once it meets the bar.
Our policy on links
Here we are deliberately firm. A contributor may include a relevant link where it genuinely helps the reader, and we credit authors properly. What we will not do is publish an answer whose real purpose is to place a link, and we do not sell undisclosed or disguised paid links inside editorial. If your goal is a paid, labelled placement rather than a genuine contribution, the honest route is sponsored content, not the contributor programme.
Editorial review and what to expect
Every accepted piece is edited. We may tighten the writing, ask for sources, correct errors or remove promotional language. We aim to be helpful and prompt, but the reader’s need for a correct answer comes first, and we will not publish something that falls short even after edits. If a piece cannot reach our standard, we will tell you rather than run it.
What we decline
- Content written only to place or sell a link.
- Republished, spun or low-effort answers with no original value.
- Undisclosed promotion of a product, service or employer.
- Unverifiable claims, invented statistics or fake quotes.
Guest post topics we accept
We welcome news guest posts and contributor articles from writers with genuine expertise. Popular topics for a news guest post on abcyapi include:
- politics
- business
- world news
- current affairs
- explainers
If your idea is a strong fit for our readers and is not already covered, we would like to hear it.
Guest post guidelines
To keep quality high, every news guest post must be original and unpublished, accurate and well-sourced, genuinely useful rather than promotional, and written in clear language. We edit accepted drafts to our standard and may add or adjust links for relevance. Purely promotional pieces are welcome too, but they run as clearly labelled sponsored content, not as an editorial guest post.
How to submit a guest post
- Read these guest post guidelines and check we cover your topic.
- Send a short pitch — working title, angle, why it helps our readers, and a line on your background — via our contact page.
- On approval, send the draft; we review it for accuracy and fit.
- We edit, schedule and publish, crediting you as a guest author.
About ABCYApi
ABCYApi is an independent question-and-answer knowledge base: readers arrive with a question and leave with a clear, accurate answer. A named editorial team decides what we cover and how we answer it, and those decisions are not for sale. You can learn who we are on our about page and reach us through our contact page or at partners@abcyapi.net. Every commercial placement described here is clearly labelled and kept apart from our independent answers, following the FTC endorsement guidelines.
Frequently asked questions
How do I write for ABCYApi?
Send a short pitch through our contact page or at partners@abcyapi.net. If the question fits, we will agree a brief and you can submit a draft.
Do you pay contributors?
Terms vary by piece and are discussed case by case. Contact us and we will be clear before you write.
Can I link to my own site?
A relevant link that helps readers is fine. We do not publish answers written purely to place a link, or sell disguised links.
How long should an answer be?
Long enough to answer the question fully and no longer. We value completeness and clarity over word count.
Will my answer be edited?
Yes. We edit for accuracy, clarity and usefulness and may request revisions before publishing.
What is the difference from sponsored content?
Contributions are editorial and reviewed on merit; sponsored content is a paid, labelled placement. If your aim is promotion, sponsored content is the route.
How soon will I hear back?
We reply to pitches that fit as quickly as we can. If you do not hear back, the pitch likely was not a match this time.
Do you accept news guest posts?
Yes — original, expert news contributions that genuinely help readers. Pitch first via our contact page; promotional pieces run as clearly labelled sponsored content, not editorial.

Do you accept sponsored or paid guest posts?
Editorial guest posts are unpaid and earn a byline. Paid promotion is welcome as clearly disclosed sponsored content — ask about options.
