Guidelines

We only publish content about AI and technology that helps digital businesses run, ship, and scale — tools, workflows, growth, marketing, ops, and dev tooling. The bar is editorial, not stylistic: if a draft would still be useful to a reader six months from now, it's probably a fit.

In scope

AI tools & agents, SaaS & growth, marketing & SEO, dev tooling, MCP, and operator playbooks for digital businesses. Out of scope: CBD, crypto / airdrops, gambling, NSFW, gaming, plagiarized or republished work — automatic pass.

We accept

  • Original, unpublished work — we run plagiarism + AI checks
  • 1,200–2,500 words, with H2/H3 structure and a clear takeaway per section
  • Concrete examples, screenshots, or first-party data — not generic advice
  • External citations to primary sources (studies, docs, official posts)
  • Up to 2 contextual links to your own site, plus 1 byline link
  • Original images, diagrams, or screenshots (1200×630+ for hero)

We pass on

  • Plagiarized, paraphrased, or AI-rewritten work — we run originality + AI checks on every draft
  • Republished content (Medium, Substack, LinkedIn, your own blog) or AI-generated filler with no editorial judgment
  • Off-scope verticals: CBD, crypto trading / airdrops / token shilling, gambling & betting, NSFW / adult, gaming, or anything unrelated to AI, SaaS, and digital business
  • Promotional posts disguised as guides; affiliate-heavy or anchor-text-stuffed content
  • Generic listicles or topics already covered well on tooljunction.io (search before pitching)
  • Pieces with no first-party insight — "10 best tools" written by someone who hasn't used them

How submission works

Three steps. Pitches first, drafts after approval — saves both of us time.

  1. Step 1

    Pitch the angle

    Email the proposed title, 2–3 line angle, primary keyword, and a brief outline. We don't accept finished drafts cold.

  2. Step 2

    Editorial review

    We reply within 2 business days with accept / pass / revise. Approved pitches get a brief and deadline.

  3. Step 3

    Publish & promote

    We edit for clarity and SEO, send a preview, and publish. You get a do-follow byline link and a feed mention.

Questions writers ask us

Do you accept finished drafts or sponsored posts?

We prefer pitches over finished drafts — it's a faster no for both of us if the angle isn't a fit. Sponsored placements have their own paid path with clear disclosure; email us if that's what you're looking for.

How many links can I include?

Up to two contextual in-body links to your own properties (must be relevant to the section, not stuffed) plus one byline link. Additional outbound links should point to primary sources.

Can I republish the article on my own blog later?

We ask for exclusive rights for 90 days. After that you can republish with a canonical pointing to the ToolJunction URL.

Do you edit the post before publishing?

Yes — light editorial pass for clarity, structure, and on-page SEO. Your voice stays. We share a preview before going live.

How long does the review take?

Pitches: 2 business days. Drafts: up to 5 business days. Publish slot is typically within 1–2 weeks of approval.

Have an angle worth publishing?

Send the pitch — title, primary keyword, and a 2-line angle is enough. We reply within two business days.
