#1. Guest Post
Please see the following for the terms and conditions for the publishing procedure:
- The draft should be written for a minimum of 750 words, 1000 is ideal. Do not use EM DASHES! I can tell this is AI.
- English language only.
- The price is valid for a maximum of 1 (one) dofollow link to your website.
- I do NOT allow naked links.
- I do NOT allow links to websites in any other language. English only.
- For any additional dofollow links, there will be an extra fee per link.
- I reserve the right to edit and modify the draft you share if necessary. Your links will remain in place.
- I reserve the right to add some additional internal links if I have relevant posts on my website.
- I will use relevant stock photos (or the images you provide) as supporting images on the blog post, optimized with alt tags for each photo. If you decide to use your own photos, please send the LINK so I can give the creator credit. I cannot use photos from Canva, Adobe, or other pay to use photo sites. Using sites like Freepik, Pexels, Pixaby, and Unsplash are encouraged.
- Upon publishing, I reserve the right to create a pinnable graphic to share on my Pinterest account.
- The turnaround time will be max. 3 (three) days upon the draft submission. Once it’s finished, I will share the public preview link and send you the invoice.
- The invoice will be due 7 (seven) days after I send the invoice.
- All collaboration posts will be published under the account of the Nevermore Lane team to distinguish them from the original posts I wrote.
My preferences:
- When crafting your introductions, please ensure they are at least three paragraphs long and avoid generic or filler terms like ‘in this post’ or ‘keep reading,’ ‘lets get started,’ read on.’ This will help maintain the quality and uniqueness of your content.
- Please make sure the conclusion paragraph has an H2 title and not just a ‘Conclusion’ or something like ‘Wrapping Up.’ Conclusions should also contain at least 2 full paragraphs.
- While I don’t mind the use of AI as a writing tool, it’s important to remember that I am well versed in how these tools operate and the repetitive nature of their output. Please use AI as a tool and not for direct copy-pasting. Instead, rewrite the content to match the tone, voice, and audience of my website.
#2. Sponsored Post
I accept sponsored posts as long as your service or product is relevant to the topic and aesthetics of Nevermore Lane.
Please see the following for the terms and conditions for the publishing procedure:

- You will provide the anchor text and link to be inserted in the blog post.
- I will write an article with min. 1000 words.
- The turnaround time will be 1 (one) week upon the agreement.
- I will send you the invoice once sponsorship is complete.
- I will use relevant stock photos (or the images you provide) or photos I have personally taken of your product as supporting images on the blog post, optimized with alt tags for each photo.
- Upon publishing, I will create pinnable graphics that I may share on my Pinterest account.
- I reserve the right to remove the link if your website no longer exists – and keep the content live.
- I reserve the right to modify the blog post occasionally, including adding relevant internal/external links when necessary.

Don’t want other links added to your content?
Exclusive Content Policy
Exclusive content ensures that your brand maintains a unique presence on Nevermore Lane. When content is designated as exclusive, no external competitor links will be included for the duration of the business’s operation. If your provided link becomes inactive, the business closes, or any other circumstance leaves the content without a functional reference, broken links will be removed, and I reserve the right to update the content with relevant links that enhance its value.
A service fee applies (per dofollow link) to the exclusive content in addition to your marketing needs, regardless of whether your team provides the material or I create it. An exclusive content policy contract will need to be signed.
Disclosure: This is a for-profit blog. I am sometimes compensated for the work I do with brands and products. I only share the brands and products I use personally and know firsthand. I do not accept payment just to publish positive reviews. If I try your product and don’t like it, I will express my opinion. All opinions are 100% my own and my honest review.
I also do not accept sponsor posts, guest posts, advertisements, or links unless they align with my voice and my brand. If I do not like the link/post/ad I will not accept it. I prefer to work with high value products and services.
Need to make changes?
Revision Policy: If an error has been made on your end, your client changes their mind, etc. There will be a service fee for my time.
NO EXCEPTIONS.
Proofread your content and double check with your clients BEFORE sending me work.
**You are paying for advertising space on my website. You are paying me for service of my time – proofreading, finding photos, editing, and making other changes so that everything fits within my TOS and brand. There are NO REFUNDS for services.**
