Thank you for your interest in working with me.  I love partnering with company brands, their products, and other bloggers on projects.  If you’re interested in working together on a project, here are some ways we can do that.

PayPal payments must be sent as SERVICES and NOT Goods. You are paying for a business marketing service, not a product. 

** I AM WILLING TO WORK WITH YOUR BUDGET WITHIN REASON**

I accept several types of collaborations, including:

Post Important Information

I am always open to collaborations on topics that fit my website—general lifestyle, wellness, food/recipes, local travel, beauty (NOT cosmetic surgery,) food, as well as, home and garden topics.

However, I do not do casinos or gambling unless it is more of a travel theme for my state (Michigan, USA).

If you are interested in CBD posts, they must be related to DIY recipes (like those listed on my site), holistic topics, or wellness topics.

I also do NOT do lawyer/legal, business topics in another niche, addiction, recovery, or treatment-related topics. I also will not write about anything sexual or illegal.

Guest Post

Due to Nevermore Lane’s high demand for guest posts, I currently don’t accept free guest posts or post exchanges. However, I accept paid guest posts on my blog, starting at $40 USD per post. This a marketing space fee.

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 of $25 applies (per dofollow link) to the exclusive content, 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.
