We write for small business owners looking at financing options. The strongest pitches address a real, current challenge in small business loans, fill a genuine gap in our existing coverage, and are written in a clear, direct style suited to our readership.

• Articles between 700 and 1,200 words
• Original, unpublished content relevant to small business loans
• Grounded in real data, reporting, or direct industry experience — claims should be backed by credible statistics or case studies where relevant
• Must pass a plagiarism review (Copyscape or equivalent) before publication
• Proper grammar and spelling — we edit lightly, but submissions should arrive close to publication-ready
• One backlink to your own site is allowed within the body content
• No affiliate links
• High-quality supporting images welcome (1920×1280px or similar), if relevant to the piece
• A short author bio and headshot are welcome if you'd like a byline (optional)

Tighter bank lending, expensive alternative finance, and owners signing merchant cash advances without understanding the true cost.

We're especially interested in honest comparisons of financing types and their real cost — but any well-researched, current angle is worth pitching.

• SBA Loans
• Lines of Credit
• Equipment Financing
• Alternative Lenders
• Loan Applications
• Cash Flow vs Credit

Direct and practical, explaining terms like APR and factor rates in plain English. Write for our everyday readers (consumers and small-business owners), even when the subject is professional — practical or newsworthy, never a product showcase.

Formats that tend to work well here: explainers, how-to guides, case studies.
