Guest Posts Welcome

Have you written an article you would like published on Elder Care Cafe?

Having the opportunity to share your experience and knowledge about elder care and care giving can increase your exposure when you post an article on someone else’s website. It is a win-win situation for both of us because you can share your story with my readers and I can add more articles to my topic list.

When you submit an article to Elder Care Cafe you are sharing your story and getting your name before people you might not otherwise have reached while possibly drawing new visitors to your website or health care or elder care related business.

There are a few guidelines for submitting an article to Elder Care Cafe, but you should find them standard to most sites and  relatively painless.

Article Guidelines

  1. Content must be 100% unique. No PLR, scraped, copied, rehashed or spun content will be allowed.
  2. The topic must be 100% about elder care or care giving, although touching on other health care issues is allowed if it relates to baby boomers and/or aging seniors.
  3. The webmaster of this site has the right to refuse any article that is submitted for any reason. If you follow the guidelines in number one and two above, it probably won’t be refused.
  4. All outbound links will be checked and if the links are not appropriate to the topic or are offensive in any way, the article will not be published.
  5. All articles on this site are periodically checked for broken links. If a link in your article is no longer functioning, it will be removed although the text will remain.
  6. A maximum of three (3) links are allowed for each article submitted. Each link can be directed to one site, more than one page on a site, or to three (3) different sites.
  7. A resource box can be added to the bottom of the article, and any links in the resource box will be counted toward the total of three (3) links.
  8. All articles must be over 400 words, written in English, grammatically correct and spelling errors corrected.

Submission Guidelines

You are welcome to submit your article request through the contact form. Do not include the article at that time, but do note it is an  “article submission request” and I will send an email back to you with further details and format requirements.

Please include the topic or idea at that time, even if you have not yet written the article.

If you have any further questions regarding submitting an article, do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to working with you.

Thank you,

Edie Dykeman

    Please let me know if you’re interested and I’ll get to work on it right away.
    Thanks!

    I have visited your site numerous times now, and have contemplated doing a blog post of my own. I love the way that you all write, and the topics seem to always been ones that I hold dear to my own heart. Working with senior citizens and living with my Grandfather has opened up so many of these things for me and I’d like to share my knowledge! Thank you for sharing as always.

    Hi Edie,

    I would love to submit a guest post to your website about mobility devices for the elderly, specifically walkers. The aging process can bring about many different ailments which prompt the need for a walking aid to get around. My article would give details on the different types of walkers and which one is right for an individual based on their ailment. Please let me know if you would be interested in this piece and I will get it to you as soon as possible. Thanks!

    Hell!
    My name is Kathryn Norcutt. After twenty years of nursing, I’ve decided to hang up my nursing cap to concentrate on my family however, since I’ve recently experienced some personal issues with my own parents I thought I could share it with you and your readers. It is titled, “When is the Right Time for a Private Duty Nurse”, in it I discuss the often
    heart-wrenching criteria that would behoove you and your family to looking into full-time nursing care.

    I look forward to hearing back with your thoughts. This article is 100% original and not found anywhere else on the internet.

    Thank you,
    Kathryn Norcutt

    Hello Edie,

    My name is Sarah Jennings and I am a published freelance writer who writes about home health care, senior living, elder care and family.

    I was curious to know if you were accepting any guest articles at this time, as I have some ideas for articles that I feel your readership might enjoy, including two web-ready pieces entitled:

    “Balanced Fitness Programs for Seniors: A Step, Pedal, and Stretch in the Right Direction” and

    “Oral History: Remembering Yesterday for a Better Tomorrow–Tips for a Family Oral History Project at Home”

    If either of these sound good to you please do not hesitate to contact me.

    Also, here are a few links of work I have had published lately. They should indicate style, quality of content, etc.
