Writing outdoors

Write for us

Are you a blogger, looking to submit a guest post for our website? We want to hear from you! We’re particularly interested if you write on Germany and/or Europe but we’ll consider articles on other destinations as well.

What will you get out of it? A nice little bio linking back to your own blog/website and promotion across our social media channels. Do note that articles once submitted cannot be published elsewhere for SEO reasons.

If you have a travel blog, we might also be keen on writing for you! Drop us a line at contact@trailstainedfingers.com or use the contact page.

Guidelines for pitching

  1. Theme: Your idea must fall into one of these categories – travel, food and wine or hospitality. You can also send a complete post if you wish. We welcome all writing styles but reserve the right to edit your content for grammar/SEO purposes.
  2. Length: We are looking for articles that are at least 1000 words in length. Longer articles rank better on Google, so more people will read your work if it’s in-depth in nature. 🙂
  3. Photographs: Ideally, we’d like a few photos of good resolution to go with your article. But don’t fret if you don’t have any. We’ll use our own, or source pictures from copyright-free websites.
  4. Originality: Please be original in your ideas and content. We don’t want to be penalized for plagiarism!
  5. Eligibility: If you’re an independent writer or blogger, we are interested. If you represent a brand, please check this page and follow the guidelines for sponsored posts.
  6. Cover letter: Please tell us a bit about yourself in your email, along with a link to your blog or online presence.

Please send all pitches to contact@trailstainedfingers.com. We promise to get back to you as soon as possible.
