Guest Post Guidelines
We don’t want to make the submission process unnecessarily complicated. However, a few basic guidelines help us maintain the quality of the content published on Stack Quora.
1. Keep Your Content Original
Please submit original content written for Stack Quora.
Articles should not simply be copied from another website or lightly rewritten from existing content. If you use information, research, statistics, or ideas from other sources, provide appropriate references where necessary.
2. Write for the Reader
The main purpose of your article should be to help the reader.
Explain concepts clearly, provide useful examples, and focus on solving a real problem rather than simply promoting a product, company, or service.
3. Keep the Content Relevant
Your article should be related to our technology-focused audience.
We are mainly interested in software development, testing, QA, programming, automation, web development, DevOps, databases, tools, and related technology topics.
4. Use a Clear Structure
Please make your article easy to read.
Where appropriate, use:
- A clear title
- Introduction
- H2/H3 headings
- Short paragraphs
- Bullet points
- Numbered steps
- Examples
- Code snippets
- Screenshots or diagrams
- A useful conclusion
A clear structure also makes technical content easier for both readers and search engines to understand.
5. Keep the Language Simple
You don’t need to use complicated words to demonstrate technical knowledge.
Write naturally and explain technical terms when necessary. Our audience includes experienced professionals as well as people who are still learning.
6. Check Your Article Before Submission
Please check your article for:
- Spelling mistakes
- Grammar
- Broken links
- Incorrect code
- Formatting issues
- Missing information
Don’t worry if a few small changes are needed. Our editorial team may make reasonable edits to improve grammar, readability, formatting, or clarity.
Guest Post Word Count
There is no rigid word-count requirement for every article.
As a general guideline:
- Short informative articles: 800+ words
- Tutorials and technical guides: 1,000+ words
- Detailed guides and case studies: 1,200+ words
However, quality is more important than simply reaching a word count.
A useful 900-word tutorial can be better than a 2,000-word article that repeats the same information.
Can You Add Links to Your Guest Post?
Yes. Relevant links are welcome.
If a link helps the reader understand the topic, provides additional information, points to documentation, references a source, or takes the reader to a genuinely useful resource, you can include it in the article.
For example, you may link to:
- Your website
- A relevant article
- A useful tutorial
- Official documentation
- A GitHub project
- A relevant tool
- A research/reference source
- A portfolio or professional profile
Context Matters
Links should be placed naturally within the article.
For example, if you’re explaining Selenium and want to reference an official Selenium resource, a contextual link makes sense.
Similarly, if you have written a detailed article that helps readers understand a concept mentioned in your guest post, linking to that article can be useful.
We don’t want contributors to remove useful links simply because they are afraid of a strict link policy.
If a link genuinely adds value to the article, feel free to include it.
At the same time, we may remove or change links that are irrelevant, misleading, broken, excessively promotional, or clearly added only for search-engine manipulation. Google specifically warns against links created primarily to manipulate rankings, including excessive or optimized links in guest posts.
Can I Add a Link to My Website?
Yes. You can include a relevant link to your website when it naturally fits the article.
For example, if you are writing about:
“How to Improve API Testing”
and your company provides an API testing tool, a relevant reference to that tool may make sense.
However, the article should still be informative rather than a sales page.
We want readers to learn something from the article even if they never click a link.
Promotional Content
We understand that many contributors are writing about their own company, product, service, or project. That’s completely normal.
However, the article should provide genuine information rather than reading like an advertisement.
For example, instead of:
“Our company provides the best automation testing services. Contact us today.”
A better approach would be:
Explain a real automation testing problem, discuss possible solutions, and mention your service naturally where it is relevant.
This keeps the article useful for readers while still allowing you to introduce your work.
Images, Screenshots and Code
Technical articles often become much easier to understand when they include visuals.
You can include:
- Screenshots
- Diagrams
- Code snippets
- Architecture diagrams
- Tool screenshots
- Relevant images
- Tables
Please make sure you have the right to use any images you submit.
If an image belongs to another website or creator, provide the appropriate source or attribution where required.
For technical articles, screenshots and examples are especially welcome when they help explain the topic.
Author Bio
You can include a short author bio with your submission.
A good author bio can include:
- Your name
- Your professional background
- Your area of expertise
- Your website or professional profile
For example:
About the Author:
Steve is a software tester with experience in manual and automation testing. He enjoys writing about Selenium, API testing, test automation, and software quality.
Keep the bio short and relevant.

Step 6: Publication
Once the article is approved, we will prepare it for publication on Stack Quora.
The final formatting, title, images, links, and other elements may be adjusted slightly to match the website’s publishing style.
What Happens After You Submit?
After receiving your article, we look at a few basic things:
Is it relevant?
Does it fit our technology-focused audience?
Is it useful?
Will readers learn something or get help with a real problem?
Is it original?
Does it provide its own explanation, examples, experience, or perspective?
Is it readable?
Can readers understand it without unnecessary complexity?
Are the links relevant?
Do the included links make sense in the context of the article?
If the answer is yes, your article has a good chance of moving forward.
We don’t expect every submission to be perfect when it arrives. Minor editorial improvements are part of the publishing process.
What We Don’t Publish
We try to keep our guidelines reasonable, but there are a few types of content we generally won’t publish.
We may reject content that:
- Is copied or substantially duplicated from another website.
- Has no meaningful connection to technology or our audience.
- Exists mainly to place links without providing useful information.
- Contains misleading or intentionally false information.
- Is extremely promotional or reads primarily like an advertisement.
- Contains harmful, illegal, deceptive, or inappropriate material.
- Uses irrelevant links or excessive promotional links.
- Is poorly written to the point that it cannot be reasonably edited.
These guidelines are intended to protect the quality of the website and provide a good experience for our readers.
Can You Edit My Article?
Yes. Our editorial team may make reasonable changes to improve:
- Grammar
- Spelling
- Readability
- Headings
- Formatting
- Sentence structure
- Technical clarity
- SEO elements
- Link placement
- Overall presentation
We try to preserve the author’s original meaning and voice while making the article easier to read.
SEO and Guest Posts
We encourage contributors to write with both readers and search engines in mind, but SEO should not come at the cost of readability.
Good SEO practices include:
- Choosing a clear topic
- Understanding search intent
- Using relevant keywords naturally
- Writing useful headings
- Answering common questions
- Adding relevant internal and external links
- Using descriptive titles
- Providing original information and examples
Avoid repeating keywords unnecessarily. Google specifically identifies keyword stuffing and content created primarily to manipulate rankings as spam practices.
The best approach is simple:
Write for people first and optimize naturally for search engines.
