We welcome contributions for any of the sections on our site, and we regularly publish bylined articles. Here’s what you need to know if you want to write for Visitbrazil.net.
Writing Guidelines
- 500-1000 word articles
- We need great content that is 10x better than anything that can be found on the Internet. If that means longer, so be it. If it means shorter and more catchy, so be it!
- Use catchy titles – the title needs to draw attention and make you want to read the article! See http://www.copyblogger.com/proven-headline-formulas for a starting point.
- Write in a casual, friendly tone.
- Keep it easy to read with lists, short paragraphs, sub titles and images.
- When referencing, quote the source with a link. We do not accept secondary sources but reputable ones.
Formating Guidelines
- You may submit your article as Word or text file.
- Article titles and sub headlines are always in title case.
