How to Guest Post for Health & Nutrition Publications for Free
Use your Substack as a great tool to gather readers who love your health writing
Food writers get paid to eat. It is a nice idea to consider when writing your next food review for your favorite restaurant. Clients are willing to pay writers to write about their experience at their restaurant and it is a great opportunity for writers to build a portfolio. Consider saving this article to learn how to write for your favorite websites. You can find Health and nutrition publications that accept guest writers on their website for free. If you’re a foodie who loves to write you want to save this article to read for later.
My passion for cuisine has brought me here. I’ve come to health and nutrition as my love for delicious and nutritious recipes brought me down a new path in my writing career. I enjoy learning about food and how to use it to heal your mind and body. Food is meant to be enjoyed and the right foods can comfort your soul in the best ways. I earned my Certificate in Nutrition at the Oxford Home Study Centre. This new window of information has helped enlighten my understanding of food in a nutritious light. I find that I need to build an audience of readers who share this same love of cuisine with me. One of the best ways of doing so is by pitching to publications that accept guest writers on their food blogging websites.
I will write about the best way to do this through a quick Google search example.
Google’s search engine has a certain way of cataloging information. My nearest librarian taught me how to use this tool to help me find targeted research online.
Type in a Google search the following:
Sites:”Write for Us” + “Food”
“Write for us” + “Health and wellness”
“Write for us” + “Nutrition”
You will get a list of websites that come up accepting guest writers in this niche. You can read the requirements on their website and send them a pitch via email. At the end of your pitch ask them for a do-follow link back to your Substack to increase traffic to your website. It is helpful to build a relationship with these editors because they will get to know you as a writer and find it easier to get accepted for writing future articles on their website.
Editors will also get a better feel for your writing. They might head over to your Substack and see the length of work you have as an example of your writing and decide if you are a good fit for their publication. They might even suggest subject titles that they haven’t covered yet on their website. This will be a great way to brainstorm new ideas to impress your editors.
When you do get a do-follow link be sure to include it in your author’s bio. If your editors request an author’s bio, a do-follow link will attract traffic back to your substack suggesting new readers to subscribe to your Substack. This audience is your tribe and band of people who love to read what you write. You can create a community of foodies who support your work and will eventually subscribe to your paid subscription because they love what you do and relate to your health & food writing on a wonderful level.
Conclusion
I hope you found this information helpful. Health & wellness and food writers would find that Google and Substack work good together for finding readers. You can use Google to find guest posting opportunities to grow your audience. You can also build relationships with editors who love your work and will be all the more willing to invite you to write for their website because they relate to your work so seamlessly.
