WRITE FOR US:

Would you like to submit an article to Mom Break?

What makes an awesome article? Something that’s succinct, easy to read, and informative for the reader. We accept all types of topics relating to parenting, as long as there’s a direct correlation and provides value to moms.

We’re interested in publishing any topic that moms care about, which includes things like: sleep training, nutrition, mental health, fitness, sex, relationships, education, cooking, household tips…

GUIDELINES

We also look for a few things in everything we publish:

ORIGINAL – All posts should be written by you, and you’re the current owner of the original content.

SIMILAR STYLE & TONE – All blogs should reflects the writing style/tone of the Mom Break blog. We aim to be casual, conversational, yet helpful, and typically we stay away from buzzwords and jargon.

SPELLING & GRAMMAR – While Mom Break will still edit/proofread your blog, submissions should strive to be ready to be posted with minimal revisions.

COMPANY REFERENCES – No more than one link to your company’s website in the body of the post. Company will also be linked in your user bio and description on every post your submit.

NOT ACCEPTED

While we’re very open to receiving different topics that are related to motherhood, there are certain posts that will not be accepted:

ADVERTISING – Anything that may be construed as a link-building scheme. The blog is a tool to provide value to moms, not a free ad placement for your business. We suggest focusing on making the content memorable and impactful, while adding a link to your site at the bottom.

PROMOTIONAL – Anything that’s too promotional for your company or organization. For example, “Teething Company ABC is Amazing!” will not be accepted. “10 Reasons Why Teethers Help Colic” will be accepted.

BASHING COMPETITION – Anything that’s overly critical of individuals or companies — this is not a site to air grievances or for any negativity…the goal is to build each other up and make parenting easier.
