How long should the blog be?
Approximately 800 words is what we recommend but this is just guidance – if your blog is longer or shorter that’s fine!
Is there a style guide?
We don’t have a style guide for our blog as we would like to encourage individuality. Your own personal writing style and tone will make the blog interesting to our readers.
I see all the blogs have an image. Do I have to provide an image?
We are happy to source a suitable image for your blog. This can be discussed with you.
Can you include a link to my LinkedIn profile or website?
