Write for Us: Technology, AI, Cybersecurity and Software

As the site continues to grow, we welcome contributions from writers, industry professionals, and organisations who can offer clear, thoughtful, and well-structured perspectives on modern technology.

What We Are Looking For
We prioritise content that aligns with a publication-style approach. This means your article should be:
- Explanatory rather than promotional
- Structured and easy to follow
- Neutral in tone, without hype or exaggerated claims
- Relevant to current or emerging trends
- Written for a general but informed audience
We are not looking for:
- Affiliate-style content (e.g. “Top 10 tools”)
- Generic digital marketing advice
- Thin or low-value articles
- Highly technical papers that are difficult to follow
- Sales-driven content disguised as editorial
The goal is to produce content that could sit comfortably within a modern technology publication.
Content Guidelines
To maintain consistency across the site, all guest contributions should follow these core guidelines.
Length
We expect a minimum of 1,800–2,200 words, depending on the topic. Content should be comprehensive and provide genuine depth.
Short or surface-level articles will not be accepted.
Structure
Articles should follow a clear and logical flow. While headings are encouraged, avoid overly templated structures such as “Introduction” and “Conclusion.”
Instead, aim for a natural progression that includes:
- A clear opening that frames the topic
- Explanation of key concepts
- Real-world relevance and applications
- Challenges or limitations
- A forward-looking perspective
Tone and Style
The tone should be:
- Professional but accessible
- Informative rather than opinion-heavy
- Confident without being exaggerated
Avoid overly casual language, first-person storytelling, or promotional phrasing.
Originality
All submissions must be original and not published elsewhere. We do not accept duplicate or lightly reworked content.
Content should offer genuine value, whether through insight, explanation, or synthesis of ideas.
Link Policy
We understand that many contributors are interested in including links within their articles. Our approach is designed to balance this with editorial integrity.
- Links must be relevant and contextual
- Overly promotional or unrelated links will be removed
- Anchor text should be natural and not keyword-stuffed
- We reserve the right to edit or remove links during the review process
Our focus is on maintaining the credibility of the site while allowing appropriate references where relevant.
Editorial Process
Every submission goes through a review process to ensure it aligns with the standards of Dykes Do Digital.
This includes:
- Initial review – assessing topic relevance and structure
- Editorial review – refining tone, clarity, and formatting
- Final approval – ensuring the article meets publication standards
We may make minor edits to improve readability and consistency. Significant changes will be discussed with the contributor where necessary.

Maintaining Editorial Integrity
Dykes Do Digital is positioned as a technology publication, not a generic blog or link marketplace. Maintaining this distinction is essential.
Every article—whether editorial or sponsored—is expected to meet the same standards. This ensures consistency across the site and preserves its credibility with readers.
We believe that high-quality content benefits both contributors and the publication as a whole. By maintaining clear guidelines and a structured approach, we aim to create a platform that supports meaningful, informative, and relevant technology content.
A Platform for Modern Technology Insights
As technology continues to evolve, the need for clear, accessible, and well-structured content becomes increasingly important. Dykes Do Digital exists to meet that need, offering readers a way to understand complex developments without unnecessary complexity.
We welcome contributors who share this goal—those who can explain, analyse, and explore the technologies shaping the digital world.
If that aligns with your approach, we look forward to hearing from you.
