How it works
Three steps, one honest decision in the middle.
Pitch and pay
Pick a package, tell us the topic and the site you want linked, and check out. Your pitch is saved before payment, so nothing gets lost between the form and the card.
A human reviews it
Every post is read and judged by a person against the standards on this page - the prohibited list, the quality floor, the fit with what our readers came for. You get a publish-or-reject decision within 5 working days.
Published, or refunded in full
Accepted posts go live on the blog, indexed, with up to 2 dofollow links to your site. Rejected pitches get every cent back through Stripe - no partial refunds, no store credit, no argument.

Editorial standards
The contract your payment is made under. If it is on the left, write it. If it is on the right, keep your money.
What gets accepted
- 1200+ words written for a human reader
- Topics our readers search for: SaaS, marketing, growth, dev tools
- Original content - never published anywhere else
- Real substance: numbers, process, lessons, working examples
- Up to 2 dofollow links that belong in the sentence they sit in
Refused outright, no exceptions

A prohibited topic is refused after payment too - that is what the full refund is for. Do not pay hoping we will not notice; the review exists because we do.
Questions
›Are the links dofollow?
Yes. An accepted post carries up to 2 dofollow links to your site - typically one to your homepage or product page and one to a deeper page of your choice. Links must sit naturally in the content; a post written as scaffolding around an anchor text gets rejected.
›Do you accept every paid post?
No, and that is the point. Every submission is reviewed by a human against the editorial standards on this page. Prohibited categories are refused outright, and so is thin content, spun text and anything our readers - SaaS founders and marketers - would not actually want to read. A rejection is refunded in full.
›Why do you only publish a few guest posts a month?
The blog earns its search traffic with hand-written content, and that traffic is exactly what you are buying access to. Publishing 4 guest posts a month keeps the blog a blog; publishing twenty would turn it into a link farm and burn the asset for everyone, you included.
›How long until my post is live?
You get a publish-or-reject decision within 5 working days of payment. Accepted guest posts usually go live with the next content deploy after editing; done-for-you posts take longer because we research and write them from scratch, and you get one revision round before publication.
›What does the SaaSCity blog actually rank for?
SaaS directories, backlinks, domain rating and launch marketing - the topics its readers search for. The blog is the majority of this site's organic traffic and its posts are indexed, internally linked and kept live with no expiry date.
›What are the content requirements?
1200+ words, written for humans, on a topic relevant to SaaS, marketing or software. Original content only - we check, and plagiarised or AI-spun submissions are rejected without a second look. We edit accepted posts for clarity and style; substantive edits go past you first.
›Can I write about my own product?
Yes, if the post teaches something real. A case study with actual numbers, a build-in-public story, a how-to that happens to use your tool - all fine. A thinly veiled sales page is not. The test: would a reader who never buys your product still get value from the post?
›What happens if you reject my post?
You get a full refund through Stripe to the card you paid with, and a one-line reason. You are welcome to pitch again with a different topic - a rejection is a judgment on the pitch, not a ban.
4 slots a month. Pitch yours.
Topic, site, email, card. A human reads it within 5 working days and you get a post that ranks - or every cent back.
