How to pitch
Form or email
Pitch the article title by email first and wait for validation before writing. Send the draft as a Google Doc to [email available after sign-in]. Requirements: 1,000 words minimum; title of 60 characters maximum; an H1 that differs from the title but keeps the same keyword; a meta description of 160 characters maximum with the main keyword at the start; internal links to other E-Commerce Nation articles where possible; external links that prioritise sources for figures, with a personal blog link permitted; and SEO-named WebP images rather than stock photos. Once published, no modifications or link additions are allowed, so the submitted version must be final.

Publisher source
The route and terms above were recorded from the publisher page. Source checks may be automated. Always check the publisher page for changes before sending a pitch.
https://www.ecommerce-nation.com/write-for-us/Reviewer noteThe page states explicitly that it is "not here to host your promotion" and that it rejects plagiarised or already-published articles. Links cannot be added after publication, so agree on any link placement before the draft is finalised.
Last source check: 9 Oct 2026. Due for re-check.
