- Follow the writing guide for your type of piece (see below)
- Create an article 1,000-3,000 words long. Pieces that fully cover a topic and engage readers thoroughly through a topic with images, descriptions, videos and other engaging and useful content are more likely to rank higher on google search

- Insert photos, that you own, into the folder with your Google Doc. Pictures bring a piece to life!! Don’t submit without any pictures.
- Name your photos climber-route-photographer.jpg or person-location-photographer.jpg

It takes a tremendous amount of time and energy to take a piece and run it through review, editing, copy editing, layout, uploading, SEO, brand review, placement, and scheduling.
