Editorial Guidelines

At BloggingTips.com, our mission is to provide you with helpful, actionable, and reliable advice about blogging and content creation.

We believe in producing content that is grounded in real-world experience and designed to truly serve our audience. Here are the standards that guide everything we publish:

1. People-First Content

We focus on creating content that is for people, not search engines. If the content isn't something we would use ourselves or apply to our own strategies, it won’t be published.

Every article, guide, and resource on our site is developed with one main goal: to help you solve problems, learn new skills, and achieve your blogging goals.

2. Originality and Expertise

We only write about topics that we have direct experience with or have thoroughly researched. Our content demonstrates firsthand expertise and provides unique insights that can’t be found elsewhere.

This means:

• We do not produce content simply to attract traffic or chase trends.
• We avoid summarizing what others have said unless we can add significant value or a unique perspective.
• We provide in-depth, real-world advice, with specific examples and actionable steps.

This principle also helps guide our decisions when determining the use of AI in our workflows and processes.

We believe AI to be immensely powerful in helping empower our creators to be more efficient, but we draw a hard line in the sand to avoid becoming lazy or complacent as a result of this efficiency.

3. Satisfaction-Focused

Our aim is to create content that leaves our readers satisfied. Every piece is crafted to answer questions and solve problems completely so that our readers don’t feel the need to look elsewhere for more information.

We consistently ask ourselves:

• Does this content help the reader achieve their goals?
• Will they leave with a complete understanding of the topic?

If the answer is not a resounding "yes" then we'd rather not publish the piece. No matter where you're at on our site, we want our readers to be learning something new, unique, and useful.

4. Google’s Helpful Content Standards

We follow Google’s guidelines for creating people-first content, including the principles outlined in the Helpful Content Update. This ensures our content is valuable to readers first, instead of simply trying to rank it well organically.

We avoid practices that prioritize search engine optimization over user experience, including:

• Writing just to hit a certain word count.
• Creating content on topics we have no expertise in.
• Using automation or producing content in bulk without care for quality.

Once more, it is our mission to create helpful content that our readers find useful. Even if a bunch of low-quality, low-effort content will rank well for our competitors, we'd rather not provide you with material that is less than you deserve to read.

5. Transparency and Integrity

We believe in being transparent with our audience. Our opinions are our own, and if we ever recommend products, tools, or services, it’s because we genuinely believe in their value, not simply because those options are the ones that pay us the most.

We also avoid making promises or guarantees that we can't back up, and our content always reflects honest, unbiased opinions.

As we said above, if we're recommending something, it is because we use it ourselves, so you can trust that our recommendations are honest and can be fully trusted.

6. Clear, Actionable Advice

We aim to provide practical advice that our readers can put into action immediately. Our goal is to help you start an online business, becoming your long-term partner along the way.

All of our content is written with clarity and simplicity in mind, offering step-by-step guidance where applicable, so you can confidently follow our recommendations without confusion.

No matter where you're at in your digital marketing journey, you can rest assured that the advice we'll provide will be expert-proven, yet simple enough to understand and put into practice.

7. Continuous Improvement

Content at BloggingTips.com is never static. We regularly update our articles to reflect new trends, developments, and insights, ensuring that the information we provide is always relevant and up-to-date.

This also means we remove or revise any content that becomes outdated or unhelpful. And if you see something we missed that requires an update, simply shoot us a note and we'll be happy to address the fix.

These guidelines reflect our commitment to producing only the best, most helpful content for our audience. If you have any questions or feedback, feel free to reach out—your insights help us maintain our high standards!
