    Editorial Guidelines for Writers

    At DecorifyIt, we’re passionate about creating high-quality, trustworthy content that inspires UK homeowners to design, renovate, and personalise their living spaces. If you’re interested in writing for us, please follow the guidelines below to ensure your article fits our tone, style, and editorial standards.

    We focus on actionable advice, real-world experience, and reader-first content that reflects British homes, regulations, and interior trends.

    What We’re Looking For

    We publish articles on topics including:

    • Interior design tips and room makeovers
    • DIY projects and home renovation ideas
    • Sustainable materials and eco-conscious choices
    • Furniture arrangement, space-saving solutions, and styling
    • Home maintenance and seasonal upkeep
    • UK-specific building and safety considerations

    We love content that is:

    • Helpful, practical, and backed by real insight
    • Clear and jargon-free (5th-grade reading level ideal)
    • Aligned with UK homes and lifestyle
    • Focused on long-term value for readers, not trends alone

    Our Tone and Style

    Our voice is warm, approachable, and trustworthy — think of it like a friend who knows their way around a toolbox and a mood board.

    Please follow these tone rules:

    • Use British English (e.g., “colour,” “organised,” “skirting board”)
    • Keep paragraphs short (2–4 sentences max)
    • Use H2 and H3 headings to structure content
    • Include bullet points or numbered lists if helpful
    • Avoid fluff or filler — get to the point and offer value
    • Avoid first-person unless requested for an opinion-based piece

    Writing Requirements

    Element Requirement
    Word count 1,000–1,500 words
    Originality 100% original, not AI-generated or spun
    Sources Link to 2–3 reputable UK sources when citing
    Expert quotes Preferred (with name, source, and link)
    Keyword use Provided if assigned, use naturally
    Images We handle images — no need to send your own
    Internal links We may add them after submission

    All articles must pass a plagiarism check and may be edited for clarity, structure, or SEO.

    What We Don’t Accept

    • AI-generated content without human editing
    • Overly promotional content
    • Poor grammar or generic advice
    • Duplicate submissions
    • Content that doesn’t align with our niche (e.g., gaming, crypto)

    How to Submit

    Please email your draft in a Google Doc or Word file to:
    📩 [email protected]

    Include:

    • Your full name and a short bio (2–3 sentences)
    • A headshot (optional)
    • Any links you’d like us to consider (max 1 dofollow link if approved)

    Once reviewed, we’ll respond within 7–10 business days. If accepted, we reserve the right to lightly edit your piece for formatting, tone, or SEO.

    Final Tips for Approval

    ✅ Focus on value: Help our readers make informed home decisions
    ✅ Stick to facts: Use reliable, UK-based sources
    ✅ Keep it original: We want your voice, not a rewrite of someone else’s article
    ✅ Be transparent: If you have a product or service to promote, let us know upfront

    Let’s Build Something Great Together

    If you’re excited to share smart home advice, renovation knowledge, or design inspiration with our growing audience, we’d love to hear from you.

    Thanks for writing for DecorifyIt — where better homes begin with better ideas.
