Submission Guidelines

Length & Depth

1,200–2,500 words for standard pieces. Longer deep-dives welcome if the topic warrants it. Every claim should be supported by a GOV.UK, HMRC, Revenue Scotland, or Welsh Revenue Authority source.

Structure

Use clear H2/H3 headings, worked examples with real numbers, and short paragraphs. Tables are welcome for rate comparisons. Include a short introduction and a clear takeaway.

Originality

100% original, never published elsewhere. You retain authorship credit but grant us a non-exclusive licence to publish and syndicate.

Links

One contextual link to your own site or LinkedIn is permitted in the author bio. In-body links must be to authoritative sources (GOV.UK, HMRC, academic, or recognised industry publications).

Tone

Clear, practical, British English. Explain jargon. Write as if helping a first-time buyer who is smart but new to the subject.
