Writing Guidelines

+50 Good Life Movement

Four years ago Bloomer Boomer started curating great articles for an amazing audience and now has added +50 Good Life Movement which is about many things including epic content that is now original fresh material pushed out to our great loyal community.  We are seeking articles about every topic of interest to our community which is really no different for anyone else but our topics and content have a voice uniquely engaging to this community.   Your article will get posted if it meets the general guidelines that include not overtly promotional with information useful to our community.

Broad Guidelines

Our biggest hope is the contributed piece is an original piece that hasn’t been recycled since we do a lot of work on the backend to optimize articles and make sure they get pushed out and generate engagement.

We  adhere to Google best practices regarding fresh unique content.  Bloomer Boomer is a Yoast SEO Premium so this article should be extremely helpful for writers.   The working guidelines are fairly broad, ideally between 250 – 1200 words – longer if okay – headings and subheadings, keywords identified if possible, with an image(s).  For writing credit, please include a bio and headshot.  Any support images are much appreciated.  Email the article and images as an attachment.   So you don’t have to wait for us to alert you when the article is live, will get it posted within seven days of receipt.  You can find it through the search portal at the very top of the website.

Editing

Lucky for us our contributors do great writing so there is not a lot of need for us to edit your work.  However, it is very important every article gets discovered by the most people using the internet.  For that reason, we may do some SEO editing that adheres’s to Yoast SEO on-page algorithms.

Editorial Calendar

CNN Style Shows

We  do CNN style shows which is  very popular.  Our live and recorded shows include those done on Facebook Live and Youtube.  I have included a couple of attachments that will help with Articles and our Recorded and Live Programs.

Social Media Collaboration

Once posted it would be highly appreciated if you would link your website and social media to the article at bloomerboomer.com.  Also, please Like or Follow us on Facebook and Twitter.  We will be making a huge effort to do the same by sharing your article on social media as well.   Working together makes a huge difference in getting out the word.

Green Light SEO

We strongly encourage writers to factor in SEO into the piece.  Every article we post is graded for SEO strength and Readability.  If not reaching a green level of optimization, we will make changes to strengthen it, however, changes are generally minimal but make a huge difference for internet discovery. As you can expect posting articles on a daily basis can be time-consuming and gets more-so if back and forth copy editing is required.  For that reason, we generally will not await editing approval.   Well written fresh and paid content exclusive to Boomer Boomer gets more social media and email promotion.  Finally, there are no contracts for writers.

Live Show Guests

We have launched a weekly show on Facebook Live, Youtube Live and streaming on websites so if you also have access to a thought leader or passionate interesting guest we can look at them on the program.  If you are interested, click here for details.
