- After publication, the article will be promoted on the weekly newsletter and a facebook post.
- You get a Writer Profile at the bottom of all the articles you write – which include a headshot, bio and links to your website and social media pages.
What should the article be about?
- Articles should be about a topic or issue that relates to your business, that is interesting and relevant to North Shore Mums. For example:
- A Paediatric Dietitian could write an article on 6 Tips for keeping our kids healthy during the festive season!

- Before you start writing, you’ll need to first pitch the idea to our Editor, so we can check it’s the right fit and we haven’t published something similar recently.
- All text — even sections of text — must be original and exclusive to North Shore Mums. Once written, the articles become the property of North Shore Mums and cannot be published elsewhere on personal blogs or websites. You are welcome to share the article on your social media channels.
Tips for writing a great article
- Length: 600-1000 words
- Style: conversational, easy to read
- Format: Rather than long sections of text, the article should be broken up into sections for easy reading. Think along the lines of paragraphs that have sub-headings, bullet points, and so on.
- All articles will be edited by North Shore Mums prior to publication.
