How a pitch becomes a published article
- STEP 01
Pick a sharp angle
What is the single idea readers will walk away with? A focused angle is more persuasive than a broad topic.
- STEP 02
Show your sources
Link to research, interviews, or first-hand experience. Editors love pitches that already point at evidence.
- STEP 03
Match a section
Tell us where the piece fits — Technology, Business, Culture, or another category from the homepage.
- STEP 04
Send and iterate
We respond within a few days with notes, edits, or a green light. Most published pieces evolve from a first draft.
What makes a great pitch
- Lead with a one-sentence summary editors can repeat back.
- Mention 2–3 quick proof points or sources.
- Aim for 600–1,800 word pieces unless you are pitching a feature.
- Avoid promotional copy — readers can spot it instantly.
- Tell us why now — what makes the timing right?
