Write for Baginda168 — Contributor Guidelines
Quick answer: Baginda168 accepts contributor articles from writers who know the UK gambling space and can produce genuinely useful, responsible-gambling-aware content. Published contributors appear as named authors under our editorial policy. We do not sell guest posts or undisclosed links — this is an editorial contribution, not a link scheme. Pitch a topic to get started.
Key takeaways
- What we want: original, accurate, reader-first articles on casinos, betting, game mechanics and player protection.
- Who: writers with real knowledge of UK-facing gambling and a responsible-gambling mindset.
- Not a link service: we don’t sell undisclosed or disguised paid links inside contributed posts.
- Named authorship: accepted pieces publish under your byline, subject to editing.
- How: pitch first via our contact page; we reply if it fits.
What we publish
We look for content that helps adult readers understand gambling products and make informed choices. That includes explainers on how casino games and odds work in plain terms, guides to bonus terms and what to check before signing up, comparisons of features across licensed operators, and articles on responsible gambling, self-exclusion and player protection. If a piece would help a reader decide more wisely, it fits.
Topics we welcome
- How specific casino or betting mechanics actually work.
- Understanding bonus and wagering terms without the hype.
- Payment methods, withdrawals and account security.
- Responsible-gambling tools, limits and how to get help.
- UK regulation and what a licence means for players.
- Fair, evidence-based comparisons of licensed products.
What we will not accept
To protect readers and our standing, some things are off the table. We do not accept articles written purely to place links, and we do not sell undisclosed or disguised paid links within contributed content. We reject guaranteed-win angles, invented odds, RTP, bonus or payout figures, promotion of unlicensed operators, and anything targeting under-18s. Thin, spun or AI-dumped copy with no real expertise is declined.
18+ only. Gamble responsibly. If gambling is causing harm, seek help — free, confidential support is available from recognised problem-gambling charities and helplines. Nothing on Baginda168 is a promise of winnings, and gambling should never be treated as a way to make money.
Editorial standards for contributors
- Original and exclusive — not published elsewhere, and not spun.
- Accurate — claims are verifiable; no invented statistics or odds.
- Responsible — includes 18+ and help-seeking context where relevant.
- Reader-first — written to inform, not to sell.
- Properly sourced — link to authoritative references, not to promotional targets.
How to pitch
- Send a short pitch via our contact page — the topic, the angle and why it helps readers.
- Include a brief bio and one or two relevant writing samples.
- We reply if it fits and agree scope, word count and deadline.
- You draft; we edit for accuracy, clarity and compliance.
- We publish under your byline once it meets our standards.
Author bylines and links
Accepted contributors publish as named authors, which is the value we offer: recognition for genuine expertise. A contributor bio may include a reasonable, relevant link where it serves the reader. What we do not do is sell links, insert paid links disguised as editorial, or turn a byline into an advertising channel. Commercial links belong in clearly labelled sponsored content or advertising instead.
The editing process
Every contribution is edited. We may tighten structure, verify claims, adjust for compliance and add responsible-gambling context. We will not change your byline or publish something under your name that you have not seen. If a piece needs substantial rework we will tell you what is missing so you can decide whether to revise it.
What happens after you pitch
We read every pitch, but we cannot commission everything, so here is what to expect once you have sent one:
- Acknowledgement — we confirm we have received your idea.
- Assessment — we weigh the topic against what our readers need and what we have already covered.
- Decision — if it fits, we agree an angle, word count and deadline; if it does not, we will say so plainly.
- Drafting and editing — you write, we edit collaboratively for accuracy and compliance.
- Publication — the finished piece goes live under your byline.
A “no” is rarely about writing quality alone; often the topic is already well covered or falls outside our remit. You are welcome to pitch again with a different angle.
Guest post topics we accept
We welcome gambling guest posts and contributor articles from writers with genuine expertise. Popular topics for a gambling guest post on Baginda168 include:
- casino reviews
- betting guides
- responsible gambling
- industry news
- regulation and licensing
If your idea is a strong fit for our readers and is not already covered, we would like to hear it.
Guest post guidelines
To keep quality high, every gambling guest post must be original and unpublished, accurate and well-sourced, genuinely useful rather than promotional, and written in clear language. We edit accepted drafts to our standard and may add or adjust links for relevance. Purely promotional pieces are welcome too, but they run as clearly labelled sponsored content, not as an editorial guest post.
How to submit a guest post
- Read these guest post guidelines and check we cover your topic.
- Send a short pitch — working title, angle, why it helps our readers, and a line on your background — via our contact page.
- On approval, send the draft; we review it for accuracy and fit.
- We edit, schedule and publish, crediting you as a guest author.
