CU Independent publishes a mix of News, Sports News, Home Solutions, Lifestyle, Entertainment, Celebrity, and Health & Care.
If you have an idea that fits what we publish and you can support key claims with reliable sources, send us a pitch.
What We Are Looking For
We accept original submissions in formats that match what we publish:
- Explain-it-like-you-mean-it posts (what it is, how it works, what to know)
- Trend roundups (beauty, fashion, culture, entertainment)
- Home guides (costs, materials, upkeep, common mistakes)
- Sports pieces (basics, matchups, rankings, storylines)
- Health & care topics that stay cautious, practical, and source-backed
Benefits
- Get Featured On A Multi-Category Site: Your work can appear in sections like News, Sports, Lifestyle, Home Solutions, or Health & Care.
- Editorial Brand Mention: Your brand can be included contextually within the article under our in-house author, ensuring a natural placement.
- Build Your Portfolio: A live, published piece you can share with clients, employers, or future publications.
- Editorial Support: We may polish formatting, headings, and flow so the post fits the site.
- Ongoing Opportunities: Strong contributors may be invited to submit more topics in the same category.
Simple Guidelines
- Submit original content only (no rewrites or republishing)
- Keep it useful and well-structured (headings, short sections, bullets when needed)
- Fact-check names, dates, and numbers
- Use reliable sources for health, money, legal, or stat-heavy claims
- Avoid self-promotion, affiliate links, and link stuffing
- Avoid medical promises like “cure,” “guarantee,” or “works for everyone”
