How to Write a Crypto Guest Post That Gets Approved

Short answer: Editors approve crypto guest posts that teach readers something new, back claims with sources, use clear headings and keep brand mentions natural. Aim for 800 to 1,500 words with one or two relevant links.

Most rejected guest posts fail for the same few reasons. They are too basic, too promotional or copied from elsewhere. This guide shows how to avoid those problems.

It follows the Coinranking editorial guidelines, but the advice works for most crypto publishers.

Step 1: Pick a topic with a fresh angle

“What is Bitcoin?” has been written a thousand times. Editors want something they haven’t seen.

Good angles:

Your own data. “We studied 10,000 DEX trades. Here is what we found.”
A clear opinion. “Why most token launches fail in the first month.”
A practical guide. “How to set up a cold wallet for a small business.”
A trend explained. “What tokenized treasuries mean for crypto lenders.”

Topics that fit well include market trends, DeFi, Web3, exchanges and tools, trading strategies, security and industry insights.

Step 2: Build a clear structure

Title: Say exactly what the reader gets.
Introduction: Two or three sentences on the problem and the answer.
Body: Three to six sections with H2 and H3 headings.
Conclusion: Sum up the key point and what to do next.

Keep paragraphs short. Use bullet points for lists and steps.

Step 3: Write with real expertise

Go beyond beginner level. Add the details only someone with experience knows. Google’s guide to helpful, people-first content explains why experience matters.

Content must be original and unpublished. AI can help with drafts, but the article needs clear human insight. Editors can tell the difference.

Step 4: Back up every claim

Link to original data, studies or official sites
Name the source of every number
Mark estimates clearly as estimates

Step 5: Keep it neutral

Readers trust content that helps them, not content that sells to them. If your piece is mainly about your product, a sponsored post may fit better.

Mention your brand only where it truly fits. One natural mention is worth more than five forced ones.

Step 6: Place your links with care

Coinranking allows one or two contextual backlinks per post. Make each one useful:

Link to a guide, tool or data page
Place the link where it helps the reader
Use natural anchor text, not a string of keywords

Step 7: Add a cover image

Include a relevant cover image with your submission. A clean, simple image works best.

Common reasons for rejection

The topic is too basic
The article is copied or lightly rewritten
The tone reads like an ad
Claims have no sources
Too many links, or links to unrelated sites
