My fees for publishing on EssentialOils.Life amounts to $1,200 USD. Whether you provide a post to me or request I write it, this fee remains consistent. I do prefer writing the post being sponsored. Half the cost will be due when a sponsored post is commissioned and is non-refundable. The remaining amount is due upon publishing with a five-business-day grace period and is also non-refundable. If full payment is not received by 4 pm EST 5 business days after publishing, the published post will be unpublished and may be repurposed without your consent or mention.
EssentialOils.Life will hold the copyright to any content published on this site.
I do provide limited SEO editing for posts provided to me. Articles requiring major editing will be rejected. I do recommend using a service like RankIQ, TFIDF, and TEXTOPTIMIZER to help with SEO.
If you're asking for a product or service review, this fee is in addition to providing the product or service (including shipping).
If you want me to run an ad campaign, I will require an additional fee to cover ad costs.

Guidelines for Pitching on EssentialOils.Life
To get in touch with us about providing sponsored posts or guest posts, or receiving a guest post from one of our team members for your website, please email Nicole with a detailed message (email in the list below).
** Please note, vague emails will be marked as spam and deleted. Nicole receives pitches for publishing on her websites daily, most of which are asking for generic collaborations without any details whatsoever. To save time and get noticed, be sure to follow the guidelines below.
Due to a high volume of spammy offers, we will not be responding to pitches that do not meet our criteria.
- Please do not start your pitch with a fake compliment. This trend is disingenuous, especially when the compliment is entirely irrelevant. If you'd like to send a compliment, at least ensure it is relevant first.
- Identify which website you write for (or intend to write for).
- Make sure you offer a few topic ideas that make sense for EssentialOils.Life and your blog/brand. *** The topic MUST include some sort of non-medical use of essential oil..
- While not necessary, it's nice to offer something in return, such as promoting the post, a reciprocal opportunity to post on your site (even if it is appropriately syndicating the original post as it is published), or linking to the post from your press page. (Offering something is way better than a sleazy fake compliment)
- Place “EO.L Goodness” in the subject line so we know you have read and agreed to our terms. This will also fast-track gaining Nicole's attention.
- Submit guest/sponsored post pitches to nicole @ EssentialOils.Life
After submitting your topic request, please allow 5 business days for a response.
