Write for Us

We publish practical writing on land measurement, surveying, agriculture and property.

What we are looking for

We accept guest contributions on land measurement and the fields that depend on it — surveying, farming, forestry, property and land administration. The bar is expertise, not volume: one article that explains something properly is worth more to us than ten that restate the obvious. If you have measured land for a living, argued with a registry, or worked across two unit systems, you have something we want.

Scope

Topics we accept

  • Land measurement & surveying

    Field methods, instrument accuracy, plan versus slope area, how boundaries get established and disputed.

  • Agriculture & forestry

    Per-hectare reporting, yield comparison across unit systems, stocking density, subsidy and grant paperwork.

  • Property & land administration

    Reading title documents, registry versus listing discrepancies, buying land across borders.

  • Units, history & standards

    How a unit came to be defined the way it is, regional variants, and what changed when standards were harmonised.

Standards

Editorial guidelines

  • 1,200–1,800 words. Long enough to be useful, short enough to stay tight.
  • Original and unpublished. We do not accept syndicated content or anything already live elsewhere.
  • Every factual claim must be checkable. State your figures, and say where they come from.
  • Plain English. No filler introductions, no rhetorical questions as openers, no marketing tone.
  • One relevant outbound link to your own site or profile is welcome. Paid links, casino, crypto and unrelated SEO placements are not.
  • Structure it: a direct opening answer, clear H2 sections, and a table or list where the content genuinely calls for one.

Process

How it works

  1. 1

    Pitch first

    Email a two-line summary of the idea and one sentence on why you are the person to write it. Do not send a finished draft up front.

  2. 2

    We reply either way

    You will hear back within a few working days, with a yes, a no, or a suggested angle that would work better.

  3. 3

    Draft and edit

    We edit for clarity and accuracy, never to change your argument. You see the edited version before anything goes live.

  4. 4

    Published with your byline

    Your name, your bio, and a link to your site or profile — attached to the article permanently.
