Pitch a relevant resource to a real publisher

A good outreach note explains why a page helps a particular audience.

Applies to live websites.

Before you start

Why it matters

Relevant editorial references can bring visitors and help discovery, but no number of backlinks is required.

Do it step by step

  1. 1

    Find a publication or page that genuinely serves your target audience.

  2. 2

    Read it and identify a clear reason your resource adds value.

  3. 3

    Send a brief, personalized suggestion through its preferred contact channel.

  4. 4

    Track replies and stop when the contact is not interested.

Example

Suggest a current accessibility checklist to an association updating its member resources.

Check your work

The pitch is specific, accurate, and useful even if the publisher declines.

Complete when

You have sent a thoughtful pitch and recorded the outcome; a link is not required to mark the action complete.
