Tips
for effective pitching
Before
you pitch any of these locales, read the rules painstakingly and concentrate
the posts they've as of now run. Ensure you either have a crisp point or
another method for investigating an issue they've secured some time recently.
Paying
markets are more focused than posting on free locales. What's more, the all the
more awful pitches a site gets, the likelier they will reevaluate whether they
even acknowledge visitor posts, not to mention pay for them. (Trust me, this
happens, and it is the reason a few locales we've recorded before are no longer
tolerating pitches.)
