About us
We're a media company, best known for our four 'in Plain English' publications: JavaScript in Plain English, AWS in Plain English, Python in Plain English, and Artificial Intelligence in Plain English.
We have also recently launched Venture, Cubed, and Stackademic which tackle entrepreneurship, Web3, and topics related to all programming languages respectively.
Our 'North Star' is explaining complex topics in a simple, accessible manner. However, we still cater to a range of skill levels. So while we may be famous for explaining things "in plain English", newcomers and seasoned professionals alike will find interesting, engaging content in our publications.
FAQs
How do I submit content?
If you're interested in writing for a platform that cumulatively receives over three million views each month, submit your articles by completing this form.
We also love to hear feedback from the community. Whether you're an existing writer or an avid reader, please let us know how we can improve! Do not hesitate to get in touch to let us know what we are doing well and ways that you think we could get better.
Please do not hesitate to contact us by email: hello[at]plainenglish.io.
You can also use that email address if you have any other questions that do not fit into any of the above.
Can I promote products/things in my article?
This depends. If you have a newsletter that you would like to promote, that's fine, feel free to leave a call to action at the bottom of your article. If you have a free service such as a YouTube channel or some Open Source software, you are welcome to do so.
If you are looking to promote a paid service, whether that is a paid course, a subscription, a product, etc, we would appreciate it if you reach out to us beforehand to discuss. In this case, send an email to hello[at]plainenglish.io with a brief outline of your article and what it is that you are looking to promote.
If this is not followed, we will either reject the article or remove the product placement/s. We will also remove any affiliate links.
What happens to your content after it gets added?
After you submit your article, our Editorial team will review your content for errors, typos, mistakes, etc. In the first instance, they will elevate the quality of your content by fixing these.
Sometimes our team may also make minor changes to your content, but this is purely to help improve your content for things such as SEO purposes.
If your content has too many mistakes, or comprehension issues, is of poor quality, or covers a topic that is not relevant to our publications, it may get rejected, in which case we will let you know this.
Before submitting content, we recommend reading our Style Guide --- be sure to read it if you have intentions of writing for us!
Adding your content to our website increases its chances of ranking on the first page of Google (as shown before). This means you get a sustained stream of traffic consisting of unique and returning visitors to your articles (check out the screenshot from our Analytics below).
However, you must bear in mind that your article is only going to rank if it provides more value to the readers compared to other articles on the same topic. Hence, to increase your chances, try to write articles north of 1000 words (1500+ preferably), pack as much value for your reader as possible, and follow the guidelines given in our style guide (mentioned above).
Will I get credited as the author of my article?
Absolutely. Your articles will have your name as the author, linked to your profile page on our site which you will be able to create once we have our blogging platform up and running (very soon).
Will I get paid for my article?
We do not pay writers for publishing content in our publications. We run the publications entirely as a voluntary project.
For now, we offer paid writing opportunities exclusively to writers in our Discord community, which you should join if you're interested. Candidates will be picked based on proficiency in relevant technologies with preference given to top contributors (who submit high-quality technical articles) to our blog.
