Be our guest…be our guest blogger!
We receive emails regularly from many of you expressing your interest in writing a blog post on the Answers blog.
As much of our success is down to our amazing community members, we want to extend an offer to all you – the opportunity to volunteer a blog post and have it published on the Answers blog!
Have you ever dreamed of being famous in the US? Then this is your chance! If your blog hits the spot we may even feature it on our sister-blogs in one of the 21 countries where we blog and translate it into some of the 9 languages we operate in.
This is your chance to have your voice heard, and have millions of people read your words! If that isn’t incentive enough, how about an extra 100 points for each post we publish?
How do I become a guest blogger?
Simple – come up with a suggestion or a full blog post and email it to y_answrs_favorites@yahoo.com.
Here are a few tips and rules to follow:
1) What should you write about? – Focus on what would interest the Answers Community. We are open to any subject area, even if only slightly related to Answers. This could include educational, instructional or informative topics. Some examples are as follows:
o Subjects that you may have professional or personal experience in, for example if you have recently planned a wedding, you may want to pitch a topic on “How to organize a wedding?”
o Or you could pitch ideas based on your personal experience on Answers, such as tips on getting the most out of Answers, things that could be improved, and anything that you would like to share with the Answers community.
2) Use correct spelling and grammar. The more understandable your suggestion is, the higher the chance it has to be used or chosen as a possible blog topic.
3) If you use any Answers content in your blog posts, it should adhere to the Community Guidelines.
Finally, the legal bit – your blog will be featured on the site in accordance with our TOS. We reserve the right to translate and make editorial changes to your blog if selected.
We look forward to hearing from you – y_answrs_favorites@yahoo.com

If you can’t write a blog entry, but have a good idea for one that is about ANSWERS then make a suggestion and maybe someone will write one on the subject of your desire.
A place where ‘write this for me’ is WELCOME! LOL
***Seems that a link won’t post here – PINNED thread on the Suggestion board is the place to post your ideas.
ihope i can get the job
I am interested in doing a blog on big families eating healthy on a budget .. I love to study nutrition … cook on a budget .. and make it healthy .. homemade easy (not from a box) fresh meals for my four children, husband and self.. it is so easy to do people don’t even realize that all the pre-processed foods in the box.. and premade meals are way more expensive and ridiculously high in fat.. and I would like to also throw in a bit on family time with exercise and fun
Hello! I have a suggestion to improve the yahoo answers community. I believe it would be an excellent idea to add a feature for people who post questions frequently to be able to delete offensive commentary themselves.
It’s wonderful that the yahoo answers community does deal with cyber bullying and the removal of offensive content. However, I have also witnessed offensive content that has been reported(including expressions of racism) remain on the posters page and not be removed at all, even after being reported.
I believe this would be a great way to make posters more comfortable to post harmless questions without being gutted and attacked just because some of the people answering are having a bad day, just plain cruel and heartless or only logging on to harrass someone else. I hope you will take this idea into consideration.
Thank you for your time!
May I blog about the case of the 15 y/o that will be jailed for “intent of murder” to to the teenager that was physically assaulted?
Thanks a lot for the opportunity
i am a real dead-mouth so while i think that is a fab idea, i don’t want to write one. i’d rather read. i do think that is a kind idea. thanks and truly…happy father’s day whenever it gets here. hugs to you all.
I just submitted an application to start a blog concerning medical, mental, emotional and psychiatric issues. I’m a practicing physician and psychiatrist with over 20 years of experience. If I’m allowed a blog, I hope you will all read and enjoy it.
Thanks for the opportunity,
David

Translation – DO NOT BE CRITICAL OF YA !!
a blog each day by a memeber featured at the heading of each subject area would be nice to see.
This my first time answering, blogging, or voicing an opinion. I would like to discuss our teenagers and parenting of today…I saw a documentary where the retired MD. said that this is our most violent and selfish generation of teenagers ever. I would like to hear from other parents some of their horror/happy stories and how they handled that given situation-and when possible the outcome.
I would like to blog about communication. Everything about constructive and destructive communication practices in relationships, work life and self talk. See my blog.
How to do research might make for a good series of blog posts. Potential entries could include: how to form a good research question, and how to cite sources properly, just to name a couple.
I would like to discuss a better way to get my spouse to be more excited about helping with the kids and housework.
I am pleased to know this. It will be a great opportunity to write for yahoo answer blog.
I’d love to see resolved q&as combined into a blog that could replace the hassle of searching through partial questions and answers with the ease of getting all your answers to related questions in one place.
Sure I’d like to but wouldn’t want to be constrained to just one topic for the blog. Kinda like answers is for everything under the sun, so should a blog here. I like to put a lot of detail in answers usually, but if there is a charachter limit I can chop it down to size. I like to expose things our government likes to put into law that they exclude themselves from, such as the healthcare legislation. Also think the idea about this generations teens and having other parents write in about them is good, but I would take a different angle. I would like to blog about the behaviors and activities kids had in prior generations and compare them to todays kids.
i need a list of the main parts or events in the book skybreaker, like a summary, my teacher wants one but i dont got the book………………………..
For real?
Most of the news that impact peoples’ lives are drowned out by irrelevant chatters, double-speak and outright lies.
I will like to bring to readers news, researches and information that can improve their overall well-being.
I’d write a blog on how to write books. I’ve been writing for three years and I see a lot of new authors on here with the dream but no idea how to start. I’ve rewritten the same answer several times. A blog would be much easier.
I’m a very great blogger you know!
This is great! I have always “dreamed of being famous”, and fame brings money. Blogs written for a big site like Yahoo should bring in the riches, because, well, it’s Yahoo. Which brings me to the question: How much mula is Yahoo paying us to blog with our expertise and time?
I would like on write on environment related topics e.g. how to save environment, ways to save environment, role of common public in saving environment, wildlife, floura and fauna etc…
I love teaching and having students around me most of the day. I have found that my instruction extends far beyond my academic criteria and often dives deeply into other life issues such as: etiquette, bullying, how to mediate, friendships, honesty, loyalty, and just how to get along in life in general. I would love to blog or see blogs for students that deal with specific subjects to help them. I have found it so strange that many parents are not aware of what their own children face on a daily basis, but the teachers they trust do. The blog should be something to help the students and the parents come together in better equipping them to communicate.
I am a great blogger:) I tweet on twitter
I am the parent of an 18 year old daughter who suffers with idiopathic hypersomnia, which is a medical description for someone who sleeps excessively but for no known reason. I’ve had to pull her out of school during her senior year in high school, ask our insurance company to consider her a disabled dependent and take her to countless doctors to try to find a treatment or cure. There’s so little known about sleep disorders that it’s hard to find help, yet this “diagnosis” is more common than narcolepsy. I think there are a huge number of people, especially teenagers, who suffer with this affliction and feel isolated, exhausted and alone. I think it would be a great subject for a blog. Perhaps it can bring together some of these people for a greater sense of normality.
cool cause I am in affiliate marking and I like I would love to be part of it
I’m not seeing a deadline for the submissions. Is there one?
When will I get to use Answers again?
This is a greatest offer given by YAHOO. I am going to write a blogpost about Economy of Pakistan and I wish that it will publish on YAnswerBlog.
