Write for Us
Course Torch publishes a small number of guest guides from people who know a subject well and have used online courses to learn it or teach it. If that sounds like you, send us a pitch at hello@coursetorch.com.
What topics do we want?
- Career paths built with online courses, such as data analysis, UX design, IT support or cybersecurity.
- How to study a hard subject online: Python, SQL, machine learning, project management.
- Exam preparation for recognised certifications.
- Honest comparisons of learning approaches, such as self-paced courses versus structured certificates.
We do not publish general productivity tips, listicles built from sales pages, or posts that promote one provider.
What are our standards?
- Original writing only. No text published elsewhere, and no unedited AI drafts.
- Facts you can source. Prices, exam details and course contents must link to the official page.
- Honesty about experience. Say what you did yourself and what you researched. Do not claim to have finished a course you have not.
- Plain English for a general reader, with concrete examples, numbers and names.
- A clear answer to the reader’s question near the top.
Our editors edit every guest piece for accuracy, clarity and our house style. We may ask for changes, or decline a draft that does not fit. Published guides carry the writer’s name.
Do we sell links or sponsored posts?
No. We do not accept payment for links, guest posts or placements, and we do not publish posts with paid or affiliate links added by the writer. Any links in a guest guide go to official sources or to our own pages, chosen by our editors. Our affiliate disclosure explains the only way Course Torch earns money.
How do you pitch?
- A working title and two or three sentences on the reader’s problem and your answer.
- A short note on your experience with the subject.
- Two links to things you have written.
If you expect a fee for your work, say so in your pitch, and we will tell you up front whether we can offer one. To see the kind of writing we publish, read our review method and our course rankings.
