We hold guest content to the same bar as our own
VaaSBlock’s readers come to us for verified, well-sourced coverage of Web3 risk, compliance, and infrastructure. Anything published under our name has to earn that trust, whether we wrote it or you did.
That means original data, a clear point of view, and claims that hold up to fact-checking. We’re not a wire service for press releases, and we don’t publish content that exists mainly to plant a link.
If your work meets that standard, we’ll place it, fact-check it, and back it with our own editorial credibility and backlinks.
Placement options at a glance
- Full editorial placement: 3,000+ word original-research articles, live with backlinks, for a $500 editorial and fact-checking fee.
- Press release / shorter placement: Shorter pieces or press releases without a unique thesis, starting at $1,200.
- Link swap and guest posting: Considered case by case, with discounts off the rates above for partners who meet our traffic criteria.
Three ways to get published
Pick the tier that fits what you’re bringing us.
1. Full editorial placement — $500
For articles of at least 3,000 words built on first-party data, covering a topic VaaSBlock already writes about, with a thesis that’s genuinely well-supported. We edit, fact-check, and publish it live on the site with backlinks. The $500 fee covers our editorial and fact-checking work.
2. Press release / shorter placement — from $1,200
For shorter articles or press releases that don’t bring a unique, well-supported point of view. We can still place these, but pricing starts at $1,200 to reflect the lighter editorial contribution on our side.
3. Link swap and guest posting
We’ll consider link swaps and guest posts on a case-by-case basis, and they can come with a discount off the tiers above when a partner meets our traffic criteria (see below).
Tier 3 Requirements
What qualifies a link swap or guest post
Because a link swap trades our editorial space and link equity for yours, we need evidence that the trade runs both ways. To be considered, you’ll need to show us:
A 90-day Google Search Console screenshot or report showing higher clicks than vaasblock.com.
Server logs showing higher-performing traffic from major LLM crawlers than VaaSBlock gets — in other words, more AI crawler activity than we see on our own site.
In practice, this arrangement tends to work best with research firms, whose reports and data already draw the kind of crawler and search attention we’re looking for. When both criteria are clearly met, the cost is often reduced to nothing.
Write For Us FAQs
-
What topics do you accept?
Topics VaaSBlock already covers: Web3 risk and compliance, crypto payments, RMA™ and audit standards, and related infrastructure and industry analysis. If you’re not sure your topic fits, ask us before you write.
-
What counts as “first-party data”?
Data you or your organization generated or gathered directly — original surveys, on-chain analysis, proprietary datasets, or research findings. Aggregated commentary on other people’s data doesn’t qualify for Tier 1 pricing.
-
Do you fact-check submissions?
Yes. Every Tier 1 placement goes through our own editorial and fact-checking process before it goes live, which is what the $500 fee covers. We may ask you for sourcing or supporting evidence before publishing.
-
Can I include backlinks?
Yes, Tier 1 placements go live with backlinks. Link placement and anchor text still need to serve the reader, not just the destination site, so we review them as part of editing.
-
How does Tier 3 pricing actually work?
Show us a 90-day Google Search Console report with higher clicks than vaasblock.com, plus server logs showing more LLM crawler traffic than we get, and we’ll discount off our standard rates — often down to no charge at all when both are clearly met.
-
Do you accept AI-generated submissions?
We care about accuracy and originality, not the tools you used to get there. Submissions still need a well-supported thesis and real data behind them, and they go through the same fact-checking regardless of how they were drafted.
