ABOUT US

Get Featured on The Female CEO®

Reach 1.6 million readers across 181 countries — and let us tell your story the way it deserves to be told.

The Female CEO® has been publishing the stories of women in business since 2015. Not watered-down, play-it-safe content — real insight, genuine expertise, and the kind of visibility that actually moves the needle for your brand.

If you've built something worth talking about, we want to help you talk about it. To the right people, on a platform they trust, in a way that lasts.

Here's how it works.

What's included:

  • Your article published on thefemaleceo.com
  • Contributor bio

Frequently Asked Questions About Getting Featured

 

Do I need to be a professional writer for the Contributor Article?

 

Not even slightly. We care about your expertise and your message — we'll handle the polish. As long as your idea is valuable and your voice is genuine, we'll make it shine.

 

Can I pitch a topic before I write the full article?

 

Absolutely. Send us a short pitch and we'll tell you if it's a good fit before you put the work in.

 

 

How long should a contributor article be?

 

800–1,200 words is the sweet spot, but we're flexible if the content is strong.

 

 

Do you accept previously published articles?

 

No. We only publish original, unpublished content. This protects your SEO and ensures your expertise gets the full visibility it deserves on our platform.

 

How long does the review process take?

 

Most articles are reviewed within 3–5 working days.

 

 

Is payment required upfront?

 

Yes. Publication is confirmed once payment is received. For The Podcast and Spotlight features, we'll walk you through the process from there.

 

Is getting featured on The Female CEO good for SEO?

 

Yes. Contributors and features receive a do-follow backlink to their website, which supports your search engine rankings. Being featured also builds your authority as a thought leader, which strengthens how AI tools and search engines perceive your expertise over time.

 

 

Can I submit more than one article?

 

Yes. Many contributors publish with us multiple times throughout the year.
