FAQs
We look for authentic, engaging, and locally-focused content that helps people discover the absolute best of Cebu. We love pieces that fit into these categories:
- Hidden Gems & Guides: Lesser-known spots, beaches, or trails across Cebu.
- Food & Culture: Reviews of local cafes, unique dining experiences, or cultural spotlights.
- Itineraries & Activities: Practical advice on how to spend a weekend or a week in specific Cebu municipalities.
- Local Perspectives: Inspiring stories about Cebuano artisans, history, or community life.
Yes, definitely! Visual storytelling is highly valued here. Whether you are a photographer capturing local life or a digital artist with a unique perspective, we welcome visual submissions. If you are submitting art or photos, please just include a short paragraph or descriptive captions to provide context for our audience.
Absolutely! We love working with prolific and enthusiastic creators. If you have multiple ideas, please feel free to share them. To help our editorial team review them efficiently, we just ask that you submit each pitch separately through the form or clearly format them as distinct concepts.
We love supporting local businesses and entrepreneurs! However, to maintain editorial integrity for our readers, we do not accept articles that are purely promotional or read like advertisements. If you want to share a genuine story—such as the inspiration behind your local brand, a unique craft you are reviving, or community-driven efforts—we would love to hear your pitch.
Note: If you are an SEO agency, digital marketer, or external brand looking to submit content solely for backlink placements or sponsored features, please visit our [Get Featured Page] instead.
We deeply value authentic, human perspectives and real local expertise. While we don’t mind if you use AI tools for brainstorming, outlining, or proofreading, we do not accept content that is entirely AI-generated or copy-pasted from an AI assistant. Submissions should be written in your own unique voice and reflect genuine experiences.
Currently, Cebu Finds operates on a voluntary, community-driven basis. While we don’t offer monetary compensation or royalties at this stage, contributing is a fantastic way to share your voice, showcase your expertise, and build your digital portfolio. Every published piece includes a dedicated author bio with links back to your personal website or social media profiles to help boost your reach.
You do. You retain the ultimate copyright to your intellectual property, photos, and writing. By publishing with us, you simply grant Cebu Finds a royalty-free, non-exclusive right to host the piece on our website and feature snippets or imagery across our official social media channels and newsletters to help amplify your work.
We review all submissions thoroughly to see if they align with our current editorial calendar and content gaps. Our team typically responds within 5 to 7 business days to let you know if your pitch has been accepted. If you haven’t heard from us by then, feel free to send a gentle follow-up email to check on your status!
Please don’t be discouraged! We receive a variety of submissions, and sometimes a great pitch just doesn’t align with our current themes, seasonal focus, or immediate content plans. If we pass on a pitch, it isn’t a reflection of your talent. We highly encourage you to review our contributor guidelines and try again with a different angle or a brand-new concept!
Because content removal can cause broken links and disrupt our website’s structure and search engine indexing, we generally do not take down published articles. However, if you need to update your author bio, change a personal website link, or anonymize your name in the future, our editorial team is more than happy to help you make those adjustments.
