CDOIQ Symposium Guest Blogger Guidelines
As a media partner with the 18th Annual CDOIQ Symposium, govCDOiq.org is happy to offer sponsors and presenters the opportunity to extend their visibility and thought leadership through a guest blog post on the govCDOiq blog.
You are welcome to write about the solutions and key messages you will feature at the CDOIQ Symposium. We will promote your blog post to our highly focused LinkedIn audience of 1,000+ federal CDOs and data leaders. The CDOIQ Program will also promote your posts to their large audience via LinkedIn and email.
Characteristics of an ideal govCDOiq.org blog post include:
- Written for and specifically relevant (or interesting) to federal data and AI leaders
- 700-1,500 words, organized into easy-to-understand subsections (with citations if necessary)
- Little to no AI-generated content – we strive to present original, expert insights to the federal data community (per emerging government guidelines, we will label all AI-generated content as such)
- A short, engaging, and benefits-oriented headline
- Links within the post to relevant online resources
- 1 or 2 high-quality illustrations or to help convey your main ideas and make your post more visually appealing (usage rights required; AI-generated images are fine, as long as we label them as such)
Our Easy Editorial Process
- Send us your blog post ideas via email to editor@govcdoiq.org or fill out the blogger interest form, along with a tentative date you want the blog post to be published.
- We will contact you to discuss your submission, answer any questions you have about the process, and schedule a tentative publication date.
- Send us your blog post in a Word document or email, along with any images you want to include.
- We’ll also need the author’s name, title, contact info, medium-sized photo, and a 1-2 paragraph bio.
- If you wish, we will review your draft post promptly and offer any minor editorial suggestions. But we want your voice and your ideas to shine through.
- Together we will finalize your post and schedule it for publication.
- After publication, we will promote your post on our home page and via social media.
