Topics We Cover
Most of our audience consists of individuals and teams, from different organizational departments, who are looking for tips, best practices, and guides on how to work and collaborate visually. As we aim to build a reputable library of information and insights that they can refer to improve and streamline their workflows, we only accept clear, compelling content falling into the following categories,
- Genograms & Healthcare Workflows – Focused on healthcare-related visual workflows, including genograms, patient journey maps, and healthcare documentation.
- Business Planning – Used for strategic planning and business analysis, including OKRs, strategic initiatives, roadmaps, and SWOT frameworks.
- Architecture & Design – Designed for software and technical architecture, including UML diagrams, ERDs, database models, and software architecture blueprints.
- Diagrams & Whiteboards – The broader, general-purpose Creately experience for collaborative whiteboarding, brainstorming, diagrams, and visual workspaces.
- Process Management – Used for flowcharts, SOPs, BPMN, and operational workflows for scalable process standardization.
- Org & People Planning – Designed for organizational structures and workforce planning, including org charts, people structures, and workforce operations.
- Cloud & Infrastructure – Focuses on technical and cloud infrastructure visualization, including cloud architecture diagrams, AWS infrastructure maps, and technical systems documentation.
- Audit & Compliance – Supports audit and compliance documentation, particularly for SOC 2 and ISO 27001, with centralized visual documentation workflows.
The Benefits
- Exposure to a massive audience: The blog gets 100,000+ visitors per month and is increasing steadily. All high-quality articles are included in our monthly newsletter as well, bringing your piece in front of a wider audience who will read and reshare your content.
- A high-authority dofollow backlink that strengthens your site’s SEO: Since the link is placed naturally within the article itself, it reads as an authentic editorial mention rather than a paid placement — carrying far more SEO weight and boosting your domain authority over time.
- Association with a trusted, recognized brand: Creately is a widely used diagramming and visual collaboration tool, so being published on its blog lends your article — and you or your business — instant credibility by association.
- Networking and future opportunities: Getting published positions you as a known, quality contributor, opening the door to future collaborations.
| Due to the high volume of guest post requests we receive, submissions are now managed by a third party. If your content aligns with Creately’s requirements and is relevant to our audience, the relevant team will review it and contact you directly. |
