Write for CAD notes

We all love to share and give back to our community. That’s why I started a CAD blog at the first place. Many of CAD users join the forum, mailing list and also have blogs. I always get great solutions from CAD gurus on forum like CAD tutor. Some of you tried to write for magazine, write a book, etc. You may have different ways to do it… but we want to share it to the world.

So if you are interested, you can contribute on CAD notes. To help the community.

share

What kind of articles can we contribute?

We don’t limit the articles to a specific topic. Here are some ideas:

  1. You can cover any CAD application, from basic to advanced tutorial.
  2. You can also give productivity tips and troubleshooting tips.
  3. You can write reviews for new version, and new application.
  4. You can share plugins, like AutoLISP program.
  5. You can share blocks or other library.
  6. etc.

However, we don’t accept promotional post.

Publishing policy

We appreciate copyright. You have to post original content. If you already post the article somewhere else, unfortunately we can’t publish it here. However, you can contact us to review it, and we may be able to post an excerpt and link to your post.

We can’t publish if there are any confidential data in your post. If you provide an image or screenshot, make sure that you are allowed to use it. Or if you want to provide a sample CAD file.

Appreciation

As our appreciation to your contribution, you will be mentioned below your post. With your short profile. If you have a website or blog (or facebook page, twitter, etc) we can provide link to your site in your profile. See a sample of guest post here by Paul Munford.

Send your outline first

We don’t have strict rules for publishing a post. As long as it’s useful for the community, we usually just publish it. However, we need to make sure it won’t offend anyone (especially for reviews) and never been published before. We also need to keep the quality of published posts here. Remember, your post will be sent to hundreds of email addresses in our newsletter.

If you are interested, you can send your post outline to info@cad-notes.com.

writing

If you would not be forgotten as soon as you are dead, either write things worth reading or do things worth writing. ~ Benjamin Franklin
