Submit Articles

Please send articles and article ideas for review to Stephanie Mitchell

First and foremost, a HUGE thank you. We greatly appreciate your interest in wanting to be a guest author and submit an article for Pursuit Magazine. Our E-zine is based on a foundation of reader-submitted work by people like yourself. We welcome unsolicited articles, and we encourage you to familiarize yourself with our publishing goals.

Pursuit Magazine is an online publication with an international readership available in 7 different languages currently reaching over 7,000 unique visitors a day.  We regularly cover the following subject areas:

• Investigation Techniques
  Legal and Ethical Issues
  Emerging Trends
  Important News Stories
  Agency Marketing and Advertising
  New Technology
  Investigative Tools
  Internet Resources
  Legal Research

Our goal at Pursuit Magazine is to provide helpful, educational, information that EMPOWERS our readers to make changes when necessary and supports them in being their own experts in this competitive yet rewarding industry.

So what kind of articles are we looking for?

We favor articles that have a strong point of view and come from the writer’s heart, subjects that may be challenging or evocative but relevant to the investigations industry. We like educational articles, teaching something new or perhaps conveying an idea or technique you have learned over the years.  We also take great pride in publishing well-researched, extensively documented articles. If your article is an advertisement, “or advertorial,” please see our advertising and advertorial guidelines.

When submitting an article, please use the most up to date research and be sure to check your sources. Our choice of articles depends on the other material we have published on the subject, how new the topic is to us and how unique the article is to the professions we support. Your article will be edited and fact-checked before being published in Pursuit.

We recommend that articles are, at a minimum, 500 words.

When submitting an electronic file, please save your article as a Word Document and e-mail it to us as an attachment. We accept hard copy submissions in the mail, but prefer to receive submissions via email.

Please include a brief bionote (1-4 sentences) and any contact information you wish to include at the end of your submission so that we can include it if your article is used. An URL back to your website is highly recommended and pays great dividends to our authors!

At this time, Pursuit does not pay for articles, but we do repay our authors with a valuable advertising opportunity by including a short bio, a link to your website and any contact information that you specify with your article.

In addition to reaching more than 7,000 unique visitors everyday, did you know there are currently over 8,700 people that subscribe to the Pursuit Magazine RSS feed? Over 4,000 others get immediate notification of new articles via our extensive social networking, too. Unlike magazines and industry newsletters that get thrown away when the reader is through with it, your article and contact information will remain online as long as we are in business. Additionally, we very often grant permission to other online and offline outlets to syndicate our articles as well, meaning increased exposure of your name and business on a viral scale.  Publishing with us means immediate, massive and permanent exposure!

Being published in an industry trade journal like Pursuit Magazine is great for marketing, networking, search engine placement and getting your name out there!  Again, unlike with traditional magazines, when you write an article for PursuitMag.com it will continue to work for you for years to come- as long as our website is operational and people are reading past issues!

If your article is accepted by our executive editor, you also grant Pursuit Magazine permission to promote it by using your article in different mediums, keeping all contact and bio information intact.

Our procedure is to read and respond to articles within two to four business days of receiving them. Please be patient for our reply. Sometimes, our hardest task is not being able to publish all of the articles we receive. We try to be honest in our replies, but it is not always possible to provide in-depth feedback. We evaluate all articles in light of the other articles we have on hand, when we last covered the subject, and our readers’ interest in the subject matter. Returning an article is not a personal rejection; it is merely a practical consideration.

Lastly, familiarize yourself with Pursuit Magazine. We are more likely to publish your article if you are a Pursuit reader and are familiar with the issues we discuss. Think about the subjects you know well and those that are not over-exposed. The “Feature Articles” and “Industry Articles” sections of the magazine is a good place to find topics of interest to our readers.

Thank you for your submission!
