If you’d like to publish your article on the HOSTiQ.ua blog, there are three main ways to do it:
Cross-promotion. You post your article on our blog, and we post ours on yours. This works well if our target audiences are similar and your blog has solid traffic (evaluated individually by our SEO specialists).
Guest post. Write a valuable article for our blog to reach a new audience and enhance your brand’s visibility. Your article should not include direct promotion of your services.
Sponsored content. We accept paid submissions but still filter for relevance to ensure the material benefits our readers. For more details, visit our Paid content section.
Please note: the HOSTiQ.ua blog is available in Ukrainian and russian. We do not have an English version at the moment. However, we can assist with editing your article in Ukrainian.

How to write
Here are the main guidelines for your article:
Originality. The content must be unique. We do not accept previously published articles or rewrites.
Usefulness. Your material should offer practical value to readers. We prefer how-to guides, step-by-step instructions, case studies and other actionable content.
Credibility. Support your claims with evidence — cite primary sources, include screenshots and share real data.
Your article should have a clear structure, including an introduction, main body and conclusion. Use headings and subheadings, incorporate bullet points, graphs, charts or tables where appropriate.
Please be prepared for your article to undergo several rounds of editing. We prioritize quality for the benefit of you, us and our readers.
To minimize revisions and save time, please read our editorial guidelines before submitting your article. The guidelines are written in Ukrainian, so you may need to use a web translator. We apologize for any inconvenience.
We do not include links to your business in the main body of a guest post unless this has been agreed upon in advance. At the end of the article, we will credit the author and their place of work.
For extra visibility, we will promote your article in our newsletter and on HOSTiQ’s social media.
