About

Welcome to e[lust]! If you’re a sex blog writer who wants more relevant traffic/site visitors and general blog exposure, you should join!

Each digest is published every two weeks on Tuesdays.

Shortly after each edition is published, submissions will open again for the next edition. A notification post will appear on the site with a link to the submission form page.  When the submission period is closed, that post will self-destruct. The deadline will be clearly stated on the request for submissions post. If your entry follows the basic rules of content and post time-frame, then your post will be included in the next digest.

To be informed and active you should subscribe to the RSS feed – this will notify you when e[lust] is open for submissions and when the latest digest is out.

The Rules:

• Your post must contain mostly original content.
• Your post may not contain solely a photo or audio/video clip. If original content writing is accompanied by a photo or clip, then it will be accepted.
• No product review posts. Every digest will have a link to the previous edition of Pleasurists, which is a round-up of adult product reviews. I encourage you to submit your review posts to Pleasurists once per week; hopefully it will soon be the place that any prospective sex toy buyer goes for more information before they spend their money.
• Your post must have been published on your blog during the time period listed on the request for submissions post.
• One submission per blog per digest. This rule will change to one per author on legitimate multi-author blogs.
• No commercial content or commercial blogs/sites. If you have a question on what exactly falls into that tag, just ask me or check out the updated FAQ page
• You must post the digest that your post is included in within 7 days of its publication. If you’re found to be late, we’ll let you know. If you still don’t post it in a timely manner, then all participants will be instructed to remove your post link from the digest on their site OR you will not be allowed to participate in future editions until you post the digest you were late on. The route taken on this is at the discretion of the editor.
• You must publish the full digest. You may, however, use the “read more” tag after the top portion. In WordPress’s editor this is included as an icon that looks like two boxes separated by a dashed line. For blogspot, bloggers will need to do a one-time edit of their css code to be able to use the “read more” tag. HERE is a very easy 4-step explanation (with screenshots) on how to do this. If you still have questions, feel free to email us at  questions.e.lust@nospamgmail.com.
• You must include a valid email address in the submission form; also you must include the direct link to your post, not just to your blog’s main page (by clicking on the title of your post from your main page you’ll be taken to the post’s direct link).
