Content Submission Guidelines

Since its inception in 2020, Kinkify has been delivering great content to sex positive vendors and community members every day.

Now we’re opening our doors to you.

We encourage and greatly appreciate thought leaders and industry professionals to share their innovations, experiences and ideas with their peers in the sex and kink industry.

We believe that the sex industry grows stronger when we share our knowledge and experience, and Kinkifyaims to be the conduit of those ideas.

A note on our editing process…

Kinkify might edit your story for grammar, spelling, style and SEO, while doing our best to keep the tone and personality of the piece intact. We’ll try to work with the author on any edits, but cannot make promises they’ll get final editorial control. 

We generally re-write headlines and subheads to conform with our style guide and SEO best practices.

We don’t condone or actively practice censorship, but Kinkify reserves the right to exercise editorial judgement.
