Editorial Director & Medical Review Lead
As Managing Editor at CureCartDirect, I personally oversee all editorial inquiries and guest content submissions.

I personally review every article to ensure it delivers real value to our readers.
Got a Health Story That Could Change Someone's Day?
There's real power in spilling what actually worked for you. Maybe you cracked the code on stress without losing your mind, found workouts that don't wreck your old knee injury, or stumbled on food swaps that legit made you feel better. Your story's got weight because you lived it.
Health isn't just pills and doctor visits. It's the everyday stuff—the choices you stick with, the habits you grind out, the little tweaks that add up to not feeling like crap. The best tips often come from someone who's been in the trenches, not some expert quoting a textbook.
What We're Looking For?
Real-Deal Stories, Not Fancy Degrees
We want your messy, lived-in truth, not a lecture from someone who Googled "health hacks." If you've wrestled with chronic pain and found a way to cope, that beats a PhD's theory any day.
Stuff That Actually Works
Tell us the practical wins—the oddball sleep trick, the dead-simple meal prep that doesn't suck, or the workout you don't hate doing. Skip the fluffy advice that sounds cool but crashes and burns in real life.
No Fake Success BS
Be straight-up about what flopped. If you tried ten things before landing on something good, say so. Health's not a cookie-cutter deal, and we respect the honesty.
Help Without the Holier-Than-Thou Vibe
Write like you're chatting with a friend who's struggling, not preaching from a soapbox. Nobody needs a know-it-all; they need someone who gets it.
Keep It Clear, No Jargon
Break down the complicated stuff so anyone can follow. You don't need a medical dictionary to explain what helped you—make it easy for people to get their options.
Who We Welcome as Contributors

Content Guidelines:
Create content that connects and provide value to our audience
Share Your Actual Experience
Write about health challenges you've personally faced, solutions you've tried, or lifestyle changes you've made. First-hand experience beats textbook knowledge every time.
Give People Something They Can Use
Include specific steps, exact products you tried, or detailed explanations of how you implemented changes. Vague advice like "eat better" doesn't help anyone.
Know Who You're Talking To
Are you writing for new parents dealing with sleep deprivation? People managing chronic conditions? Busy professionals trying to stay healthy? Focus on specific audiences.
Back Up Your Claims
If you mention research or statistics, link to actual sources. If you're sharing personal experience, be clear about what worked for you specifically.
Start With What Matters
Lead with the problem you solved or the outcome you achieved. People want to know if your approach is worth their time before they invest in reading about it.
Make It Easy to Follow
Use clear headings, break up long paragraphs, and organize information so people can find what they need quickly.
Content We Skip Or We May Ignore
Generic Health Lists
Articles with titles like "10 Ways to Be Healthier" that could apply to anyone and help no one specifically.
Unproven Health Claims
Miracle cures, dangerous weight loss methods, or treatments that haven't been properly researched or tested.
Outdated Medical Information
Health advice based on old research, discontinued treatments, or superseded medical guidelines.
Pure Product Promotion
Articles that exist mainly to sell supplements, devices, or services rather than genuinely help readers.
Dangerous DIY Medical Advice
Content that encourages people to self-diagnose, skip professional medical care, or try potentially harmful treatments.
Overly Technical Medical Content
Research paper summaries or clinical discussions that don't translate into practical guidance for regular people.
Fear-Based Health Content
Articles designed to scare people about health risks without providing balanced, helpful information.
Plagiarized or Recycled Content
Health information copied from other sources or generic content that's been published elsewhere.
What We Absolutely Reject
Generic AI-Generated Content
We can spot artificial intelligence-written health articles immediately. Content that reads like it was generated by ChatGPT or similar tools gets deleted without review. We want human experience, not robot regurgitation.
Backlink-Focused Articles
Health content written solely to get links back to websites, products, or services has no place here. If your primary goal is SEO rather than helping people with their health, don't bother submitting.
Copy-Paste Medical Information
Articles that simply rewrite information from medical websites, textbooks, or other health sources without adding personal insight or practical application.
Dangerous Health Misinformation
Content promoting unproven treatments, anti-vaccine rhetoric, or advice that could harm people's health gets rejected immediately.
These aren't strict rules, but they help us understand what kind of content works best for our readers.
Requirements & Submission Process
Research and Citations
Back up health claims with credible sources from medical journals, health organizations, or peer-reviewed research. Personal experience is valuable, but combine it with solid evidence.
What makes a good citation: Link to original studies from reputable institutions like NEJM, The Lancet, or government health databases. We prefer primary sources over news articles about studies. When citing personal experience, clearly distinguish it from researched facts.
Citation format: Include in-text links to sources and compile a reference list at the article's end. Each health claim needs backing - readers deserve to verify what they're reading.
Writing Style Requirements
Write in a conversational tone that's easy to understand. Avoid medical jargon unless necessary, and always explain technical terms clearly when you use them.
The sweet spot: Write like you're explaining to a smart friend who isn't in healthcare. If you mention "systolic pressure," immediately clarify it's the top number in blood pressure readings.
Tone guidelines: Be warm but authoritative. Share knowledge without talking down. Use "you" and "we" naturally. Break complex processes into digestible steps. Real examples beat abstract explanations every time.
Structure tips: Short paragraphs (3-4 sentences max), bullet points for lists, subheadings every 300-400 words, and conclusion that gives clear next steps.
Original Content Policy
All submissions must be completely original and unpublished elsewhere. We check for plagiarism and duplicate content across the internet.
What this means: Your article must be written specifically for CureCartDirect. We run every submission through multiple plagiarism checkers including Copyscape and academic databases.
Acceptable references: You can quote sources (with proper attribution), reference your own previously published work briefly, and build upon existing research. What's not okay: repurposing your old articles, spinning existing content, or submitting something you've posted on Medium, LinkedIn, or your blog.
After publication: You retain author rights but grant us exclusive first publication rights for 90 days. After that, you can republish elsewhere with a canonical link back to our original.
Editorial Process
Expect feedback within 3-5 business days. Our health editorial team includes medical professionals who verify accuracy and safety of all health advice before publication.
Stage 1 - Initial Review (Day 1-2): Dr. Rabeya Tufail personally screens submissions for relevance, quality, and alignment with our guidelines. About 40% of articles need revisions at this stage.
Stage 2 - Medical Verification (Day 2-4): For health claims requiring expertise, our specialist network reviews accuracy. This includes checking dosages, treatment protocols, and ensuring advice aligns with current medical standards.
Stage 3 - Editorial Polish (Day 4-5): Final edits for clarity, SEO optimization, and reader engagement. We'll add internal links, optimize headings, and ensure your unique voice shines through.
Communication: You'll receive detailed feedback at each stage. We believe in collaborative editing - your expertise combined with our editorial standards creates the best content.
Author Benefits
Approved contributors receive author bylines, professional bio sections, and one relevant backlink to their health-related website or practice. Regular contributors may be invited to join our expert contributor network.
Your author profile includes: Professional headshot, 100-word bio highlighting your expertise, link to your website or practice (dofollow after 3 approved articles), and social media links if relevant.
Exposure benefits: Your content reaches our 50,000+ monthly readers. Articles are promoted across our social channels. Top performers get featured in our newsletter reaching 15,000 subscribers.

Attribution: Every article displays "Medically reviewed by Dr. Rabeya Tufail and team" alongside your byline, adding credibility to your work.
Article Length and Quality
Submit comprehensive articles between 1,500-2,500 words that thoroughly address specific health topics. Quality matters more than quantity - we'd rather have 1,500 well-researched words than 3,000 words of filler content. So no word count limit.
The reality check: While we mention 1,500-2,500 words as a guide, exceptional content matters more than hitting numbers. A brilliant 1,200-word piece beats a padded 2,500-word article.
What comprehensive means: Cover the topic thoroughly - background, current approaches, practical applications, potential risks, and actionable takeaways. Readers should leave feeling informed and empowered.
Depth indicators we look for: Multiple perspectives considered, common misconceptions addressed, real-world examples included, step-by-step guidance where applicable, and "what to do next" section.
Format flexibility: Long-form guides, personal case studies, how-to articles, myth-busting pieces, or condition management strategies - choose what best serves your message.
