Open to guest pieces.
We publish UK personal finance pieces that add value and are worth sharing. Our readers are UK professionals, contractors and high earners who want to understand their finances better, make informed decisions and stay current. If that is ground you know well, send us an idea.
What tends to work
- A human voice. An actual point of view, not "in this article we shall explore".
- Sourced numbers. HMRC, gov.uk, ONS, FCA, rather than another blog.
- The awkward edges. The £100k taper, 62% marginal rates, Scottish bands, student loan overlap. That is where people are actually stuck.
Topics that fit
Not a list to pick from. If you have a strong angle outside these, send it anyway; what matters is that it is specific.
- Tax & thresholds
Personal allowance taper, NI cliffs, student loan plans, HICBC, IR35.
- Take-home pay
What payslips actually say, salary sacrifice, bonus structuring, payroll quirks.
- Investing & ISAs
ISA types, GIA vs ISA, EIS/SEIS for higher earners, tax-efficient investing.
- Pensions
Contribution strategy, annual allowance, tapering, pension salary sacrifice, drawdown basics.
- Contracting & self-employed
IR35, limited company vs umbrella vs PAYE, corporation tax margin relief, dividends.
- Mortgages & property
Affordability, rate structures, additional stamp duty, BTL reality, overpayment math.
- Career & salary
Threshold-aware negotiation, compensation benchmarking, bonus timing, equity basics.
- Money habits
Budgeting that survives contact with real life, saving behaviours, family finances.
What you get
- A byline that sticks. Photo, bio, socials, and an author page listing every piece you have published with us.
- You keep ownership. You grant Salaryon a non-exclusive licence to publish; the work remains yours. After 12 months you can republish anywhere.
- Collaborative editing. We edit with care, flag rather than rewrite, and will not publish anything you have not signed off.
- Rates, if it is a commission. Some pieces are paid and some are not. If yours is one we commission, we agree a rate before you start.
- Reach. Pieces go out across our email list and social channels.
How it works
Send the idea before you write it. A headline and a couple of sentences on the angle is plenty. We would rather shape a piece together than read a finished draft we cannot use. Most run 1,000 to 1,500 words. We edit by flagging rather than rewriting, and nothing goes live until you have signed it off.
Send us an idea.
Email editorial@salaryon.com. If you have written something before that you are proud of, link it. We read everything that comes in.
