Best blogs that accept guest posts from developers

Here are some of the better places to pitch guest posts if you’re a developer and want to reach other developers:

1. DEV Community — very easy to publish, strong developer audience, and good for tutorials, lessons learned, and opinion pieces. (dev.to)
2. HackerNoon — editorially curated, good reach, and a common destination for technical guest-style articles. (dev.to)
3. In Plain English — a developer blog network with curated contributor posts and strong distribution. (dev.to)
4. freeCodeCamp — highly curated and excellent reach, but harder to get accepted. (dev.to)
5. Hashnode — great if you want a developer-first blogging platform with built-in audience and personal blog ownership. (dev.to)
6. Stackademic — another curated educational publication for dev tutorials and practical writing. (dev.to)
7. SIGSOFT Blog — good if you write about software engineering research, practice, or engineering lessons. They accept proposals and require editorial approval. (sigsoft.medium.com)
8. Google Cloud / official vendor blogs with contributor programs — useful if your writing is about cloud, tooling, or developer experience, but these are usually more selective. (cloud.google.com)

A practical short list to start with:

• Easiest: DEV Community, Hashnode
• Best balance of reach + credibility: In Plain English, HackerNoon
• Hardest but most prestigious: freeCodeCamp, SIGSOFT Blog

If you want, I can also give you:

• a list by topic (web dev, AI/ML, backend, DevOps, security),
• sites that explicitly have “write for us” pages, or
• a pitch template you can use to submit guest posts.
