OUR THOUGHTS. YOUR THOUGHTS.
We want to make our website as interesting and helpful as possible and posting interesting and helpful blogs and news articles is great way to do that.
Here you'll find a range of posts that talk about all things drinking water related - whether that's specifically about our products or about the world of camping, overlanding, hiking, preparedness, vanlife or just being outside in general. We'll keep coming up with stuff but we'd also like to invite guest blogs - to mix things up a bit.
Send us your blogs
You are welcome to submit your thoughts, recommendations and reviews on just about anything relevant. That can include:
- - Things you wish someone had warned you about before you started
- - Favourite destinations or routes
- - Useful websites that cover aspects of travel (other than water)
- - Helpful hacks that make life on the road easier
- - 'How to...' cope/survive/mend etc.
- - Tips and tricks for newbies
- - Essential camping/motorhome/hiking gear you wouldn't want to be without
...you get the idea. We'd love to receive your submissions and, for anything we post, we'll send you a cheeky contributor's discount code to use on our ranges.
A few rules about guest blogs:
- - What you send us must be your own original, unpublished work - we don't want to get into trouble
- - We'd like photos to go with your article and, again, they need to be your own and anyone in them needs to be happy about having them posted. (Pics aren't a deal breaker - we can use stock images if we have to)
- - We aren't going to post anything that criticises anyone or anywhere - positive vibes only please
- - You can include links to other websites and other products - as long as they aren't in competition with LifeSaver
- - We reserve the right to edit your articles to maintain spelling and grammar standards.
So what are you waiting for? Let the muse take you and get your thoughts and ideas down in an email to marketing@iconlifesaver.com. We look forward to hearing from you!
