Swearing

3) Don't use the guest blogging for over plugging brands or advertising (we offer a great service for business listings and advertising btw). However, if you have a new business opening within the Eastleigh Borough and a huge launch looming, we will be happy to receive articles about your open day and/or promotions for your business! See it like a press release!
