🤖 GEO — Generative Engine Optimisation: Articles published on Cylex can contribute to your visibility in AI-generated search results from tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews — alongside traditional SEO benefits from do-follow links.
Where your article appears on Cylex
Every published article is automatically placed in three locations — no extra steps required.
What article publishing gives you
Article publishing is exclusively for Premium subscribers — here is what is included.
Do-Follow Links
Naturally embed do-follow links within your article. Links are part of the content — not sold separately — and are currently unrestricted in number for new submissions.
AI & GEO Visibility
Articles can contribute to Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) — supporting potential visibility in AI-generated answers on tools like ChatGPT and Google AI. Results vary and are not guaranteed.
Wide Audience Reach
Published on a platform with a large, actively searching audience. Traffic varies by country and sector, but every submission benefits from Cylex's established search presence.
Editorially Reviewed
Every article is reviewed before going live — ensuring your business is presented credibly, factually, and in line with publisher-safe standards.
Ad-Free Profile
Premium removes competitor ads from your listing. Your profile and article appear without distraction, giving visitors every reason to contact you.
Business Profile Boost
Articles sit on your verified, Premium business profile — adding credibility and depth to what potential clients see when they land on your page.

Submission conditions
Every submission is assessed against the following requirements before going live.
What every submitter needs to know
- Articles must relate directly to your business and its services — not general topics or unrelated content.
- Do-follow links are part of the article — they are not sold as a standalone product.
- Your business must be legally registered and operating in the target country.
- Premium subscription is required for article publishing. Standard businesses using our writing service may qualify for 1 month of Premium included free.
- Articles remain on your profile even after Premium expires. Homepage and category visibility requires an active subscription.
- All content is editorially reviewed before going live. Revisions may be requested.
Articles should be written in the primary spoken language of the target country. If your business primarily operates in a different language, exceptions may be considered on a case-by-case basis. Please contact us before submitting in a different language.
How it works
From submission to going live — a four-step process.
Submit or Request Writing
Send your article draft, or ask us to write it. Our team can research and produce publication-ready content on your behalf — contact us to arrange this.
Editorial Review
We check for business relevance, factual accuracy, appropriate tone, and compliance. Adult or sensitive content receives additional verification — allow extra time.
Premium Activation
Pricing and eligibility are confirmed before any payment is taken. Once agreed, Premium Entry is activated and the review process begins.
Published & Live
Your article goes live on your profile, the homepage, and relevant category pages. It stays on your profile permanently; feed visibility requires an active Premium subscription.
Editorial requirements
Submissions that meet these requirements move through review quickly. Those that don't will be returned for revision.
Business Relevance
Content must relate directly to your business and its services. General or unrelated content is not accepted.
Informative Tone
Write to inform, not to sell. Avoid phrases like "best," "world-class," or "unbeatable." The article should feel editorial — useful to someone who hasn't heard of you.
Natural Link Placement
Links must sit within contextual anchor text. Naked URLs and generic anchors such as "click here" are not accepted.
Verifiable Claims
All facts and statistics must be verifiable from your business website or named sources. Do not include unconfirmed awards or vague guarantees.
Legal Registration
The business must be legally registered and operating in the country of the target Cylex platform. Articles publish on that specific business's profile.
Content Depth
Articles must be substantive and publication-ready — clear structure, sufficient depth. Thin content will be returned for expansion.

New online tool shows if you're still affected after a head injury
Coulthursts, law specialists in brain injury compensation claims, have developed a new online questionnaire to help people recognise lingering symptoms linked to a previous concussion — a problem affecting thousands discharged from hospital and told they are fine.
Each year, over one million people attend emergency departments in England and Wales after a head injury. Most are classed as "mild" and sent home, but research shows many continue experiencing symptoms months later. A University of Cambridge study found that 45% still show symptoms six months after injury, even when scans appear normal.
To help people understand whether headaches, memory issues, or mood changes could be linked to a previous injury, Coulthursts launched the Post Concussion Symptom Checker — a five-minute questionnaire at coulthursts.co.uk.
Why this article passed review:
Directly tied to the business
About a tool built by Coulthursts, directly relevant to their service. No unrelated content.
Informative, not promotional
Leads with statistics and genuine public benefit. The business is a credible resource — not "the best" law firm.
Natural link integration
Three contextual do-follow links. No naked URLs, no "click here." Each fits the reading flow naturally.
Written in the platform language
Published on Cylex UK, written in the primary language of the country — as required across all platforms.
Verifiable facts only
Statistics cite named sources (NICE, University of Cambridge). No invented figures or unconfirmed claims.
Frequently asked questions
The most common questions we receive about article publishing on Cylex.
I used to publish articles for free. Why is the Add (+) button gone?▾
Article publishing was recently moved to the Premium plan. If you can no longer see the Add (+) button in your account, it means your current plan no longer includes this feature. You may also see this message in your dashboard: "Turn expertise into visibility. Cylex Premium lets you publish articles that support link building and GEO."
To restore access, upgrade your account to Premium. If you use our article writing service, Premium Entry may be included free for the first month for standard businesses — contact us to confirm eligibility.
Do I need to be a Premium subscriber before submitting?▾
Yes — a Premium subscription is required before an article can be published on Cylex. For standard businesses, you can submit your article or topic first and we will confirm pricing and options before activation. For adult or sensitive business categories, an upfront subscription is required before the process begins.
How much does it cost to publish an article?▾
Article publishing is part of the Cylex Premium subscription — it is not charged separately. The cost depends on your business category, the platform (country), and whether you're also requesting article writing. Pricing is confirmed before any payment is requested.
To view Premium plan options, log in to your account and select your business from the managed companies list. Or contact us for a personalised quote.
Can you write the article for me?▾
Yes. If you don't have an article ready, our team can research and write publication-ready content on your behalf. Just describe your business and the topic you want to cover when submitting the form. Pricing for writing is determined by business category and the nature of the article, and is confirmed before any work begins.
Where exactly will my article appear on Cylex?▾
Your article is published in three locations: your business profile page, the Cylex homepage feed, and relevant category pages. Homepage placement depends on how frequently new articles are published — newer content appears higher. On category pages, visibility lasts up to 12 months or until 6 newer articles in the same category are published.
What happens to my article if I cancel Premium?▾
Your article remains on your business profile page. Homepage visibility depends on how many newer articles have been published since yours — articles are pushed down as new ones appear and there are a limited number of slots. We recommend keeping Premium active to maintain the best possible visibility across the platform.
How long will my article be visible?▾
On your business profile, the article stays as long as the profile exists. Homepage visibility depends on the number of articles published after yours — newer articles are pushed to the front and slots are limited.
Can I include links in my article? How many?▾
Yes — do-follow links are allowed and there is currently no limit on the number for new standard submissions. Links must be placed contextually within the article text, using descriptive anchor text. Naked URLs and generic anchors like "click here" are not accepted. For adult or sensitive businesses, links are subject to additional editorial review.
How long does the review process take?▾
We aim to review standard submissions as quickly as possible — usually within a few business days, though timelines can vary depending on current workload and priorities. Adult or sensitive content requires additional verification and may take longer. You'll be contacted if revisions are needed before publication.
My article was returned for revision. What does that mean?▾
It means the content didn't meet one or more of our editorial requirements — usually around tone (too promotional), relevance (content strays from the business), link placement, or factual accuracy. We'll explain what needs changing. Once revised and resubmitted, it goes back through review.
Can any type of business publish an article?▾
Yes — all legally registered businesses operating in the target country are eligible to publish. This includes adult, age-restricted, and sensitive business categories. The editorial standards and subscription requirements vary by category, but the publishing opportunity is open to all. Adult and sensitive businesses are always welcome — custom rates and dedicated support are available.
The article must always relate directly to the specific business it is published on. General industry content or articles not tied to the registered business are not accepted.
I'm an SEO agency. Can I submit articles on behalf of my clients?▾
Yes. Agencies submitting on behalf of client businesses are welcome. Each article is evaluated individually — the business being represented must be legally registered and the content must relate directly to that business, not to your agency.
We offer special rates for agency partnerships, including up to 50% off for the first 3 months for new partnerships, and volume deals for 6+ articles per month. Get in touch to discuss rates →
What language does the article need to be in?▾
Articles should be written in the primary spoken language of the target country platform. If your business or client primarily operates in a different language, exceptions may be considered on a case-by-case basis. Please contact us before submitting in a non-primary language — the country's language is always preferred.
