NTEN's free monthly e-newsletter, NTEN Connect, is full of resources on the latest nonprofit technology issues from leaders in the field. It goes out to more than 30,000 of the most influential leaders and innovators in the world of nonprofit technology. NTEN Connect had an average open rate of 25% in 2010, with an average of 8% unique clicks per issue.

Guest blog posts published by NTEN determine the content of the newsletter. NTEN accepts case studies, how-tos, tips, and general interest pieces about nonprofit technology, tied to our theme for the month. (Review themes at http://www.nten.org/newsletter/advertising.)

Please note that any piece you submit must be free of product placement or promotion of your company. We generally do not publish more than 2 pieces by any one organization in a calendar year, to ensure a diversity of community voices. Unsolicited articles are subject to the approval of NTEN for inclusion on our blog. NTEN reserves the right to reject any material that does not follow our editorial guidelines and to edit accepted pieces as it sees fit.

Unless otherwise agreed, all articles will be published under a Creative Commons-Attribution license; anybody may re-post your work, as long as they note and link back to the original.

Being published on the NTEN blog doesn't guarantee publication in the NTEN Connect newsletter. The NTEN community decides the content, based on how they interact with all of the guest articles NTEN publishes that month (in terms of page views, time on page, comments, and social media mentions).
