Write an article, get a free backlink and your own author page.
Bring an idea for a calculator and an article to go with it. You do not have to build the calculator yourself, that part is on me. Right now, in exchange, you get a real backlink, a byline, and an author page on a live site, at no cost.
Free while this program is new. Read the note near the bottom before you assume that lasts forever.
What you actually get out of this
CalculatorPOP is small today, but it is a real, live site with real pages that get crawled and indexed, and every contributor page is built to last. Here is the honest case for spending twenty minutes on a pitch.
A real backlink
A dofollow link back to your site, project, or social profile, placed in your author bio on your own article page.
Your own author page
A byline and short bio that lives on the site permanently, next to your published work, not buried in a comment thread somewhere.
Extra visibility
Your idea gets put in front of anyone who lands on that calculator looking for an answer, not just people who already know your name.
Something to point to
If the site keeps growing, a published, fact-checked piece under your name is a real credit you can put on a CV or portfolio later, not a guess about whether it will still exist.
Pitch it right here
Type your name to see your author page take shape, then drop in your idea and your email. This is a real form, it sends straight over, no separate email needed.
This is a real form, it sends straight to Sroush's inbox, no account needed.
How it works
You bring the idea and the words. I bring the build, the formulas, and the fact checking. Four steps, start to finish.
Send your idea
A calculator topic, a rough outline of the article, and where the backlink should point. Use the form above, no separate email needed.
I build it
A working, fact-checked calculator that matches the rest of the site, formulas verified against a real source before anything goes live.
We assemble the page
Your writing gets formatted next to the calculator, byline attached, author page linked underneath it.
It goes live
Published on the real site, with a link back to whatever you want credited, your site, a project, or a social profile.
Fit, or not a fit
This gets accepted
- A calculator idea with an actual formula behind it, not just a topic you like.
- An article with real specifics: worked examples, sources, edge cases.
- A topic that fits an existing category, or makes a real case for a new one.
- A link destination that is genuinely yours, your site, project, or profile.
- Your own writing, in your own words, sounding like someone who knows the topic.
This gets a pass
- AI-written drafts. It reads differently than someone who actually knows the topic, and it shows.
- A topic with no real formula behind it, just vibes.
- Generic filler that could be pasted under any other calculator with the nouns swapped.
- A link to someone else's site, or one you don't actually run.
- Copy-pasted from an existing article on this site or anywhere else.
Have an idea? Send it over.
This program is free today, it costs you nothing to take part right now, and there is genuinely nothing to lose by pitching early. Worst case, I say it is not a fit. Best case, you get a live page with your name and your link on it, locked in before this ever has a price tag on it.
