Free route community
Researched from public pages — no submission was run · sources read 2026-09-26. Rules change — recheck the platform's own pages before submitting.
Requirements
- Free Changelog account (sign in/up) — the submission form needs a profile for attribution/notification
- Submit News takes: URL, title, and 'What's interesting about it?' (markdown)
- Explicitly rejected: how-to/tutorials, commercial products/services (use Sponsorship), reader-hostile websites, podcast suggestions (use /request)
- Developer-news audience — 'if your fellow devs will find it interesting, submit it'; submitting your own work is allowed and encouraged
- Paid sponsorship is separate and substantial ($200–$3,000/wk depending on show)
Prepare before opening the form
- A genuinely interesting dev-facing link — OSS release, technical writeup, dev tool of substance
- A free account
- A compelling 'what's interesting' pitch — they get a lot of submissions
Workflow
- Sign in/up at changelog.com
- Open changelog.com/news/submit
- Submit URL + title + 'what's interesting' (markdown supported)
- If published you're notified by email — no response means not picked
- For commercial promotion use the Sponsorship page instead ([email protected])
Watch for
- Commercial product promotion in Submit News is explicitly rejected — pure product pitches will be declined; open-source/dev-interest angles only
- The catalog's stored URL was the sponsor-pricing page — the free editorial route is /news/submit
- High volume — no notification unless published
- The Changelog network also runs podcasts; 'Request Episode' is a different form at /request
What counts as live
The submission is published on Changelog News (changelog.com/news) and you're emailed
Not verified
- Editorial review time for news submissions
- Whether Changelog++ membership affects submission consideration
