Can you get featured in Female First?
Female First introduces consumer brands, restaurants, practitioners and authors to readers making everyday choices.
Because lifestyle touches almost every consumer business, a publication like Female First is pitched from all directions. Owners who try on their own often find that a thoughtful email about a restaurant, a product or a book goes unanswered for months. A guaranteed placement removes that uncertainty: the piece is arranged with the publication in advance, you approve the draft, and it publishes on femalefirst.co.uk inside a written window, usually one to three days. It is a real article on the site that you can put in a proposal, a deck or a profile.
What Female First covers
Lifestyle coverage is about choices, and Female First helps its readers in the United Kingdom make them. A publication of this kind writes about where to eat and stay, what to cook, how to arrange a home, how to travel well and how to look after family, relationships and oneself. It also introduces the businesses and individuals behind those choices, from a neighborhood restaurant to a first-time author.
The tone is friendly and grounded, written for readers who want honest ideas and not a sales pitch. A feature keeps their interest when it is specific about the experience and modest in its promises. Profiles of owners, makers, practitioners and writers belong beside guides and recommendations, as long as the story is true to life, has a person at its center and offers something a reader can use.
Who reads Female First
Lifestyle readers read with their own plans in mind, and that is the audience Female First serves in the United Kingdom. They want recommendations they can act on and people they can relate to. Coverage in this category also works as a discovery tool for others: stockists looking for products, planners looking for venues and experts, and producers looking for guests.
What makes it work is relevance. Your story appears in a publication about everyday living, read by people thinking about their own. For a small or local business, that is recognition customers understand at a glance. For a practitioner, a coach or a writer, it is a published reference that shows your experience and approach to the people considering working with you.
Coverage that speaks to buyers in the United Kingdom
The British market rewards familiarity. A feature in Female First shows readers in the United Kingdom that your business is part of the conversation where they live and work. That is useful when you are selling to customers there, approaching retailers or distributors, or answering the quiet background check that most buyers run before they respond to an offer.
Coverage in the United Kingdom is typically sought by firms in finance, property, law, technology, retail and hospitality, together with founders and advisers who want a stronger profile at home. American and European companies setting up a British subsidiary or looking for local customers are also regular clients.
Who a Female First feature is a good fit for
Female First suits businesses and people who make everyday life better in some specific way.

What makes a story pitch-ready for Female First
Lifestyle readers want something they can try and a person they can relate to.
Lifestyle stories do well when they meet the reader at the right time of year. A piece tied to a season, a holiday, a new menu, a publication date or a travel period feels timely, while the same piece without that connection can drift. Add one vivid detail about how you work, and a Female First reader has a reason to remember you.
Here are the angles lifestyle readers tend to enjoy. Pick the one that sounds most like you. A single honest story with concrete detail is more convincing than a piece that covers everything you do.
What weakens a pitch
- Health promises. We do not write that a product, food or practice treats, cures or prevents anything. Features describe the experience and the approach instead.
- Nothing a reader can try. A feature about a business that is not yet open or a product not yet available gives people nowhere to go.
- Superlatives without detail. “The best”, “unique” and “made with love” appear everywhere. What the food tastes like or how the service works is what readers remember.
- Every offering in one piece. A feature that lists the full menu, range or program reads like a brochure. One story, clearly told, serves you better.

Strategy
A short consultation covers you, your business or book, your customers and your timing. If Female First is not the right outlet for your goal, we say so.
